6. How else might we use your personal data

In addition to the information set out above, the following sections describe other specific uses of personal data by some Musichap affiliates.

Below, we provide you with further details about how we process your personal data in connection with any content creation / production purposes.

Content creation / production activities

Some Musichap entities are in the business of content production. We may process your personal data for these TV, film, marketing, advertising or other related content creation, production and distribution activities.

What personal data do we process in connection with production activities?

The personal data that we process for production purposes include images and footage of you and may include your location at the time of filming.
If you are a member of public, we will diligently attempt to make you aware of our location and filming activities in advance and will give you an opportunity not to enter the location where filming is taking place and participate in them.
If you are a focus of our filming activities (i.e. a contributor or talent such as an interviewee, extra or actor, as opposed to a member of public) we will also collect and process your name, contact information and any other information provided in any pre-filming questionnaires and/or release forms, such as next of kin details.
We may also collect and process special categories of data a such as health or disability information to the extent that this is necessary to enable us to make any necessary adjustments to our filming arrangements to assist or support you.

If you have any questions on data privacy aspects of our production activities, please contact us.
