Privacy Policy
Personal data I collectI collect your name and your email address so I can communicate with you, your mobile number in case I need to call you, your address so I can post your photos to you and take your photographs because that’s what you’ve paid me to do! All of this is necessary for me to do my job.
How I collect and keep your personal dataMy contact form on my website, which arrives in a email inbox that is passworded and if you go ahead with booking me, I will store your email in my client database software (a GDPR compliant company), which is only accessible through one admin account. If you enquire but don’t book me (hopefully doesn't happen!), I will delete all your personal data after six months.
Right of confirmation, access, rectification and erasureIf you have questions about how your personal data is handled, you can just drop me an email. I’m happy to show you the information I have on you and if some of the information is wrong, you have the right to correct it. If you’d like me to delete all your personal data, you have the right to request it, but I definitely need to know stuff about you to work for you! I do tend to keep email addresses of my clients in the database for the duration that I provide your online galleries- if you’d like to fully close your account with me in a manner of speaking, just let me know and I can totally purge any data pertaining to you.
Use of your dataThe summary of this is that I don't usually contact people randomly. I will 100% definitely use your email to email you about your wedding or portrait session. I wouldn’t give your email out to anyone else and I also won’t be sending you lots of newsletters as I don't tend to do them!
I have a questionnaire that asks you for details about your wedding day or portrait session, that doesn’t go anywhere bar my computer. After your wedding or portrait session I might send you a questionnaire for a blog post, you aren’t obliged to fill it out and what you write in there may be edited into content for your blog feature. Any and all information I request from you is entirely voluntary.
Use of your face-based dataWhen it comes to your photographs, the EU hasn’t gotten too specific about what that means for working photographers bar that we need to demonstrate reasonable and legitimate use. I can tell you that I won’t sell or use your photographs without your consent or knowledge.
There’s a couple of things I do to run my business, like show my work on facebook, instagram and my own website. If you have booked me you probably looked at photos of my real couples or cute babies on these various sites. I do ask people to opt into this in my contract, but you can always decide to keep your images private. I have shot a lot of weddings and portraits that no one has seen, at the end of the day I respect that some people don’t want to be on the Internet. Even if you don’t specify that you want out, I will actually ask you directly after the wedding or portrait session as well if you’re ok with me putting you and your guests on my website. You can veto any photos you do not like, and it is your responsibility to ask your guests’ permission.
I store photos of your lovely lovely faces on password encrypted hard drives in my house that is behind a double locked door. It’s a really good quality lock that I personally chose for its level of security. I also keep a copy of your faces with an online gallery provider that is GDPR compliant.
GDPR compliancy achieved!The new EU regulations require me to just do stuff that’s fairly within the realms of my job role, I guess all you really need to know is that I’m a nice human being who wants to be able to do my job but who won’t use your images without your consent.
