1. Introduction
At Mimic Cartoon, your privacy is our priority. This privacy policy details not only the types of information we collect when you visit or interact with any of our websites, but also how and why we use, store, and protect your data. This policy is designed to help you make informed choices about the data you share and understand your rights under privacy laws.
Applicable privacy laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), provide rights and obligations for personal-data processing. The technical preferences described below do not by themselves establish a legal basis or replace prior consent where it is required.
3. What Personal Data We Collect
We gather personal and non-personal information whenever you interact with our websites. This ensures we can provide our services and improve your experience.
Contact details: such as your name, email address, and any information you provide in forms or emails.
Technical information: including your IP address, browser, device, operating system and access times as processed by Wix services.
Approximate location: Wix may derive approximate location from technical connection information. This website does not request precise device location.
Usage patterns: information about visits and pages viewed when optional analytics is allowed. Automatic click tracking is disabled in the current site settings.
Communication records: history of your correspondence with us (messages, support requests, etc.).
How this information is collected:
When you send an enquiry using the website forms
While browsing the site, via automated tools and cookies
When your browser requests website media, including images and videos
Through direct communications (phone, email, etc.)

5. Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data
Under GDPR and global privacy laws, we must have a valid legal basis for processing your personal data. This can include:
Consent: When you voluntarily sign up for newsletters or agree to cookies.
Contract: When processing your data is necessary to provide a service you requested.
Legal Obligation: When data retention or disclosure is required by law.
Legitimate Interest: When necessary for business operations—such as fraud prevention or website optimization—provided your fundamental rights don’t override these interests.
6. Cookies and Wix Analytics
This website uses Wix hosting and forms. Necessary technical processing supports security, page delivery and enquiries. Wix Analytics helps us understand visits and page use; it may process technical information such as browser and device details, page addresses, approximate location and session information.
The current site defaults allow analytics and functional session cookies, with advertising and third-party data permissions disabled. This is an opt-out setup. A saved Wix visitor choice takes precedence; a previous rejection is not reset on a later visit. Functional session-cookie permission and analytics permission are both needed for Wix session reporting.
You can turn analytics and functional session cookies off using the controls below. The website and enquiry forms remain available. Saving refreshes the page after Wix confirms the change. Withdrawal affects future optional analytics; it does not delete earlier data or necessarily remove existing cookies. If saving fails, the page explains the failure and lets you try again.
The old informational popup has been removed. Its previous Accept button only recorded dismissal and did not obtain consent. That dismissal is not used to change your Wix permissions.
After an enquiry is successfully saved, the browser may send one Lead event if the effective Wix analytics policy permits it. We do not add form contents, names, email addresses, messages or submission identifiers to this analytics event. Enquiry details are separately processed in Wix to answer your request.
Analytics preferences
Choose whether Wix Analytics and functional session cookies may run in this browser. Advertising and third-party data permissions stay off when saving either choice. Saving reloads this page. Essential website functions stay available.

7. Services used by this website
Wix provides website hosting, enquiry storage and the analytics described above. Fonts are served with this website. Some media is delivered through Wix-hosted URLs. Social links open the selected external platform when you choose them; those platforms have their own privacy policies.
Google Analytics (GA4), Google Tag Manager and advertising pixels have not been connected by this analytics update. Optional analytics is not required to send an enquiry. Contact info@mimiccartoon.com for questions about personal-data processing or your rights.
8. Your Rights Under the GDPR
If you are located in the EU, you have rights related to your personal data:
Right to access: You can ask to see what personal data we hold about you.
Right to rectification: If your data is inaccurate or incomplete, you can request a correction.
Right to erasure: Under certain circumstances, you may request deletion of your data (“right to be forgotten”).
Right to restrict processing: You may ask us to limit how we use your personal data.
Right to object: You can object to certain types of data processing, such as direct marketing.
Right to data portability: You can request your data be transferred to another service provider.
Right to withdraw consent: You may withdraw consent for processing at any time, affecting future use.
To exercise your rights, email us at info@mimiccartoon.com. We will respond promptly and in line with GDPR requirements.
9. Data Retention Policy
We keep your personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes it was collected, or to meet legal or regulatory needs.
Contact form submissions: Retained for up to 12 months.
Analytics: retention depends on Wix's service and account settings. Contact us for information about the retention period applicable to your request.
Newsletter subscriptions: Held until you choose to unsubscribe or request deletion.
Data is securely deleted or anonymized once no longer needed. We regularly review and update our data retention practices for compliance.
10. Data Security Measures
We take data security seriously and implement technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, or disclosure.
Our protective measures include:
Data encryption (SSL/TLS) for secure communications
Secure hosting on reputable platforms
Firewalls and intrusion detection systems
Limited data access (only authorized personnel can access your information)
Regular data backups and system monitoring
Despite robust measures, 100% security cannot be guaranteed. We recommend not sharing sensitive data via email or other insecure channels.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We review and update this privacy policy regularly to ensure transparency and compliance with legal requirements and best practices. Significant updates will be clearly posted on our website and/or communicated via email if you subscribe to our list.
We aim to respond to all requests in a timely and helpful manner.
BEFORE WE ROLL
Studio answers.
A few useful answers before your character’s first scene.
Q / 01
How do I turn analytics off?
Open Analytics preferences on this page or from any footer. Turn off analytics and session cookies, then wait for the saved choice to refresh the page. Your saved Wix rejection takes precedence over the site default. The website and enquiry forms remain available.
Q / 02
What is enabled by default?
Wix analytics and functional session cookies are enabled by default. Advertising and third-party data permissions are disabled. This is an opt-out configuration, not a record of affirmative consent. Existing saved visitor choices take precedence. GA4 and Google Tag Manager have not been connected by this update.
Q / 03
Does the former Accept button grant analytics permission?
No. The retired informational notice only saved a dismissal. Its localStorage flag is not consent and is not used to overwrite saved Wix preferences. There is no automatic informational popup.
Q / 04
What happens when I submit a project brief?
The form sends your contact details and message to Mimic Cartoon through Wix so the studio can reply. After Wix confirms success, the browser may send one Lead event if the effective Wix analytics policy permits it. No form values, personal details or submission identifiers are added to that event.
Q / 05
Does turning analytics off delete earlier data?
No. Changing your preferences affects future optional analytics after the choice is saved and the page refreshes. It does not erase data already collected or necessarily remove existing cookies. Contact info@mimiccartoon.com about privacy requests.
