Who is responsible
The controller of your personal data is Magic Media & Entertainment Group Ltd, Landscape House, Baldonnell Business Park, Baldonnell, Dublin 22, D22 P3K7, Ireland.
For any question about your data, or to exercise your rights, email privacy@magicmedia.studio.
What we collect and why
When you contact us. If you send us a form or an email, we receive what you give us: usually your name, email address, company, phone number and your message. We use it to answer you and, if you ask about our services, to discuss working together. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries, or taking steps at your request before entering into a contract.
When you apply for a job. We receive your application details and the CV and cover letter you upload, here or through our recruitment system Workable, and use them to assess your application. The legal basis is taking steps at your request before entering into an employment contract.
When you browse the site. Our hosting provider processes technical data (IP address, browser, the page requested) to deliver the site and keep it secure. We count visits with Vercel Web Analytics, which sets no cookies and does not identify you. With your consent we also use the tools listed under "Cookies" below.
Bot protection. Our forms are protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, which checks that a submission comes from a person. It processes technical data about your browser for that purpose only. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in keeping spam and abuse out of our forms.
We do not sell your personal data, and we do not make decisions about you by automated means.
Cookies
Strictly necessary storage is always on: it remembers your cookie choice, in the mm_consent cookie and your browser's local storage, for 180 days. Everything else stays off until you choose otherwise in the cookie banner. You can change your choice at any time with the cookie settings button in the corner of every page.
The tools on this site:
- Google Analytics (Google Ireland Ltd, Analytics): measures how visitors use the site: the pages viewed, time spent and how you arrived. Cookies
_gaand_ga_*, kept up to 2 years.

Under the GDPR you can ask us for a copy of your data, and to correct it, delete it, restrict or object to its use, or receive it in a portable format.
