How your personal data is collected
We collect most of this personal data directly from you—via our website and apps. However, we may also collect information:
- from publicly accessible sources, eg Companies House or HM Land Registry or equivalent;
- directly from a third party, eg sanctions screening providers; credit reference agencies; customer due diligence providers;
- from a third party with your consent;
- from cookies on our website—for more information on our use of cookies, please see our cookie policy;
- via our IT systems.
How and why we use your personal data
Under data protection law, we can only use your personal data if we have a proper reason, eg:
- where you have given consent;
- to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations;
- for the performance of a contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract;
- for our legitimate interests or those of a third party.
A legitimate interest is when we have a business or commercial reason to use your personal data, so long as this is not overridden by your own rights and interests. We will carry out an assessment when relying on legitimate interests, to balance our interests against your own.
The table below explains what we use your personal data for and why.
Marketing
We will use your personal data to send you updates (by email, text message, telephone or post) about our products and services, including exclusive offers, promotions or new products and services.
We have a legitimate interest in using your personal data for marketing purposes. You can opt out of marketing communications at any time by contacting legal@blcagency.uk or using unsubscribe links.
We may ask you to confirm or update your marketing preferences if you request further services or if laws change.
We will not share your personal data for marketing outside BLC Management, Ltd. without your explicit consent.
Who we share your personal data with
We routinely share personal data with:
- third parties we use to help deliver our products and services to you, eg payment service providers;
- other third parties we use to help us run our business, eg marketing agencies or website hosts;
- third parties approved by you, eg social media sites you choose to link your account to or third party payment providers;
- credit reference agencies;
- our banks;
- external auditors and professional advisors, e.g., lawyers, accountants, or consultants;
- law enforcement agencies, courts, tribunals, and regulatory bodies to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations;
- other parties that may acquire control or ownership of our business in connection with a significant corporate transaction or restructuring, including a merger, acquisition, or asset sale.
We only allow those organisations to handle your personal data if we are satisfied they take appropriate measures to protect your personal data.
Where your personal data is held
Personal data may be held at our offices and those of our third party agencies, service providers, representatives and agents as described above. Some of these third parties may be based outside the UK/EEA. For more information, including how we safeguard your personal data when this happens, see below: 'Transferring your personal data out of the UK and EEA'.
How long your personal data will be kept
We will not keep your personal data for longer than we need it for the purpose for which it is used. For example, we will only keep your data for five (5) years after you have deleted your account for compliance purposes.
Different retention periods apply for different types of personal data. Further details:
- Account information (e.g., OnlyFans account details, usernames, login credentials): for as long as the account is active and up to five (5) years after closure for compliance and legal purposes.
- Payment and billing information: seven (7) years (tax and financial regulations).
- Marketing preferences and communication records: up to two (2) years after last interaction unless opted out earlier.
- Social media account details (e.g., Telegram usernames) and promotional preferences: as long as required to provide services or until request for deletion.
- Operational and collaboration data shared with partner agencies: up to five (5) years after the collaboration or service agreement ends.
If you no longer have an account with us or we are no longer providing services, we will delete or anonymise your data after the relevant retention period.
Transferring your personal data out of the UK and EEA
It is sometimes necessary for us to transfer your personal data to countries outside the UK and EEA. In these cases we comply with applicable laws.
We may transfer personal data to service providers located outside the UK and EEA where necessary for our operations.
Under data protection law, we can only transfer your data to a country outside the UK/EEA where one of the following applies:
- The UK government has issued an adequacy regulation confirming the destination country ensures an adequate level of protection.
- (For EU transfers) The EU Commission has issued an adequacy decision.
- Appropriate safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) are in place.
- A specific legal exception applies.
Where we transfer your data outside the UK or EEA, we rely on adequacy regulations or Standard Contractual Clauses. If these mechanisms change, we will update this privacy policy accordingly.
