This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information about you when you visit our website at livesociety.co.uk, submit an application to join our creator network, or communicate with us in any way.

Please read this policy carefully. If you disagree with its terms, please stop using our site and services.

1. Who We Are

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you:

• Create or use a Creator Portal account

The personal information we collect may include your name, email address, TikTok handle, follower count, content niche, and any other information you choose to provide in your application or correspondence.

We do not collect any special category data (such as health information, religious beliefs, or political opinions) and we ask that you do not submit such information to us.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• To manage your creator account and the services we provide to you
• To share relevant performance data and campaign information with you
• To meet our legal and regulatory obligations
• To improve our website and services

We will only use your personal information for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason compatible with the original purpose.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), we process your personal data on the following legal bases:

• Contract: Processing is necessary to take steps at your request prior to entering a contract, or to perform a contract we have with you.
• Legitimate interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided these are not overridden by your rights and interests.
• Legal obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject.
• Consent: Where you have given us explicit consent to process your data for a specific purpose.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data to any third party. We may share your information with:

• TikTok: As an official TikTok LIVE Creator Network, we share relevant creator data with TikTok as required to operate the network, manage campaigns, and process creator registrations. TikTok's own privacy policy governs the data they hold about you as a TikTok user.
• Service providers: Third-party suppliers who provide services on our behalf, such as website hosting, email, and analytics tools. These providers are contractually required to keep your data secure and not to use it for their own purposes.
• Legal authorities: Where required by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of Live Society or others.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including meeting legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. If your creator application is unsuccessful, we will retain your data for up to 12 months in case a future opportunity arises, unless you ask us to delete it sooner. If you are an active creator in our network, we retain your data for the duration of your membership and for a period of up to three years thereafter.
