Controller

ELITE MODELS MANAGEMENT COPENHAGEN ApS – Østergade 55, 3rd floor – 1100 Copenhagen – Denmark, part of the Elite World Group (EWG), determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

   

What is the purpose of processing?

This Privacy Notice relates to our scouting activities aimed at finding new talents for our modelling services.

   

How we get your personal data and what is the data collected?

  • Many potential models have public accounts on social networks in order to promote themselves via videos, stories, reels and posts: we take a look at these publications and where we find a case of possible interest, we take note of the data that can be useful for our services, in the event you have decided to make them publicly available
  • In the event we meet you casually on the street or at an event, we will ask for your contact details directly, as well as some pictures of you, and some other data such as age and gender
  • If you do a walk-in at our offices and you go through the usual internal process, you share your contact details/pictures/physical measurements, age and gender
  • If you voluntarily, by email or regular mail or by any other means of communication, send us your contact details and/or pictures and/or physical measurements or other data about yourself
  • If someone you relied on to promote your image as a possible talent, contacts us by regular mail or email or by any other means of communication or physically comes to our offices and provides us with your contact details and/or photos and/or physical measurements or other data about you
 

In case you fill in a specific form, you can always access to the specific Privacy Notice made available on our resources (website, APP, paper document) or here.

   

Legal basis for processing

The legal basis is our legitimate interest in finding new potential talent among those who have voluntarily made their data public because they wish to promote themselves.
On the other hand, the legal basis is to take action at the request of the data subjects before entering into a possible contract with us, for those who have communicated their data to us (directly or through their agents) always with the aim of promoting themselves.
Where the data collected as reported above includes sensitive (*) data, it can be treated because the processing relates to personal data which are manifestly made public by the data subject.
(*) data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, data concerning health or data concerning a natural person's sex life or sexual orientation
