Privacy Notice

Last updated: October 2026

1. Who I am

I am an independent screen actor and the owner of this website. I respect your privacy and am committed to handling your personal information responsibly.

If you have any questions about this notice or how your information is used, you can contact me at: madeleinepoppyacting@gmail.com.

2. Information I collect

Information you provide

If you contact me through the contact form on this website, I will collect the information you provide, such as your name, email address and message.

Information collected automatically

This website is hosted by Squarespace. When you visit, certain information may be collected automatically to help the website function, including your IP address, browser, device and network information, the page you visited before arriving at my website, and the pages you view.

If Squarespace Analytics is enabled, additional information may be collected, such as clicks, links followed, scrolling activity, searches and visit timestamps.

3. How I use your information

I use the information I collect to:

  • Respond to enquiries and messages sent through the contact form.

  • Manage professional correspondence and acting opportunities.

  • Operate, maintain and protect my website.

  • Understand how visitors use the website, if analytics is enabled.

I generally process contact information because it is in my legitimate interests to respond to professional enquiries and manage my acting work. Where relevant, processing may also be necessary to take steps at your request before entering into an agreement.

4. Contact form, website hosting and third-party links

If you contact me through the form on this website, I will collect the information you provide, such as your name, email address and message. This information will be sent to my email so I can respond to your enquiry and manage professional correspondence, including acting opportunities.

The website is hosted by Squarespace, which provides the website and contact-form functionality. Your information may be processed by Squarespace as part of providing these services. Depending on the form settings, submissions may also be stored within Squarespace.

This website may contain links to my professional profile on Spotlight, where my acting showreels may be available, and to SoundCloud, where my voice reels and singing recordings are hosted.

When you click one of these links, you will leave my website and visit the relevant third-party platform. Spotlight and SoundCloud may collect and process information about your visit or activity in accordance with their own privacy policies. I do not control how these platforms collect or use your information.

You can read more about Squarespace's privacy practices here:

Please also refer to the privacy policies published by Spotlight and SoundCloud for information about how they handle personal data.

These providers may process information outside the UK. Where required, appropriate safeguards should be in place for international transfers.

5. Cookies and similar technologies

This website may use cookies and similar technologies.

  • Essential cookies: Squarespace may use these to help the website function properly and securely.

  • Analytics cookies: If Squarespace Analytics is enabled, these may help me understand how visitors use the website.

  • External links: Clicking links to Spotlight or SoundCloud takes you to their respective platforms, which may use their own cookies and similar technologies. Simply linking to these platforms does not necessarily mean their cookies are set on my website. Clicking play within this website on voice reels may send cookies to Soundcloud.

Where required by law, non-essential cookies and similar technologies should only be used after you have given consent. You can manage your preferences through this website's cookie settings, where available.

6. How long I keep your information

I will keep contact-form enquiries for only as long as reasonably necessary to respond, manage relevant professional correspondence or meet any legal obligations.

Information held by Squarespace or other service providers may be retained in accordance with their own policies and the settings used on this website.

7. Your privacy rights

Under applicable UK data protection law, you may have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal information.

  • Ask for inaccurate information to be corrected.

  • Request that your information be deleted.

  • Ask for processing to be restricted or object to certain uses.

  • Request a copy of information you have provided.

  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on your consent.

To exercise your rights, contact me at madeleinepoppyacting@gmail.com

You can also find information about your rights and how to raise a concern on the Information Commissioner’s Office website: https://ico.org.uk/.

8. Keeping your information secure

I take reasonable steps to protect personal information and limit access to it. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

9. Changes to this notice

I may update this Privacy Notice if my website, the services I use or my data-handling practices change. The latest version will be published on this page, with the updated date shown above.
