DATA, SOURCES AND PURPOSES
This policy covers OVEL’s professional contacts. The data processed may include your name, role, company, business contact details and the content of our correspondence. It comes from your emails, professional meetings or, where relevant, public professional sources or referrals. If data is collected indirectly, you will be informed of its source and given the relevant information no later than our first contact and, in principle, within one month of collection.
Responding to enquiries and preparing or managing a project is based on pre-contractual steps or a contract when you are a party to it; for representatives of a company, it is based on our legitimate interest in managing the professional relationship. We request only the information needed to handle your enquiry.
OVEL may also send film and audiovisual professionals news or proposals relevant to their work, based on its legitimate interest in developing professional relationships. Each message identifies OVEL and provides a simple, free way to opt out, including by replying to the email. Contacting OVEL does not automatically subscribe you to a newsletter.

PROFESSIONAL USE
RETENTION, RECIPIENTS AND SECURITY
Enquiries that do not lead to further work are kept while being handled, then for no more than one year after closure. Prospect data used for marketing is retained for three years from collection or the last contact initiated by the prospect. A message sent by OVEL does not restart this period. Data needed to manage a project is kept throughout the relationship, then archived only as required by legal obligations and applicable limitation periods.
If you object to marketing, only the information needed to respect your choice is kept on a suppression list for at least three years, solely for this purpose.
Data is accessible to Olivier Villeaud and, as needed for a project, only to authorised people and necessary service providers. The website and the contact@ovelfx.com mailbox are hosted by o2switch in France. Contacts are neither sold nor rented. Access to data is limited to professional needs.
No newsletter service such as Mailchimp is currently used for these contacts. If such a service is adopted, this policy will be updated to identify the provider and, where applicable, any transfers outside the European Economic Area and the safeguards used.

EXERCISING YOUR RIGHTS · BROWSING
Subject to the conditions of the GDPR, you have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction and objection, as well as data portability where applicable. You may object to marketing at any time, free of charge and without giving a reason. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.
To exercise your rights, email contact@ovelfx.com. We will normally respond within one month; this period may be extended under the conditions set out in the GDPR. Proof of identity will only be requested if there is reasonable doubt. You may also lodge a complaint with the French data protection authority, the CNIL: www.cnil.fr.
The website currently has no data collection form, audience analytics or advertising. Fonts, animation libraries and the video player are hosted locally. Technical website and hosting functions may process connection data, including IP addresses, for operation and security. Social media links lead to separate websites governed by their own privacy policies.
This policy will be updated if the uses, tools or controller’s contact details change.
