Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains what information Media Arts Awards collects through this website, why, and the choices you have.

01Information we collect

We only collect information you choose to share with us:

  • Mailing list: your email address, whether you opted in to optional news, the page you signed up from and the time of signup.
  • Contact form: your name, email address, subject and message.
  • Abuse prevention: a one-way hashed (non-reversible) form of your IP address, used only to limit spam and repeated submissions.

02How we use it

  • To send launch announcements, award updates and submission news you signed up for.
  • To send occasional program news, only if you opted in.
  • To respond to messages you send us.
  • To protect the website and its forms from abuse.

03Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers that help us operate this website and our communications, under appropriate safeguards, or where required by law.

04Retention

We keep mailing list information until you unsubscribe, and contact messages for as long as needed to respond and keep a reasonable record of our correspondence.

05Your choices and rights

You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in our emails or by contacting us. Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to access, correct or delete your personal information.

06Security

Mailing list and contact data are stored in a secured database that is not publicly accessible. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information.

07Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as Media Arts Awards grows, for example when award submissions open. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last updated.
