Welcome to justhands-on.tv’s Privacy Policy
Hi, we’re Just Hands On TV Ltd (“JHOTV”) and welcome to our privacy policy.
This policy sets out how we handle your personal information if you’re an JHOTV subscriber or visitor to our Site.
When we say “we,” “us,” “our” or ‘JHOTV’ it’s because that’s who we are and we own and run the Site.
When we say “member,” “subscriber,” “user,” “you” or “your” it means any person using the Site.
If we say “policy” we’re talking about this privacy policy.
If we say ‘user terms’ we’re talking about the rules for using the Site.
This policy applies to the processing of information about members and other individuals that we collect when you use our site, which means any website, application, or services we offer, or when you communicate with us.
1. The information we collect
We collect certain personal information about visitors and subscribers of our site as well as attendees of events.
The most common types of information we collect include things like: names, user names, password, email addresses, postal address, payment information such as payment agent details, support queries, content you direct us to make available on our Site (e.g. projects that you would like to share with the JHOTV community), web analytics data and any other data that you choose to provide.
2. How we collect personal information
We collect your personal information when you provide it to us when you complete account registration, buy a subscription, buy a product, provide items or services on our Site, subscribe to an email list, submit feedback, enter a contest, attend a retreat, fill out a survey, or send us a communication.

3. Personal information we collect about you from others
Although we generally collect personal information directly from you, on occasion, we also collect certain categories of personal information about you from other sources, such as Third Party Platforms you elect to use, but only where these third parties either have your consent or are otherwise legally permitted to disclose your information to use. In particular:
– financial and/or transaction details from payment providers located in the US and UK in order to process a transaction;
– third party service providers (like Google, Facebook) who are located in the US or UK, which may provide information about you when you link, connect, or login to your account with the third party provider and they send us information such as your registration and profile from that service. The information varies and is controlled by that service provider or as authorized by you via your privacy settings at that service provider; and
– other third party sources/ and or partners from US or UK, whereby we receive additional information about you (to the extent permitted by applicable law), such as email response date, and combine it with information we have about you. We also receive information about you as a rights holder from our third party authors. For example, information in the form of a model release when your image is used in an item made available on our Site.

Before making your information publicly available or giving your information to anyone else, think carefully.

The information we retain will be handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

16. If you’re a user or visitor in the European Economic Area these rights also apply to you:

You also have rights to object to some processing that is based on our legitimate interests, such as profiling that we perform for the purposes of direct marketing, and, where we have asked for your consent to process your data, to withdraw this consent as more fully described below.
These rights are limited in some situations – for example, we can demonstrate that we have a legal requirement to process your personal information. In some instances, this means that we may retain some data even if you withdraw your consent.
Where we require your personal information to comply with legal or contractual obligations, then provision of such data is mandatory: if such data is not provided, then we will not be able to manage our contractual relationship with you, or to meet obligations placed on us. In all other cases, provision of requested personal information is optional.
If you have unresolved concerns you also have the right to complain to data protection authorities. The relevant data protection authority will be the data protection authority of the country: (i) of your habitual residence; (ii) of your place of work; or (iii) in which you consider the alleged infringement has occurred.
