SO Captures Privacy and Confidentiality Policy
Introduction:
At SO Captures, we are committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of our clients. This policy outlines our approach to handling the personal information and images of our clients.
Collection of Personal Information:
- We collect personal information necessary to book photography sessions, process payments, and communicate with clients. This may include names, contact details, and payment information.
- Information is collected directly from clients through our website, email communications, or in-person interactions.
Use of Personal Information:
- Personal information is used solely for the purpose of fulfilling our photography services, including booking sessions, processing payments, and client communication.
- We may also use contact information to send promotional materials or service updates, but only with your explicit consent.
Protection of Personal Information:
- We implement appropriate physical, technical, and administrative measures to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
- Access to personal information is restricted to SO Captures personnel who need it to provide services to the client.
Confidentiality of Images:
- The confidentiality of images taken during photography sessions is of utmost importance to us. Without explicit consent from the client, images will not be shared with third parties, published, or used for promotional purposes.
- Clients will be asked to sign a model release form if their images are to be used for SO Captures' portfolio, website, or marketing materials. This is entirely voluntary.
Sharing of Images:
- Images may be shared with third-party vendors (e.g., printing services) only as necessary to fulfill product orders requested by the client. These vendors are also committed to protecting your information and confidentiality.
Client Access to Images:
- Clients will have access to their images through a secure, password-protected online gallery. Sharing of this access is at the discretion of the client.
Retention of Images and Personal Information:
- Personal information and images are retained only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which they were collected, including any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
- Clients may request the deletion of their personal information or images, subject to any legal obligations to retain data.
Changes to Our Privacy and Confidentiality Policy:
