Privacy notice

Last updated: 25 October 2026

Who we are

Mr Rhinehart trading as Rhinehart Studio (a sole trader based in Scotland, UK) is the controller of the personal data described here. Contact: hello@rhinehartstudio.com.

This notice covers our services: the AI Ad Studio (rhinehartstudio.com/ads), Clip Studio (rhinehartstudio.com/clips), the UK Website Compliance Check (rhinehartstudio.com/sitecheck) and the Compliance Monitor (rhinehartstudio.com/monitor).

This website

This website sets no cookies and uses no analytics or tracking. Our hosting provider (Cloudflare) processes basic technical data such as IP addresses to deliver and protect the site.

Business outreach

What we hold: company name, website, and the generic business email address published on your website (for example hello@ or info@), plus a record of our messages and any reply.

Where we got it: your company's own public website, and public information such as Companies House records and advertising libraries (for example the Meta Ad Library).

Why we hold it (lawful basis): legitimate interests (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f)): offering a relevant business service to a company. We only email corporate addresses, we send no more than three messages, and every message lets you opt out.

How long we keep it: if you don't reply, we delete your details 90 days after our last message. If you opt out, we keep only your domain on a suppression list so that we never contact you again.

Customers

What we hold: your name, email, billing details (processed by Stripe; we never see full card numbers), and what you send us: for the AI Ad Studio, your brief and files; for the Compliance Check and Monitor, your website address and company number; for Clip Studio, the videos you send us and the transcripts we make from them.

Clip Studio videos: we transcribe your videos on our own computer (no third-party transcription service). We delete source videos and working files 30 days after delivery, or sooner if you ask. If your videos show other people, you are responsible for having their permission.

Why we hold it: to perform our contract with you (Article 6(1)(b)) and to meet our legal and tax obligations (Article 6(1)(c)). We keep these records for 6 years, as tax law requires.

Compliance Check and Monitor scans: we only scan pages that are publicly visible on your website. We don't log in or access any non-public systems.

Who we share data with

Stripe (payments), our email provider, Cloudflare (website hosting), and the AI video providers used to render ads. We send AI video providers product images and prompts only, never personal data. Some of these providers process data outside the UK; where they do, they rely on UK adequacy regulations or the UK International Data Transfer Addendum.

Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, erase, restrict or object to our use of your data, including objecting to direct marketing at any time.

To use these rights, email hello@rhinehartstudio.com or reply "STOP" to any of our messages. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk) or to your local data protection authority.
