How we use your personal data
We use the personal data we collect from you for a range of different business purposes according to different legal bases of processing and subject to the choices you make in your account Settings. We do this with the help of automated systems and decision making. Please be aware that when we refer to automated decision making, we will not use any profiling that produces legal effects concerning you or, similarly, significantly affects you. Automated decisions are concerned with content that may be more relevant for you than other content. We use your personal data to:
- Maintain a Safe and Secure Environment – We also process your personal data in light of our legitimate interest in improving the security of the Platform (including the security of your personal data) in order to give our users the best experience, and where it is necessary for the adequate performance of our contract with you (e.g. Terms of Use). This includes:
- The detection and prevention of fraud, spam, abuse, security incidents, and other suspicious activity.
- The verification and authentication of your identity to prevent unauthorized or illegal activity.
- The enhancement of the safety and security of our products and services.
- The conducting of security investigations and risk assessments.
- The prevention or action against activities that are, or may be, in breach of our Terms of Use, Community Guidelines or applicable law.
- The ability to provide you with customer and technical support.
- Provide, Improve, and Develop the Platform – We process your personal data primarily for the adequate performance of our contract with you (e.g. Terms of Use). We may also process your personal data in light of our legitimate interest in improving the Platform and giving our users the best experience. We do this to:
Newsletters – If you register on our website to receive our newsletter, we collect your email address and your name and save this information together with the date of registration and your IP address. We will send the newsletter directly using a third-party system (MailChimp or Brevo). We will save your personal data until you withdraw your consent (unsubscribe from the newsletter) and for technical reasons beyond this for a maximum of 21 days. This processing is based on your consent. By unsubscribing from the newsletter, you can withdraw your consent at any time with future effect.
Market Research Studies – As part of our interest, we may periodically invite you to engage in market research studies and surveys, or to contribute to research initiatives using anonymized and/or pseudonymized data. Your participation in these studies is entirely voluntary, and your consent guides your involvement in each survey. We consider the application of anonymized and/or pseudonymized data to be aligned with our legitimate interest, utilizing such analyses solely to enhance our research and Platform. This commitment aims to better understand your requirements and elevate your experience. Any data you provide when participating in a market study may also be utilized for tailored product recommendations or notifications, based on the consent you’ve provided prior to engaging in the study.
Who we share your data with
If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Our Activity On Social Networks
We manage a number of profiles and pages on third party social networks; this allow us to communicate with you on third party social networks and inform you about our services. If you visit our pages on any of these third party social media pages, we and the provider of the third party social media network are joint controllers regarding the processing operations thereby triggered, which concern your personal data. We are not the original provider of these pages, but only use them within the scope of the options offered to us by the respective providers.
For our EU/EEA based users, we would like to point out that your personal data may also be processed outside of the EU or the EEA. Use of these networks may therefore involve data protection risks for you since the protection of your rights may be difficult, e.g. your right to information, erasure, objection, etc. Processing on social networks frequently takes place directly for advertising purposes or for the analysis of user behavior by network providers, and we have no control over this. If the provider creates user profiles, cookies are often used or user behavior may be assigned directly to your own member profile on the respective social network (if you are logged in).
The processing operations of personal data described are carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests and the legitimate interests of the respective provider in order to communicate with you in a timely manner or to inform you about our services. If you get asked to grant your consent to the respective providers to process your personal data as a user, your consent is the legal basis for this processing.
Since we have no access to these providers’ databases, we would like to point out that you would be best situated to exercise your rights (e.g. to information, rectification, erasure, etc.) directly with the respective provider. More information on the processing of your personal data on social networks and your options for exercising your right to object or your right of revocation (opt out) is listed below for each of the social network providers we use:

What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Exercising Your EU Privacy Rights
If you are a user residing in the EU/EEA, you may exercise any of the rights described in this section through the Help Center or by contacting us at privacy@atlfilmjobs.com. Please note that we may ask you to verify your identity before taking further action on your request.
- Data Access and Portability – You may be entitled to request copies of your personal data held by us. While a lot of the personal data you provide to us can be accessed in your account settings, you may also be entitled to request copies of personal data you have provided to us in machine-readable format.
- Change or Correct Data – Where you cannot update personal data yourself through an account, you have the right to ask us to correct, change, update or rectify your personal data.
- Data Retention and Deletion – We generally retain personal data for as long as is necessary to provide services to you under your account, i.e. as long as your contract is ongoing and for the sake of legal obligations, for 3 years following the end of the year in which your contract was canceled – or, for as long as is necessary to provide the Platform to you as a unregistered user. You have the right to ask us to delete all or some of the personal data we hold about you. If you have an account, you can also delete your account through the Settings at any time as described below. We may need to retain some of your personal data even after you have closed your account if reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations (e.g. under applicable tax or commercial law or to prevent fraud and abuse and maintain and enhance security). Afterwards, we delete the personal data immediately, unless we need the personal data until the expiry of the statutory period of limitation for the purpose of providing evidence for civil law claims or because of statutory storage obligations (e.g. for accounting reasons).
- Objection to Processing – You have the right to object to processing your personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation at any time (in particular, where we don’t have to process the personal data to meet a contractual or other legal requirement, or where we are using the personal data on the basis of our legitimate interests). If you object to such processing, we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for such processing or such processing is required for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or obligations. Where your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object to such processing of your personal data at any time and ask us to cease processing your data for these direct marketing purposes. However, please be aware that any objection to processing will not necessarily have an impact on the personal data processing before such objection was made, thus such processing will generally be deemed as permissible and will be subject to the usual retention and deletion periods.
- Restriction of Processing – You have the right to restrict the processing of your personal data where one of the following applies: your personal data is not accurate anymore; the processing is unlawful and instead of erasing the personal data you request the restriction of use; the personal data is no longer needed by us but required by you for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; you have objected to the use and the decision on the legitimate grounds for objection is pending.
- Withdrawing Consent – Where you provide consent to the processing of your personal data by Atlanta Film Jobs, you may withdraw your consent at any time by changing your account Settings or by sending a communication to Atlanta Film Jobs specifying the specific consent you are withdrawing. Please note that the withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing activities based on such consent before its withdrawal.
- Lodging Complaints – You have the right to lodge complaints about the data processing activities carried out by Atlanta Film Jobs before a competent data protection authority. A list of EU data protection authorities is available here.
