Privacy Policy

Last updated: 13 November 2026

Fab Design ("we", "us") is an animation studio based in Edinburgh, UK. This policy explains what personal information we collect when you visit fabdesign.info or get in touch with us, why we collect it, and what your rights are.

Fab Design is a partnership between Annarita Milella and Francesco D'Ambrosio.

Who is responsible for your data

Fab Design is the controller of your personal data. If you have any questions about this policy or your data, email us at info@fabdesign.info.

What we collect

  • When you contact us, through the contact form, by email or by phone: your name, email address, phone number if you give it, your company name, and anything you write in your message.

  • When you work with us: contact and billing details, and the project information we need to deliver the work.

  • When you browse the site: basic technical information such as your browser, device, approximate location (country or city) and the pages you visit. Our website platform, Squarespace, collects this through cookies. See "Cookies" below.

We don't sell your data, and we don't use it for automated decision-making.

Why we use it, and our legal basis

  • To reply to your enquiry and talk about a possible project. This is our legitimate interest in responding to people who contact us, or a step you have asked us to take before a contract.

  • To deliver and invoice projects. This is needed to perform our contract with you, and to meet legal duties such as keeping accounting records.

  • To understand how the website is used and improve it. This is based on your consent, given through the cookie banner.

If you sign up to receive our blog posts or news by email, we will only send them to you because you asked us to, and you can unsubscribe at any time.

Who we share it with

We use trusted services to run the studio, and they process data for us:

  • Squarespace, which hosts our website, contact form and site analytics.

  • Google, for email and documents.

  • Vimeo and YouTube, which play the videos embedded on our site and may set their own cookies when you play a video.

Some of these companies store data outside the UK, for example in the US. When that happens, they use legal safeguards approved under UK data protection law.

We may also share information if the law requires it.

How long we keep it

  • Enquiries that don't lead to a project: up to 2 years, then deleted.

  • Client and billing records: 6 years after the end of the financial year they relate to, as UK tax law requires.

  • Analytics data: kept according to Squarespace's settings.

Cookies

Our site uses cookies. Some are essential to make the site work. Others, such as analytics cookies, are only set if you accept them in the cookie banner. You can change your choice at any time through the cookie settings link at the bottom of the page, or block cookies in your browser.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you can ask us to:

  • give you a copy of the personal data we hold about you

  • correct anything that's wrong

  • delete your data

  • restrict or object to how we use it

  • move your data to another service

Where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time. To use any of these rights, email info@fabdesign.info. We'll reply within one month.

If you're unhappy with how we handle your data, please tell us first so we can put it right. You also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO): ico.org.uk or 0303 123 1113.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page.
