Newsletters

Banana Creative Studios sends periodic (every 2-3 months) informative newsletters to friends, clients and partners. We use the MailChimp service to manage and send the newsletters and store the subscriber list.

To subscribe to the subscriber list, you can use the field at the bottom of every page of our website. Simply enter your email and check the box that will give us consent to send you newsletters.

Unsubscribing from the subscriber list is just as easy – click on the “unsubscribe” link at the end of each newsletter we send you and confirm your deletion by clicking on the relevant button that will appear.

For those who were already subscribed to the subscriber list before May 25, 2018, an email has been sent asking for confirmation of consent to continue sending newsletters. Those who did not confirm their registration were deleted from the subscriber list. If you belong to this category and want to receive the newsletter, you can simply subscribe again.

For newsletters, the only personal data we store is your email address.

Banana Creative Studios is responsible for processing the emails of the newsletter list.
