The Legal Basis We Have for Processing Your Data
The legal bases on which we process personal data include:
· Consent, where you have explicitly provided it
· Legitimate interests, where processing is necessary for business operations and does not override your rights
We follow the principle of data minimisation, ensuring personal data collected is relevant, adequate, and limited to what is necessary. Typically, this may include business contact information of professionals engaging with our content, services, or partnerships.
We are transparent about how and why we process personal data and strive to keep information accurate and up to date.

How and When We Share Your Personal Data
OceanGen Media Ltd may share personal data where necessary to deliver services, content, or partnership-related materials that may be of interest to you, including sponsored or partner content.
Sponsored Content and Third Parties
From time to time, we may work with third-party partners or sponsors to provide content such as reports, articles, videos, webinars, or events. In order to access such content, you may be asked to provide limited personal data.
We adhere to data minimisation principles, generally limiting data shared to basic professional contact information.
Where personal data is shared with a third-party partner or sponsor:
· You will be informed at the point of data collection
· You may be asked for consent where required
· The third party’s own privacy policy will apply once data is shared
OceanGen Media Ltd does not accept responsibility for the privacy practices of third-party partners.
