Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 2026. This policy covers the websites and services operated by Ibitoye Media Group (IMG), including ToyeToons Animation Studio.
1.Who we are
Ibitoye Media Group (IMG) is the data controller for this website and for the ToyeToons Animation Studio brand. This policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, and the choices you have.
If you have any questions about this policy or how we handle your data, you can contact our privacy team at privacy@ibitoyemediagroup.com.
2.The data we collect
Contact details — such as your name and email address — when you write to us, apply for a role, or subscribe to studio news.
Usage data — pages visited, time on page, device and browser type, and approximate location derived from your IP address — collected through privacy-respecting analytics so we can understand which stories and features people enjoy.
Application materials — CVs, portfolios, showreels, and references — when you apply for a career with the studio.
3.How we use your data
To respond to enquiries and deliver any updates you have asked to receive.
To operate, secure, and improve our websites and content.
To assess job applications and manage our recruitment process.
We do not sell your personal data, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing.
4.Lawful bases
Under the UK GDPR and the EU GDPR we process personal data only where we have a lawful basis: your consent (for example, newsletters), our legitimate interests (running and improving the site), performance of a contract or pre-contract steps (recruitment), or compliance with a legal obligation.
Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
5.Cookies
We use a small number of cookies: strictly necessary cookies that keep the site working, and optional analytics cookies that help us understand how the site is used. Optional cookies are only set with your consent, and you can change your choice at any time.
6.How long we keep data
We keep personal data only for as long as it is needed for the purpose it was collected. Enquiry emails are retained for up to 24 months; unsuccessful job applications for up to 12 months; analytics data is aggregated or anonymised within 14 months.
7.International transfers
Where personal data is transferred outside the UK or EEA, we rely on adequacy regulations or appropriate safeguards such as the International Data Transfer Agreement or EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
8.Your rights
You have rights over your personal data under UK and EU law — including access, correction, erasure, and objection. These are explained in full on our UK & EU Privacy Rights page.
9.Complaints
If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, please contact us first so we can put things right. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) or your local EU supervisory authority.
