Privacy Notice

7 min read Updated:

The Interlude Café
Effective Date: 11 August 2026

This Privacy Notice explains how Midlennial Ventures Limited collects and uses personal data when you visit a website, landing page or form operated for The Interlude Café (“IC”), contact us, complete an assessment, subscribe to IC communications or otherwise interact with the IC project and its related communications. IC is a public-facing brand/project operated by Midlennial Ventures Limited. This Notice is written for the services and systems currently in operation. If we introduce a materially different product or data use, we will update this Notice and provide any additional information or consent request required by law.

1. Who Are We?

Midlennial Ventures Limited (“Midlennial Ventures”, “we”, “us” or “our”) operates The Interlude Café (“The IC”) and determines the purposes and means for processing the personal data covered by this Notice. IC is a brand/project rather than a separate data controller. Where a future activity is operated by a different legal entity or involves a joint controller, the relevant privacy information will identify that arrangement.

Midlennial Ventures Limited is a company registered in England and Wales under company number 15913892. Our registered office is:

71–75 Shelton Street
Covent Garden
London
WC2H 9JQ
United Kingdom

We are registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office under registration number ZB821369. The registration details should be checked against the ICO public register before this Notice is published or reissued.

For privacy questions or requests relating to The IC or the assessment, contact hello@midlennial.com or write to us at the address above.

2. Personal Data We May Collect

The data we collect depends on how you interact with The IC. We do not require you to create a user account to browse the website, and The IC does not currently operate a separate app or member-account platform.

Information you provide

  • Identity and contact details, such as your name, email address, telephone number and organisation details, when you contact us or complete a form.
  • Correspondence and enquiry information, including the contents of messages, feedback, requests and any information you choose to include.
  • Subscription and communication preferences, including whether you have subscribed to a newsletter or other update.
  • Information provided when you register interest in a proposed event, research activity, product or service, where such a facility is active.
  • Information provided when you respond to a survey, interview request or other research invitation.

Information collected through use of the website and communications

  • Technical information, such as IP address, browser and device type, operating system, approximate location derived from IP address, and security or diagnostic information.
  • Usage information, such as pages viewed, links followed, referral source and interactions with website content, where the relevant analytics or measurement tools are enabled.
  • Email interaction information, such as delivery, opens and link clicks, where the email service and your settings permit that information to be recorded.

Information from other sources

We may receive limited information from publicly available sources, professional contacts, or platforms on which you interact with our content. We will use that information only where lawful and relevant to the relationship or communication concerned.

3. WML, Snapshot And Assessment Information

The IC may use an assessment or structured research activity referred to as WML, Snapshot or a related name. The current assessment flow uses Tally for data collection and may use Zapier and MailerLite to support the related workflow. These systems are used only for the relevant assessment activity; their use does not mean that every planned WML/Snapshot feature is live.

When you complete an active assessment, we will explain before collection what information is requested, why it is needed, how responses will be used, whether any special-category data is involved, whether interpretation or profiling is undertaken, whether information is shared with a partner, how re-contact operates, and what choices you have. A separate assessment notice, consent wording or product-specific terms may also apply. The assessment is not intended to provide medical, legal, financial or other regulated professional advice.

Please do not submit health information, information about another person, or other sensitive personal information through a general contact form unless we specifically ask for it and provide an appropriate privacy explanation.

4. How We Use Personal Data And Our Lawful Bases

We use personal data only for appropriate and lawful purposes. Depending on the circumstances, our lawful basis may be consent, steps before entering into a contract, performance of a contract, legitimate interests, or compliance with a legal obligation.

  • Responding to enquiries, requests and correspondence — legitimate interests or steps before entering into a contract.
  • Sending a newsletter or other marketing communication you have requested or consented to receive — consent, where required by law.
  • Managing business, supplier, partner or professional relationships — legitimate interests, contract or legal obligation, as applicable.
  • Providing a product or service that you have requested or purchased — steps before entering into a contract or performance of a contract.
  • Operating, securing, maintaining and improving the website and communications — legitimate interests, subject to applicable cookie and electronic-marketing rules.
  • Understanding engagement with our publications and communications — legitimate interests or consent, depending on the tool and activity involved.
  • Maintaining records, handling disputes, preventing misuse and complying with legal or regulatory requirements — legitimate interests or legal obligation.

Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing that took place before withdrawal. You can unsubscribe from marketing communications using the link provided in the communication or by contacting us.

5. Marketing Communications

The IC’s current onboarding sequence and newsletter/email communications are operated through Ghost. MailerLite is used only where required for the assessment flow, with Zapier supporting relevant workflow automation. We may use Kit or another provider in future for some communications. If the provider or processing arrangements change materially, we will update this Notice and the relevant processor information where required.

You can unsubscribe at any time. We may retain a minimal suppression record so that we can respect your request not to receive further marketing.

6. Cookies, Analytics and Embedded Content

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies. The cookies and scripts actually enabled on the website, their purposes and the choices available to you are described in our Cookie Policy. The Cookie Policy should be checked against the live website before publication.

The site may contain links or embedded material provided by third parties, such as video, social-media or other content. If you interact with that material, the third party may collect information under its own privacy notice and cookie settings. We do not control those third-party practices.

7. Who We Share Personal Data With

We do not sell your personal data. We may disclose it where reasonably necessary and lawful to the following categories of recipient:

  • service providers acting on our instructions, such as website hosting, form, email, automation, security, storage and technical-support providers;
  • professional advisers, insurers and other suppliers where necessary to operate the company, protect our rights or obtain advice;
  • a purchaser, investor or successor in connection with a proposed or completed business transaction, subject to appropriate confidentiality and legal safeguards; and
  • courts, regulators, public authorities or law-enforcement bodies where disclosure is required or permitted by law.

The IC’s current operating stack may include Ghost for website publishing, onboarding and newsletter/email communications; Tally for assessment forms; Zapier for workflow automation; and MailerLite only for parts of the assessment flow. Kit may be used in future for some communications. The actual providers used for a particular activity may change. Before publication, the live configuration, data flows and processor arrangements should be checked and the relevant supplier information updated if necessary.

We do not currently promise or assume that data will be shared with insurance, financial-services or other commercial partners. If a future product involves partner sharing, we will explain that clearly and obtain any consent required.

8. International Transfers and Security

Some suppliers may process or store personal data outside the United Kingdom. Where this occurs, we will use a lawful transfer mechanism and appropriate safeguards where required, such as an adequacy regulation, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, the UK Addendum to EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or another lawful mechanism.

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or disclosure. No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

9. How Long We Keep Personal Data

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including legal, accounting, tax, reporting, dispute-resolution and business-record requirements. Retention depends on the type of information and the relationship involved.

  • Enquiry and correspondence records are normally kept for as long as needed to handle the matter and for a reasonable period afterwards.
  • Newsletter data is kept while you remain subscribed, with a limited suppression record retained after unsubscribe where needed to prevent unwanted re-subscription.
  • Contractual, financial and legal records may be kept for longer where required by law or reasonably necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

10. Your Data-Protection Rights

Subject to legal conditions and exemptions, you may have the right to:

  • be informed about how your personal data is used;
  • request access to your personal data;
  • ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data;
  • ask us to erase personal data;
  • ask us to restrict processing;
  • receive certain data in a portable format;
  • object to processing based on legitimate interests, including direct marketing; and
  • withdraw consent where consent is the lawful basis.

We do not currently make solely automated decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects about visitors or subscribers. Assessment responses may be used to provide structured interpretation or segmentation, but this is not intended to produce a legal or similarly significant automated decision. If a future WML/Snapshot or other product uses profiling or automated interpretation in a way that engages additional rights, we will provide the information required by law and explain how to exercise those rights.

To exercise a right, contact hello@midlennial.com. We may need to verify your identity. We normally respond within one month, subject to lawful extensions for complex or multiple requests.

11. Children

Our website and communications are intended for adults and are not directed at children. Please do not submit a child’s personal data unless you are legally entitled to do so and we have specifically requested it.

Our website may link to websites or services operated by other organisations. Their privacy practices are separate from ours, and you should read their privacy notices before providing them with personal data.
