You can contact us via email. If you contact us, we will collect your email address, name, and any additional information that you choose to provide. We will use the information you give us to review, investigate and respond to your comments or questions as necessary.

How long will we hold your information for?
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes that we collected it for, as explained in this Privacy Policy, and for the purposes of satisfying any legal requirements to which we are subject. Where there are no such requirements, we will hold your personal information in a form which identifies you for as long as appears appropriate based on the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal information and the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal information. We review our retention periods for personal information on a regular basis. If you ask us to delete your information in accordance with your rights set out below, we may retain basic information on a suppression list to record your request and to avoid sending you unwanted materials in the future.
Your Rights
You have rights in relation to the personal information we hold about you. These include the right to request access to your personal data, to request that it is erased, that its processing is restricted, or that any inaccurate personal data is rectified. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details in the ‘Contact Us’ section below. We may ask for proof of identity and sufficient information about your interactions with us so that we can locate your personal information, and ensure that we are only releasing personal information to those entitled to receive it. Where we provide personal data to you (or someone else on your behalf), we will provide it free of charge except in exceptional circumstances.
Affiliated sites
This Site provides links to many of BASE’s member companies and associated agencies working in the field of copyright protection and content promotion (“Non Affiliated Sites”) which may also collect personally identifiable information through various means such as surveys, site registration, chat rooms, bulletin boards, online stores, and contests.

Information concerning visitors to this Site and the Non Affiliated Sites may be shared among BASE and its Non Affiliated Sites.

As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, BASE cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make reasonable efforts to ensure its security on our systems.
