The following notice sets out how personal data is handled on showlixir.com under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. It names the responsible company, the data we receive when you use the site or write to us, the purposes of the processing and the rights you can exercise.
Controller and scope of this policy
showlixir, located at 14 Castle Street Works, Salisbury SP1 1TT, United Kingdom, is responsible for the processing of personal data described here, on every page of showlixir.com and in the correspondence that follows from it. Questions about this notice can be sent to [email protected] or put to us on 01722 410286.

Data processed on this website
Opening this website leaves a few technical traces with our hosting provider: the address of your device, the moment of the visit, the page opened and basic details about the browser. We use them only to run the site safely and to find the cause of technical errors.
Messages sent through the contact form or by email, together with your name, the address we should reply to and any details you add yourself, are kept for as long as it takes to handle the matter you wrote about.
Why we process data
We use data to keep this website online and safe, to reply to the messages we receive, to prepare and carry out agreements with clients and to keep the records our business requires.
Depending on the situation, we rely on your consent, on an agreement with you or the steps that come before it, on a duty imposed on us, or on our legitimate interest in a safe and working website. If you leave out the contact details we ask for, we may not be able to reply.
Cookies and similar technologies
This website uses only technically necessary storage. We do not set advertising cookies, and no analytics service records how you move through our pages or links your visit to other websites.
Your browser lets you review what is kept for this website, erase it and prevent it from being stored again. If you block entries that the site needs in order to function, some pages may not display correctly.
Third parties and transfers
We do not trade in personal data. It reaches only the companies that keep this site online and handle our email on our behalf, bound by contract to our instructions, and the authorities that are entitled to request it.
If a provider operates servers or support staff abroad, data may leave the country in which we are established. We work only with providers who commit to the level of protection that the applicable law requires for such transfers.
Retention
Information is kept no longer than its purpose calls for. Once that purpose has been met and no duty to keep it remains, we erase it or remove everything that would link it to you.
Technical log entries disappear automatically after a short time. Correspondence is kept while it may still be needed, and records that tax or commercial rules require us to keep are held for the period those rules set.
Your rights
You have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict its processing, to object to processing based on legitimate interests and to receive your data in a portable format. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, a message to [email protected] is enough. To be sure that we are dealing with the right person, we may ask you to confirm your identity; our answer follows within the statutory period and is free of charge.
Besides contacting us, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's data protection regulator.
