information submitted through contact, submission or application forms;
technical information such as IP address, browser type, device type and operating system;

We do not seek to collect sensitive personal data unless it is voluntarily provided and necessary for a specific interaction.

We may use personal data to:

respond to enquiries and messages;

receive and evaluate editorial submissions;
publish or otherwise process material submitted to RAW.F where appropriate;

RAW.F does not sell personal data.

4. Editorial Submissions

If you submit photographs, articles, interviews, portfolios, creative work or other material to RAW.F, you may be asked to provide identifying or contact information.

Any personal information submitted in connection with an editorial submission will be used primarily for communication, editorial assessment, publication and related purposes.

The submission of material does not automatically guarantee publication.

Where publication involves identifying an individual, RAW.F may require the necessary permissions, licences or releases depending on the circumstances and the nature of the material.

5. Legal Basis for Processing

Depending on the circumstances, processing may be based on:

your consent;
the performance of a contract or steps taken at your request;
our legitimate interests, where these do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms;
compliance with a legal obligation.

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

6. Sharing of Personal Data

RAW.F does not sell or rent personal information to third parties.

Personal data may be shared with service providers where this is necessary for the operation of the website or the provision of a service, such as website hosting, technical support, analytics or email services.

Where third-party services process personal data on our behalf, appropriate contractual and organisational safeguards will be used where required.

Some service providers may process information outside the European Economic Area. Where this occurs, appropriate safeguards required under applicable data protection law will be applied.

7. Third-Party Content

The RAW.F website may contain links to or embedded content from third-party platforms, including social media and other websites.

When you interact with such content, the relevant third party may process information according to its own privacy policy and terms.

RAW.F does not control the privacy practices of external websites.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or for as long as required by law. The retention period may vary depending on the type of information and the nature of the relationship with RAW.F.

9. Your Rights

Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to:

request access to your personal data;
request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
request deletion of your personal data;
request restriction of processing;

10. Security

RAW.F takes reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. However, no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Some cookies are technically necessary for the website to operate properly.

They may, for example, help with:

Some content or functionality incorporated into the website may be provided by third parties.

For example, RAW.F may use embedded or linked content from social media, video platforms, analytics providers or other external services.
