Privacy Policy

Last updated: 27 August 2026.

Who is responsible for your information

Bare Edit is an independent editorial studio operated by Shaan Khan from London, United Kingdom. Shaan Khan is the controller of personal information handled through this website and Bare Edit's business activities.

For privacy questions or requests, email shaankhan@bareedit.com.

Information we collect

When you use the contact form, we collect your name and email address. You may also provide a company or project name, a project description and an expected working cadence. Those additional fields are optional.

If we work together, we may process correspondence, project information, billing details and records needed to provide and manage the agreed services.

For relevant business development, we may use current professional contact information and company information that you have made public or that a legitimate business source lawfully provides. We limit this work to relevant business information.

Our hosting and security systems may process an IP address, browser and request information to deliver the site, prevent misuse and diagnose faults. The contact form uses a one-way hash derived from the submitting IP address for short-term rate limiting. The raw IP address is not included in the enquiry email.

Why we use it

  • To answer enquiries and take steps requested before entering a contract.
  • To deliver, administer and improve agreed client services.
  • To operate and secure the website and business.
  • To make proportionate, relevant business-to-business contact where our legitimate interests support it.
  • To keep financial, legal and suppression records where required.

Depending on the activity, our lawful basis is taking steps at your request, performing a contract, complying with a legal obligation or pursuing a legitimate interest. Where we rely on legitimate interests, we consider the relevance of the contact, the information used and your rights.

Who receives it

We may share information with service providers that support hosting, email, document storage, professional advice and business administration. They receive only what they need for their role. We may also disclose information where the law requires it or where it is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal rights.

We do not sell personal information.

International processing

Some suppliers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where UK data protection law requires safeguards for such a transfer, we use an approved safeguard or rely on another lawful transfer mechanism.

How long we keep it

We keep personal information only for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purpose collected, including responding to enquiries, managing client work, meeting legal and accounting duties, resolving disputes and respecting opt-outs. We then delete or anonymise it where appropriate.

Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may ask for access to your personal information, correction, deletion, restriction, portability or an explanation of how it is used. You may also object to processing based on legitimate interests.

You can object to direct marketing at any time. We will stop using your information for that purpose and may keep the minimum suppression record needed to honour your request.

We do not use solely automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

Questions and complaints

Please email shaankhan@bareedit.com so we can address a privacy concern. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when our services, suppliers or legal duties change. The date above shows the latest revision.
