Legal Information

This page sets out the legal information that presswirvo is required to publish in connection with the operation of this website and with the professional training courses offered through it. It is written for visitors, prospective learners, enrolled learners and the organisations that book places on our courses. Last updated: 20 October 2026. Where this page refers to another policy of this website, that policy forms part of the same set of documents and should be read together with this page.

Identity of the Website Operator and Its Role

The website is owned and operated by presswirvo, which is also the provider of the training courses described on it. Throughout this page, the words “we”, “us” and “our” refer to presswirvo. In practice the operator performs three distinct legal roles at the same time. First, it is the operator and publisher of this website, which makes it responsible for the accuracy of the information published here and for the way the site is run. Second, it is the provider of the training services sold through the site, which means it is the party with which a learner enters into a contract when a course is booked. Third, it is the data controller for the personal data that visitors submit through the contact form, through the booking process, or by email.

Our specialist subject is live production. The courses offered through this website deal with live production decks and control rooms, including multi-camera switching, live broadcasting techniques, real-time video operation, and the professional management of television and streaming productions. Course content is delivered as training and education. It is not consultancy, engineering sign-off, health and safety certification, or broadcasting regulatory clearance, and nothing on this website should be read as a promise of a particular outcome, qualification or engagement in the media industry.

We do not act as an agent for any broadcaster, streaming platform, equipment manufacturer, venue or production company, and no endorsement by a third party should be inferred from any example, illustration or description used on this site. Where a course is delivered jointly with a partner organisation, the identity of the contracting party is made clear before a booking is confirmed.

Legal Form, Registration Details, Tax Identifiers and Responsible Representatives

presswirvo is a private limited company incorporated in England and Wales and registered with Companies House, the registrar of companies for the United Kingdom. The non-contact legal identifiers that identify the company in official records are set out below. These identifiers do not allow you to reach us directly; the contact route is described further down this page.

Legal form: private limited company incorporated in England and Wales
Company Registration Number: 02867466
VAT Registration Number: GB 645 085 923
Registrar: Companies House, United Kingdom
Responsible representatives: the directors of the company, whose particulars are filed with Companies House and are available for public inspection through the registrar

The Company Registration Number identifies the company in the register kept by Companies House. The VAT Registration Number identifies the company for the purposes of value added tax and appears on invoices issued for course bookings where VAT is chargeable. Prices quoted through the site are inclusive of applicable VAT unless the contrary is stated at the point of booking.

Training and educational services of this kind do not require a specific operating licence in the United Kingdom beyond the ordinary registrations described above. The operator does not hold any licence that would authorise it to act on behalf of a broadcaster, a regulator or a copyright collecting society. If the legal form, the registration particulars or the directors of the company change, this page is updated so that the published information continues to match the public register.

The responsible representatives of the company are its directors. They are the natural persons legally responsible for the acts and omissions of the company, including the content published on this website and the way personal data is handled. Correspondence intended for the directors should be sent through the contact route described below, or left through the contact form on the Contacts page so that it can be logged and passed on.

Registered Office and Available Contact Details

The registered office of presswirvo is at Beaconsfield Studios, Station Road, Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, HP9 1LG, United Kingdom. The registered office is the address at which formal documents and legal notices may be served on the company, and it appears on the public register of companies. It is also the address published for written correspondence in connection with this website and the courses offered through it.

Where a contact detail is published on this website, it is one of the following:

Email: info@nfts.co.uk
Telephone: 01494 671234
Postal and registered office address: Beaconsfield Studios, Station Road, Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, HP9 1LG, United Kingdom

These are the only official contact channels for the operator of this website. Messages sent to any other address, telephone number, social media account or messaging service are not treated as formal notice and may not reach the person responsible for dealing with your enquiry. Formal notice under our Terms and Conditions, a complaint, a data protection request, or a statement that a contract is being cancelled should be directed through one of the channels listed above so that the date and the content of the communication can be recorded.

The Contacts page of this website also provides a contact form. That form asks you for your own name, your own email address and the details of your enquiry. Those details are used to answer you and to keep a record of the correspondence. Personal contact details of individual members of staff are not published on this site, and the site does not display live chat or messaging widgets.

Our team deals with enquiries during normal office hours, and enquiries received outside those hours are handled on the next working day. If your message relates to an existing booking, please include the booking reference so that it can be matched to your record quickly.

Purpose, Scope and Intended Audience of This Website

This website is a commercial website. Its purpose is to describe the training courses offered by presswirvo, to allow visitors to enquire about and enrol in those courses, to provide practical information about course content, format and requirements, and to publish the legal and policy information that applies to the relationship between the operator and its learners.

The subject matter of the site is live production and control room practice, covering multi-camera switching, live broadcasting techniques, real-time video operation, and the professional management of television and streaming productions. Content is prepared for an audience with an interest in how live productions are cut, mixed, monitored and delivered, and it assumes a general curiosity about broadcasting rather than any prior technical qualification.

The intended audience includes media professionals, aspiring broadcasters, production technicians, students of film and television studies, corporate communications teams, and organisations that run live events or create streamed content. The site is written in English and is aimed at users in the United Kingdom and, where our courses can be delivered, at international learners as well.

This website is not directed at children. Our courses are designed for adults and for learners of at least sixteen years of age, and personal data is not knowingly collected from children below that age through this site. Where a course is booked for a younger learner, a parent or guardian must make the booking and remains responsible for the learner.

Access to the Website and Acceptable Use

You may read, browse and use this website for lawful purposes and for the purpose of considering or booking our courses. Access is provided on an as-available basis. We may change, suspend or withdraw any part of the site, including course descriptions and the booking function, without notice, although information that we are legally required to publish will not be removed while that requirement lasts.

When using the site, the following conduct is not permitted:

breaking any law, or encouraging anyone else to break the law;
attempting to gain unauthorised access to the site, its servers or any connected system, or interfering with its normal operation;
using automated tools to scrape, harvest, index or copy content, course materials or contact details from the site;
introducing viruses, malicious code or any other harmful material;
submitting false, misleading or impersonating information through the contact form or the booking process;
using our contact channels to send unsolicited advertising, chain letters or bulk communications;
copying, reselling, sublicensing or republishing course materials, recordings or written content without written permission;
using the site in a way that damages the reputation of the operator, its trainers, its partners or its learners.

If these rules are breached, access may be restricted or withdrawn, a booking made through a fraudulent or abusive process may be cancelled, and any other step that is reasonable and lawful to protect the site, our learners and our business may be taken. Where a breach also involves a criminal offence, it may be reported to the relevant authorities.

You are responsible for the equipment, software and internet connection you use to reach the site, and for keeping your own devices secure. Where course materials are delivered through a platform that requires an account, you are responsible for keeping your login details confidential and for telling us promptly if you believe they have been used by someone else.

Ownership and Permitted Use of Website Content, Trademarks and Other Intellectual Property

All content on this website, including text, course outlines, teaching materials, diagrams, slide decks, video material, audio material, layout, graphics and the underlying code, is owned by presswirvo or is used under a valid licence. That content is protected by copyright, database rights, design rights and, where applicable, trade mark law in the United Kingdom and elsewhere.

The name presswirvo and any associated logo, wordmark or course name used on this site are trade marks or trading names of the operator. Nothing on this site grants you a licence to use them, and they must not be used in a way that suggests a connection with us that does not exist.

Subject to the paragraph above, you may read, print and download pages from this website for your own private, non-commercial use, and enrolled learners may use the course materials supplied to them for their own study. You may not otherwise reproduce, distribute, communicate to the public, adapt, translate, frame, mirror or create derivative works from any part of this site or its content, and you may not remove or obscure any copyright notice, trade mark or attribution.

Quoting a short extract of published text for the purpose of comment, criticism, review or teaching may be permitted under the exceptions available in law, provided the source is acknowledged and the use is fair. Requests for any other use, including commercial reproduction, teaching use by a third party, or publication of our training material, must be made through the contact route set out on this page.

Accuracy, Availability and Proportionate Limitations of Liability

Care is taken to keep the information on this site accurate and up to date, and course descriptions are written to give a fair picture of what a course covers. Even so, the site is provided for general information. Training practice, technical standards and equipment change quickly, and small details of a course, such as a running order or a piece of demonstration equipment, may change without notice. Information on this site is not technical, legal, financial or safety advice, and it should not be relied on as a substitute for professional judgement in a live production environment.

We aim to keep the site available, but uninterrupted and error-free access cannot be promised. Maintenance, updates, hosting problems or events outside our control may interrupt the service. We are not responsible for failures caused by your equipment, your network, your internet service provider, or by third-party platforms that we do not control.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, liability is excluded for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, loss of business, loss of opportunity and loss of data arising from use of this site or from reliance on its content. Where liability cannot lawfully be excluded, our liability is limited to the amount paid for the course or service to which the claim relates or, where no payment was made, to a reasonable sum.

Nothing on this page excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, for breach of the terms implied by the Consumer Rights Act 2015 that cannot be excluded, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be limited. If you are a consumer, you keep all of the statutory rights that the law gives you, and nothing in this legal information page or in the Terms and Conditions takes those rights away.

External Links and Third-Party Content

This site may link to, embed or refer to material provided by other organisations, such as hosting platforms, industry bodies, equipment manufacturers or venues. Those links are provided for convenience and to help learners understand the production environment. They are not an endorsement, and the content, availability, security and privacy practices of third-party services are not under our control.

When you follow a link to another website or platform, or when you use a third-party tool mentioned here, that third party's own terms and privacy notices apply to your use of it. We are not responsible for the accuracy of third-party content, for loss caused by it, or for the way a third party handles your personal data. You should read the relevant policies before providing personal data to a third-party service.

If you believe that material on this site infringes your rights, or that a link we publish points to unlawful or harmful content, please tell us through the contact route below. Include enough detail for the material to be identified, explain the nature of your concern, and confirm that you are the owner of the right concerned or are authorised to act for the owner. The matter will be reviewed and, where appropriate, the material or the link will be removed or amended.

Course Bookings, Pricing, Cancellation and Consumer Contract Formalities

Bookings are made through the process described on this website or by enquiry with our team. Before a booking is confirmed, the information required by the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 is provided, including a description of the course, the total price payable, the arrangements for payment and the cancellation rights that apply. Course prices are stated inclusive of applicable VAT unless the opposite is stated.

Where a booking is made at a distance, a statutory cooling-off period applies and you may cancel within that period without giving a reason. The position is different where a course has already been fully delivered, where a course date was booked with your agreement to start within the cancellation period, or where a bespoke or customised course was prepared at your request. Details of the cancellation windows, the notice required, the treatment of deposits, and the circumstances in which a refund or a transfer is available are set out in the Payment and Refund Policy, which forms part of the contract between us.

Where a course is postponed or cancelled by us, a replacement date or a refund will be offered in accordance with the Payment and Refund Policy. Where a learner cannot attend, the options for transferring a place will be explained, subject to availability and to any notice period stated in that policy.

Related Policies: Privacy, Cookies, Terms and Refunds

This legal information page does not stand alone. The following plain-text references describe the other policy documents that apply to this website, and they should be read together with this page:

Privacy Policy — explains what personal data is collected through the site and the booking process, why it is collected, who it may be shared with, how long it is kept, and the rights available under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, including the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection, and the right to withdraw consent.
Cookie Policy — explains the cookies and similar technologies used on this site, the purposes for which they are used, and how consent is managed by the site-wide cookie banner in line with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR). It also explains how you can refuse or remove cookies through your browser settings.
Terms and Conditions — set out the contract between you and us for the use of this website and for course bookings, including booking procedures, learner obligations, rules of conduct during training, and the limits of our responsibility.
Payment and Refund Policy — sets out how payments are taken, how invoices are issued, when refunds are available, how cancellations and transfers are handled, and the timescales for processing a refund.

Where there is a conflict between this legal information page and one of the documents above, the more specific document prevails in relation to the subject it covers, and the Terms and Conditions prevail in relation to the contract for a course booking.

Data Protection and Electronic Communications

presswirvo processes personal data lawfully, fairly and transparently. Only what is needed is collected: your name and contact details so that an enquiry can be answered or a booking administered, and, where you have agreed, your contact details so that you can be told about future courses. Personal data is not sold, and it is not used for automated decision-making that produces legal effects for you.

Under the UK GDPR you have the right to be informed, to access your data, to have inaccurate data corrected, to ask for data to be erased, to restrict or object to processing, and to receive certain data in a portable format. Consent may be withdrawn at any time where processing is based on consent, without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal. Requests can be made through the contact route on this page, and we normally respond within one month.

Consent for non-essential cookies is collected through the site-wide cookie banner and can be changed at any time. If you are unhappy with how your data has been handled, you can complain to us first, and you also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, the United Kingdom's data protection regulator.

Applicable Law, Competent Courts and Consumer Dispute Rights

This website, its content and the relationship between you and presswirvo are governed by the law of England and Wales. Subject to the paragraph on consumer rights below, the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or in connection with this site or a course booking.

If you are a consumer resident elsewhere in the United Kingdom, you may also bring proceedings in the courts of the part of the United Kingdom in which you live. Consumers in the United Kingdom keep the rights given by the Consumer Rights Act 2015, including the right to a remedy where a service is not performed with reasonable care and skill, and the protection given by the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 against misleading or aggressive commercial practices.

Before starting court proceedings, we ask you to raise the matter with us through the contact route below so that we have a chance to resolve it. Many concerns are resolved quickly by a short exchange of messages. If a complaint cannot be settled directly, alternative dispute resolution, such as mediation through an approved scheme, may be available. Participation in alternative dispute resolution is voluntary and does not remove your right to go to court.
