Effective Date: May 19, 2026
At Yetunde Asif Limited, trading as Asif Studio ("we," "our," or "us"), we are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your personal information when you book our studio space, use our creative services, visit our website, or interact with us.
Please read this policy carefully to understand our practices regarding your personal data.

We may collect and process the following types of personal information:
- Identity Data: First name, last name, and business or brand name.
- Contact Data: Email address, phone number, and billing or business address.
- Financial Data: Payment card details and transaction history. Please note that all transactions are processed securely via our third-party payment processors; we do not store full card details on our servers.
- Booking & Usage Data: Dates and times of your studio rentals, types of creative projects (such as photography, video shoots, or dry hire rentals), and any specific studio requirements or correspondence.
- Technical & Usage Data: IP address, browser type, and information about how you use our website or booking platform (collected via cookies and similar technologies).
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To Manage Bookings: To process your studio reservations, send booking confirmations, manage schedules, and provide access to the space.
- To Process Payments: To securely handle transactions, invoices, and refunds for studio hire or additional services.
- Customer Support: To respond to your inquiries, online consultations, or requests for assistance.
- Studio Security & Safety: To maintain a safe environment within our commercial space, which may include the use of visible CCTV in common entry/exit areas (excluding private changing areas and closed sets).
- Marketing Communication: With your explicit consent, to send you updates about new studio sets, equipment, or special promotions. You can opt out at any time.
- Legal Compliance: To comply with applicable financial, tax, and legal obligations.
3. Sharing and Disclosing Your Data
We do not sell your personal data. We only share your information with trusted third parties necessary to operate our studio:
- Service Providers: Third-party vendors who provide website hosting, booking software, data analysis, and payment processing (such as Stripe or PayPal). These providers only have access to the data needed to perform their specific functions.
- Legal Authorities: If required by law, regulation, or legal process to protect the rights, property, or safety of our studio, our clients, or others.
4. Data Security & Content Privacy
We implement robust administrative, technical, and physical security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
Because Asif Studio operates as a dry hire content studio, please note that clients are entirely responsible for the privacy, security, and licensing of any content, media, footage, or data they capture or record on their own devices while using our physical space.
5. Data Retention
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements (typically up to 7 years for financial and tax records in compliance with UK law).

- Access: The right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Correction: The right to request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): The right to request that we delete your personal data under certain conditions.
- Restriction: The right to object to or restrict the processing of your data.
