Privacy Policy

Shellac Global Entertainment LLC ("Shellac," "we," "us," or "our") operates the Shellac Global Entertainment website and its divisions — including Records, Studio, Tour, Tech, the Shellac Creator Network, and Shellac Teens. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through our website, how we use it, and the choices you have.

By using our website or submitting information through any application, inquiry, or contact form, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

When you fill out a form, application, inquiry, or contact request, you voluntarily provide information such as your name, email address, phone number, city, market, social media handles, and any details you choose to include in a message.

Providing this information is optional in most cases, but certain fields may be required in order to submit a specific form.

Talent, model, creator, and on-camera applications may collect your full name, pronouns, date of birth, contact details, city and market, social handles (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube), portfolio links, biography, and classification selections.

For model applications, this may also include physical attributes such as height, measurements, shoe size, hair color, and eye color, which are used solely for representation and casting evaluation purposes.

Service inquiries may collect client name, legal/company name, email, phone, artist or writer name, project information, selected services and add-ons, and an optional attachment (logo, brief, references, or screenshots).

This information is used to review and scope the requested service, prepare an estimate or invoice, and coordinate delivery.

Brand and campaign inquiries may collect company name, contact name, email, phone, website or social links, campaign type, services needed, budget, timeline, target audience, markets, deliverables, and campaign goals.

This information is used to evaluate, respond to, and coordinate potential brand partnerships and campaigns.

Career applications may collect your name, email, phone, location, role applied for, experience summary and areas, software and CRM platforms, work-type preferences, availability, portfolio and resume uploads, and consent acknowledgment.

When you contact us, we collect the contact details and message content you provide so that we can respond to your request and keep a record of our communication.

You may upload media such as portfolios, reels, comp cards, headshots, photos, videos, resumes, or similar materials through our forms.

These materials are reviewed for the purpose of evaluating applications, representation, casting, and campaign opportunities. You should only upload content you have the right to share.

Like most websites, we automatically collect certain technical information when you visit, including browser type, device type, operating system, referring pages, pages viewed, and approximate location based on IP address.

This information is used to operate, secure, and improve the website.

We use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, keep the site working, and understand how the website is used. See our Cookie Policy for the categories of cookies we use and how to manage them.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings or our cookie consent banner. Disabling some cookies may affect features of the website.

We may use analytics tools to collect aggregated usage data — such as pages visited and general traffic patterns — to help us improve the site. Analytics is enabled only with your consent where required, and you can withdraw that consent at any time through our cookie preferences or your browser settings.

We use the information you submit to review applications and inquiries, evaluate fit for representation or campaigns, match talent to opportunities, manage bookings and campaigns, prepare estimates and invoices, communicate with you, and provide the services requested.

We do not sell your personal information.

If you join a newsletter or alerts list (such as The Village or Shellac Castings), we use your email and any preferences you share to send you the updates you signed up for. You can unsubscribe at any time using the unsubscribe link in any email, through your account settings, or by contacting us.

We only send marketing emails to people who have consented to receive them, and we honor opt-out requests promptly.

We work with trusted service providers and vendors that help us operate the website, store data, host files, send email, process payments, and run analytics. These providers may process limited data on our behalf and are bound by confidentiality and security obligations.

We may share information when required by law, to protect our rights, or in connection with a legitimate business transfer. We may share relevant applicant details with a brand, production, or casting party only as needed to consider you for a specific opportunity, and only where appropriate.

We retain submitted information for as long as needed to fulfill the purpose it was collected for, including ongoing representation, campaign administration, invoicing, and record-keeping. When it is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it, subject to legal or operational obligations.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

For minors, including through Shellac Teens, we collect parent or guardian name, email, phone, and consent. Guardian involvement and consent are required for minors, and youth opportunities are age-appropriate.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors without required guardian involvement. If you believe a minor's information was collected without consent, please contact us so we can address it.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information, restrict or object to certain processing, and opt out of marketing communications or the sale/share of personal data.

To exercise any of these rights, submit a request through our Privacy Request page or contact us using the details below.

Because we collect form submissions, applications, inquiry details, and analytics data, we provide a clear method for you to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, or to opt out of marketing communications.

Submit a request through our Privacy Request page, or email us at contact@weareshellac.com. We will verify your identity where appropriate and respond within a reasonable timeframe.

Our website may link to third-party websites or services that we do not control. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Please review their policies before providing any information.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updated versions will be posted on this page with a revised date. Continued use of the website after changes indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
