Introduction
Welcome to the privacy policy for Upnext Limited t/a Toon ("Toon," "we," "us," or "our"). Toon respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains how we look after your personal data when you:
- use our website-builder platform, related mobile or desktop applications, or any other online products or services that link to this policy (collectively, the "Services");
- visit our marketing website (the "Website"); or
- visit or interact with a website created with the Services (a "Site").
It also tells you about your privacy rights and how the law protects you.
This policy is provided in a layered format for ease of reference. Please read it together with any other privacy or fair-processing notice we may provide on specific occasions so that you are fully aware of how and why we use your data. This policy supplements other notices and is not intended to override them.
1. Important information and who we are
Purpose of this privacy policy
Our Services allow event promoters and other creators ("Organisers") to build and manage branded websites that promote their content, events, and other related media. Organisers may collect information from visitors and customers ("Consumers") through their Sites (for example, via contact forms, newsletter sign-ups, or in-Site purchases). Depending on the circumstances, Toon may act as a controller(when we collect data for our own purposes, e.g., to provide the platform) or as a processor (when we host data solely on an Organiser's behalf). The Glossary explains these roles in more detail.
Controller
Upnext Limited (registered in Ireland under no. 739293) is the primary controller of personal data processed in connection with the Services, except where we act only on behalf of an Organiser (see clause 5).

When you interact with a Site
If you are a Consumer interacting with a Site (e.g., completing a contact form, subscribing to a newsletter, or making a purchase), the Organiser will receive the data you submit and may use it according to their own privacy policy. Toon is not responsible for the Organiser's use of your data. Please review the Organiser's privacy statement before providing information.
We require all service providers to respect the security of your personal data and treat it in accordance with the law. We do not permit them to use your data for their own purposes and only allow them to process it for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
6. International transfers
We do not transfer your personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA) unless we have put in place appropriate safeguards (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses) or you have explicitly consented. If Toon is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity outside the EEA provided that the parties have executed EU Standard Contractual Clauses or another lawful transfer mechanism.
7. Data security
We have implemented appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered, or disclosed. We limit access to your personal data to employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know and are subject to confidentiality obligations. We have procedures to deal with any suspected personal-data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator where we are legally required to do so.
8. Data retention
We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data, potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes of processing, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means.
9. Your legal rights
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data-protection laws in relation to your personal data, including rights to:
- Request access, correction, or erasure;
- Object to processing or request restriction;
- Request transfer of your data; and
