Your Rights
Depending on your location and the circumstances, you may have the right to request access to your personal data, correction of inaccurate information, deletion in appropriate cases, restriction of certain processing, or an explanation of how a request has been handled. Some requests may be limited where we must keep data for legal, contractual, or operational reasons.
How to Make a Request
To make a privacy request, provide enough detail for us to identify the data involved and confirm your identity where needed. We may ask for additional information before acting on a request, especially where the request concerns booking records, delivery files, or payment-related documentation. If a request cannot be fully granted, we will explain the reason in general terms.
Data Retention
We retain personal data for the period needed to manage inquiries, complete bookings, deliver edited files, maintain business records, and meet legal or accounting obligations. When data is no longer required, we delete it or anonymize it where practical, subject to any retention needed for dispute handling, compliance, or security review.
Changes to This Policy
If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will update the posted version and may provide additional notice where appropriate. The revised notice will apply from the stated effective date unless a different transition is explained in the update.
How We Use Data
We use personal data to respond to inquiries, review product counts and style requirements, prepare quotes and delivery plans, arrange consultations and studio sessions, manage sample setup approval, produce and edit images, operate the private selection gallery, deliver files, process payments, maintain records, and meet legal or security obligations. We may also use technical data to keep the website functioning and to understand basic site performance.
Service Providers
We may share personal data with service providers that help operate the website, manage communications, support file storage or delivery, process payments, or maintain business systems. These parties may process data only for the services they provide to us and are expected to handle it under appropriate confidentiality and security obligations.
Legal Disclosures
We may disclose personal data when necessary to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, protect our rights, address fraud or security concerns, or support the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims. Any disclosure is limited to the information reasonably needed for the relevant purpose.
Data We Collect
We may process contact details, booking information, project briefs, product counts, shot lists, reference materials, session preferences, proof-gallery selections, delivery details, payment-related records, and technical data such as device and usage information. Where a client provides product images, brand materials, or instructions for a session, those materials may also be processed as part of the service.
