Identity of the Website Operator and Its Role
The website is operated by spotlixray, a commercial entity providing educational resources, courses, and guides focused on spotlight techniques, visual production, lighting direction, camera framing, stage composition, and smooth workflows for entertainment coverage. spotlixray acts as the primary service provider, content creator, and platform host responsible for delivering high-quality instructional materials to professionals and enthusiasts in the entertainment industry. This role encompasses curating and maintaining all site content, managing user access to courses and guides, and ensuring compliance with applicable UK regulations governing online commercial activities. Users interact with the operator through the site's contact form on the dedicated Contacts page, where visitor details may be submitted for inquiries, while the operator's own contact details follow strict policy guidelines using designated placeholders only.
Legal Form, Registration Details, Tax Identifiers, Licences, and Responsible Representatives Required in the Target Country
spotlixray operates as a private limited company registered under the laws of the United Kingdom. Key non-contact legal identifiers include the Company Registration Number 03832499, confirming incorporation with Companies House. The company is registered in England and Wales. Additional tax identifier is the VAT Registration Number GB741697996, displayed in accordance with Electronic Commerce (EC Directive) Regulations 2002 requirements for VAT-registered service providers. These details ensure transparency and allow verification via official public registers. No specific licences beyond standard company registration are required for this type of educational and production guide service, though all activities comply with consumer protection, data protection, and e-commerce laws. Responsible representatives are the directors appointed under the Companies Act 2006, whose details are maintained on the Companies House register but not published here beyond legal necessities to protect privacy. Failure to display these identifiers could result in regulatory penalties, including fines up to level 3 on the standard scale. The operator maintains these records to facilitate public scrutiny and build trust with users seeking professional development in entertainment production fields.
Registered Office and Available Contact Details
The registered office address is maintained as required by the Company, Limited Liability Partnership and Business (Names and Trading Disclosures) Regulations 2015 and must be accessible to users and authorities. In line with the highest-priority contact policy, all address-related contact information uses the exact placeholder Techspace, 132-140 Goswell Road, London EC1V 7DY, United Kingdom. Email contact is enabled exclusively via the placeholder [email protected]. Phone numbers and related elements are disabled entirely and omitted. The Contacts page provides a contact form for visitors to submit their own details, but no site operator phone or additional hardcoded contact data appears anywhere. This structure ensures compliance while directing users to appropriate channels without violating policy overrides. The registered office serves as the official service address for legal documents and regulatory correspondence.
