We may also disclose information where required by law, legal process or a competent authority.

7. Third-Party Services & Embedded Content

The website may contain links to or embedded content from third-party platforms and services, including social media, video, portfolio, music or other external platforms.

Where non-essential cookies or similar technologies require your consent under applicable law, appropriate consent mechanisms will be used.

Because the cookies and technologies used by a website can change when new services or features are added, this section may be updated from time to time.

9. How We Protect Your Information

EKKO KEMETIX STUDIOS takes reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

However, no method of transmitting or storing information online can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Visitors should therefore understand that internet communications carry inherent security risks.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including where necessary to meet legal, accounting, contractual or reporting requirements.

The appropriate retention period will depend on the nature of the information and why it is being held.

When information is no longer required, it will be securely deleted or otherwise disposed of where reasonably practicable.
