Data We Collect

We may collect identification and contact details, inquiry content, booking and planning information, product and shot-list details, payment-related records, proof-gallery selections, delivery preferences, and technical data such as device, browser, and usage information. Where needed for studio or on-location work, we may also process information provided by clients about products, reference materials, and session instructions.

The data collected depends on the inquiry, booking, and delivery steps used.

Sources of Data

We receive personal data from contact forms, email, phone calls, planning calls, booking communications, and files or instructions submitted during the project workflow. We also collect limited technical data automatically when the website is used, and we may receive payment confirmation or delivery-related information from service providers involved in the transaction or file delivery process.

Most data comes directly from clients or from their use of the website and service process.

Types of Cookies

We may use essential cookies to support core site functions, preference cookies to remember settings, and analytics cookies to understand how the site is used. If any embedded service or delivery tool is used, it may place its own cookies subject to its settings and policies. Non-essential cookies are used only where permitted.

Cookie use is limited to standard operational and analytical purposes.

Cookie Controls

You can manage or block cookies through your browser settings. If the website offers a cookie banner or preference tool, you may use it to accept or reject non-essential cookies. Disabling some cookies may affect site functionality, form handling, or the ability to remember your preferences.

Cookie choices can be adjusted through browser settings and, where available, site controls.

User Rights

Your Rights

Depending on your location and the applicable law, you may have rights to access your data, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, object to certain processing, or request restriction of processing. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent for future processing.

Available rights depend on the legal basis and the nature of the processing.

Requests

How to Make a Request

To exercise a privacy right, provide enough information to identify the relevant data and the request you want us to handle. We may ask for additional details to verify identity or to understand the scope of the request. If a request cannot be fully satisfied, we will explain the reason where required by law.

Requests are reviewed before action is taken to confirm identity and scope.

Data Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as needed for the relevant inquiry, booking, project administration, accounting, legal compliance, or dispute handling. When data is no longer needed, it is deleted, anonymized, or archived in a limited form where retention is required by law or justified by a legitimate business need.

Retention is based on the purpose of collection, legal duties, and operational need.

Policy Updates

If we make material changes, we will update the policy text on the website and may provide additional notice where appropriate. The date of the latest revision should be checked before relying on the policy.

We review this policy when our processing practices or legal duties change.

Purposes of Processing

We use personal data to respond to inquiries, assess project scope, prepare quotes and delivery plans, coordinate product intake and session planning, manage bookings, produce and deliver edited images, handle payments, maintain records, operate the website, improve service quality, and meet legal and accounting obligations.

Processing is limited to the operational needs of the studio and website.

Service Providers

We may share personal data with trusted service providers that support website hosting, communications, file delivery, payment processing, storage, or technical maintenance. These parties act on our instructions where required and are expected to use the data only for the services they provide.

Service providers receive only the data needed to perform their assigned function.

Legal Disclosures

We may disclose personal data when necessary to comply with applicable law, court orders, lawful requests from public authorities, or obligations relating to accounting, tax, fraud prevention, or the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

Disclosure may be required to meet legal, tax, or regulatory obligations.
