Legal Information

Last updated: 3 November 2026.

Who we are and why this page exists

This website is operated by Shoot Blue Limited, a company registered in England and Wales. In this legal information notice, "we", "us", and "our" refer to that company, and "the site" refers to wordilyx, our professional hub for live television production. The site explores studio equipment integration, dynamic camera techniques, acoustic optimisation, lighting setups, and the reliable production processes that support news programmes, interviews, and live shows.

This page explains who publishes the site, how the business is registered, where to find our contact details, what you may and may not do with the material published here, and how the legal relationship between you and us is governed. It is written to be read by humans, not only by lawyers, so we explain the practical consequences of each point in plain language. It sits alongside, and does not replace, our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Terms and Conditions, and Payment and Refund Policy. Where those documents deal with a topic in more depth, this page says so and points you to them in plain text.

Our role is that of website operator and publisher. We are also a commercial equipment rental business serving film, television, and media production, and some pages of the site describe equipment and services that we make available on commercial terms. For the purposes of UK data protection law, we are the data controller responsible for personal data collected through the site, as described in our Privacy Policy. A separate role applies to any contract you enter into with us for the hire of equipment or the supply of related services; in that case we act as the supplier party under our Terms and Conditions.

Company identity, legal form, and statutory registration details

Under the Companies (Trading Disclosures) Regulations 2008 and the Electronic Commerce (EC Directive) Regulations 2002, a UK company that maintains a commercial website must disclose certain business information. We publish the following details on the site, and they also appear in the site footer on every page:

• Company name: Shoot Blue Limited — the full registered corporate name, not only the trading name.
• Company registration number: 13033970 — issued by Companies House.
• Place of registration: Registered in England and Wales.
• Registered office address: Unit 10, Roslin Square, Roslin Road, London W3 8DH, United Kingdom.
• VAT registration number: 494089156 — our tax identifier for VAT purposes.
• Email: enquiries@salford.ac.uk
• Telephone: +44 (0)161 295 0100

"Shoot Blue" is the trading name used alongside the registered name. The company is a limited liability company incorporated under the Companies Act 2006, governed by the law of England and Wales. The company registration number identifies the legal entity in the Companies House register, and the VAT number identifies the business for value added tax purposes; both are national identifiers rather than contact channels. "Registered office" means the official address recorded in the register and used for service of legal documents and official correspondence.

No additional regulatory licence is required for the activities described on this site. If the scope of our regulated activities changes in the future, we will publish the relevant authorisation or membership details here. Our policies relating to sustainability, modern slavery, and safe working practices are available on request through the contact channels listed below.

Registered office, trading location, and sustainable contact channels

Our registered office is at Unit 10, Roslin Square, Roslin Road, London W3 8DH. This is the address to use for formal legal notices, service of documents, and official correspondence about the company itself. At the same location we operate our equipment rental and production support base, where the camera and lighting equipment described on the site is prepared, maintained, and dispatched.

Because live production schedules can change quickly, we prefer digital contact first:

• Email: enquiries@salford.ac.uk — the best route for hire enquiries, legal notices, data protection requests, and general questions. Write from an address you monitor, and include as much detail as you can so we can route your message correctly.
• Telephone: +44 (0)161 295 0100 — helpful for time-critical production enquiries, availability questions, and urgent matters. If we cannot answer immediately, please leave a short message, or send an email as well.
• Postal address: MediaCity Campus, University of Salford, Broadway, Salford M50 2AB, United Kingdom — for formal notices and documents that must be served in writing.
• Contact form: the Contact Us page of the site carries a form for enquiries that are not urgent. Messages sent through the form reach the same team as email.

The same details are repeated in the site footer and on our contact page so that they are easy to find on every page you visit. Please use the channel that best matches your need: production enquiries, data protection requests, and legal notices are all handled by the relevant team, and using the correct route helps us respond faster.

Purpose, scope, and intended audience of the site

The site is a professional hub for live television production. It provides educational and informational material on studio equipment integration, dynamic camera techniques, acoustic optimisation, lighting setups, and dependable production processes for news programmes, interviews, and live shows. It is aimed at producers, directors, technical operators, engineers, technicians, students, and independent creators who are learning about or working in live production, in the United Kingdom and abroad.

The content is general in nature. It is not a quotation, a binding offer, or professional advice for a specific project. Production decisions depend on many factors that vary from studio to studio, so always assess your own circumstances before acting on anything you read here. Access to the site is free of charge and does not require registration, although we may offer optional features in the future. Where the site links to equipment hire or service pages, separate commercial terms apply to those transactions.

Access to the site and acceptable use

You may use the site for lawful purposes only. In particular, you must not:

• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site, its servers, or any connected system, or interfere with its normal operation;
• probe, scan, or test the security of the site, or circumvent any security or access-control measure;
• introduce viruses, malware, or any other harmful material, or use the site in a way that could damage, disable, or impair it;
• use automated tools to harvest content, scrape pages, or copy the site at scale without our prior written consent;
• use the site in breach of any applicable law or regulation, or in a way that infringes the rights of others;
• copy, reproduce, republish, or commercially exploit material from the site except as permitted in this notice or in our Terms and Conditions.

We may suspend, withdraw, or restrict access to the site, in whole or in part, for operational, legal, or security reasons, without notice. We try to keep disruption to a minimum, but we cannot promise that access will always be uninterrupted.

Intellectual property: our content, your licence, and trademarks

All intellectual property rights in the site and its content — including text, graphics, photography, illustrations, diagrams, logos, and the design and arrangement of pages — belong to us or our licensors. The site and its content are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws in the United Kingdom and elsewhere.

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to view, download, and print pages for your own personal or internal business use. Any permitted copy must keep all copyright and proprietary notices intact. You may not distribute, republish, sell, license, or commercially exploit any content from the site without our express written permission, and you may not modify or create derivative works from it for commercial use.

The Shoot Blue name and logo are our trade marks. You may not use them without permission, except where the law allows fair or nominative reference to identify us accurately, for example in factual statements about a transaction you have with us.

Accuracy and availability of information: proportionate limitations of liability

We prepare the content of this site with care, but we cannot guarantee that every detail is accurate, complete, and up to date at all times. The material is provided "as is" and "as available", for general information and educational purposes only. We may update, change, or remove content at any time without notice, and we do not warrant that the site will be free of errors, interruptions, or harmful components.

Nothing in this notice excludes or limits our liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that the law does not allow to be excluded. Subject to that:

• we exclude all implied conditions, warranties, and other terms that could be excluded by law;
• we are not liable for loss of profit, loss of business, loss of opportunity, or indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of, or inability to use, the site or any content on it;
• where we provide any paid service described on the site, liability is limited as set out in our Terms and Conditions for that service.

Some content concerns technical practice and equipment, so always verify details against manufacturer documentation and your own risk assessments before applying anything in a live or on-set environment.

External links and third-party content

The site may link to third-party websites, such as equipment manufacturers, industry bodies, and other resources. Those websites are outside our control. We do not endorse, verify, or take responsibility for their content, products, services, accuracy, or security. When you follow a link to a third-party website, you leave our site and the terms and privacy practices of that website apply. You should read them before using the site.

We accept no liability for any loss or damage arising from your use of a linked website or reliance on third-party content. If you believe that a link or any third-party material we reference is inaccurate, unlawful, or infringes your rights, please tell us using the contact details on this page so we can review it.

Privacy, personal data, and your rights under UK GDPR

We collect and use personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation, the Data Protection Act 2018, and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR). Any personal data you submit through our contact form or by email is handled in line with our Privacy Policy, which explains what we collect, why we collect it, how long we retain it, how it is stored and protected, who it may be shared with, and your rights.

Your rights include the right of access to the personal data we hold about you, the right to rectification or erasure of inaccurate or unnecessary data, the right to restriction of processing, the right to data portability where applicable, and the right to object to processing. Where our processing relies on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection. The Privacy Policy gives the practical steps for making a request and how to contact us about it.

Cookies, analytics, and PECR consent

The site uses cookies and similar technologies. Essential cookies are necessary for the site to work and for security; they are used on the basis of our legitimate interests and, where relevant, solely to provide the service you requested. Non-essential cookies, such as analytics tools, are used only with your consent. The site-wide cookie banner lets you accept or reject non-essential cookies and change your choice later, and we do not treat continued browsing as consent unless you have actively agreed.

If you reject non-essential cookies, we do not use them to track your visit. The Cookie Policy explains the categories of cookies we use, what each is for, how long they last, and how to manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it.

Website terms and conditions

Use of the site is also governed by our Terms and Conditions, which form a binding agreement between you and us. They explain the rules for using the site, the basis on which content is provided, permitted uses of our material, and what happens if these rules are breached. By continuing to use the site after any update to the Terms and Conditions, you accept the updated terms. If you do not agree with them, please stop using the site and close your browser.

Where a conflict exists between this legal information notice and the Terms and Conditions on matters of contract, the Terms and Conditions prevail.

Commercial terms, payment, and refunds

No contract is formed through general browsing of the site. A contract for the hire of equipment or the supply of related services comes into effect only when we accept your order or provide written confirmation, and it is subject to our Terms and Conditions for Hire and, where applicable, our Payment and Refund Policy.

The Payment and Refund Policy explains how prices are calculated and displayed (inclusive of VAT where applicable), how and when payment must be made, any deposits or cancellation charges, and when refunds are available. Nothing in that policy affects your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 or the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, or any other consumer protection law that applies to your transaction. If you are a consumer in the United Kingdom, you have the right to receive goods and services that are as described, of satisfactory quality, and fit for purpose, and remedies are available where they are not.

Governing law, competent courts, and consumer dispute rights

This legal information notice and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction, subject to the paragraph below. If you are a consumer and live elsewhere in the United Kingdom, you may bring proceedings in your local courts where the law gives you that right; nothing here removes any mandatory local consumer protection you benefit from.

If a dispute arises, please contact us first through the channels on this page so we can try to resolve it informally. Consumers may also use alternative dispute resolution or seek advice from the Citizens Advice service or a similar body. Where the law provides a right to cancel or an additional remedy, this notice does not limit it.

Contact route, changes to this notice, and last updated date

If you have questions about this page, a legal notice to serve, a data protection request, or a complaint, please contact us by email at enquiries@salford.ac.uk or by telephone on +44 (0)161 295 0100, or write to us at MediaCity Campus, University of Salford, Broadway, Salford M50 2AB, United Kingdom. We monitor these channels and will respond as promptly as we can.

We may update this notice from time to time to reflect changes in the law, our practices, or the services we offer. The version published on the site at the time of your visit is the current version. If a change is material, we will make it clear on the site. This notice was last updated on 3 November 2026, and it applies to all visits to the site on or after that date.
