UK GDPR Compliance

Macklowe Art & Architecture is committed to respecting your data protection rights under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR). This page explains how we comply with these rights, even though we do not collect personal data through registration or databases.

Scope and Applicability

The UK GDPR applies to the processing of personal data of individuals in the United Kingdom. While Macklowe Art & Architecture does not require users to register or store personal information in a database, we may automatically collect limited data through website analytics and server logs — such as IP addresses, browser type, and usage patterns — for the purpose of understanding audience engagement and improving content delivery.

Your Rights Under UK GDPR

Under the UK GDPR, you have the following rights:

• Right of access: You may request confirmation of whether we process any personal data about you.
• Right to rectification: You may request correction of any inaccurate personal data we hold.
• Right to erasure: You may request deletion of your personal data, where applicable.
• Right to restriction of processing: You may request we limit how we use your data.
• Right to data portability: You may request a copy of your data in a structured, commonly used format.
• Right to object: You may object to our processing of your data based on legitimate interest.
• Right to withdraw consent: If consent was the legal basis for processing, you may withdraw it at any time.

How We Comply

We do not store personal data in identifiable databases. Any data collected via analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) is aggregated and anonymised. We use cookies only for functional and analytical purposes, with no tracking across third-party sites. We do not sell or share personal data with advertisers or third parties.

Data We Process

The only personal data we may process includes:

• IP addresses (anonymised where possible)
• Browser and device information
• Pages visited and time spent on site
• Cookie identifiers (for session and analytics purposes)

This data is not linked to any individual’s name, email, or contact details.

Legal Basis for Processing

Our processing of data is based on legitimate interest — specifically, to improve website functionality, understand visitor behaviour, and ensure content reaches those interested in art and architecture. We conduct regular assessments to ensure our interests do not override your rights and freedoms.

How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of your rights under the UK GDPR, please contact us via email at [email protected]. Include your name, the right you wish to exercise, and any relevant details (e.g., IP address or date of visit if known). We will respond without undue delay.

Response Timeframes

We aim to respond to all requests within one month of receipt. In complex cases, this may be extended by two further months, and we will inform you if this is necessary.

No Discrimination Policy

You will not be denied access to our content, charged fees, or treated differently in any way for exercising your rights under the UK GDPR.

Updates and Changes

We may update this compliance page periodically to reflect changes in law or our practices. The most recent version will always be posted here with an updated effective date.
