At J&M Photography, we understand the importance of safeguarding your personal data and are fully committed to maintaining the privacy of our clients and website visitors. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your information, and outlines your rights under applicable data protection laws, including the UK GDPR. We encourage you to read this policy carefully to understand how your data is handled when you interact with our services, whether you're browsing our gallery, reaching out via contact forms, or booking a photography session.
We collect personal information such as your name, email address, phone number, and any message content you submit through our contact or booking forms. This information is gathered solely for legitimate business purposes, such as responding to enquiries, confirming appointments, and delivering exceptional photographic services tailored to your needs. We also collect technical data including your IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited, to help us improve the design, functionality, and content of our website. This may be done using cookies, analytics tools, or other tracking technologies that help us understand user behavior without personally identifying you.
The personal information we collect is used exclusively to operate and enhance our services. For example, we may use your contact details to provide updates about your booking, send invoices, or, if you’ve explicitly opted in, deliver our newsletter or promotional offers. We do not sell, rent, or trade your data with third parties. Your information may be shared only with secure, trusted providers—such as Wix, which hosts our website, or Google Analytics, which helps us assess site performance. These providers are contractually bound to comply with strict data protection requirements.
Your data is stored securely on servers managed by Wix, which is known for its robust security infrastructure. We employ encryption, firewall protection, and access controls to ensure that your personal data is protected from unauthorized access, accidental loss, or misuse. We retain your information only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected or to comply with legal obligations. When no longer required, your data is securely deleted.
You have full control over your personal data. This includes the right to request access to the information we hold about you, correct inaccuracies, or ask for deletion. You also have the right to object to or restrict certain types of data processing. If at any time you would like to exercise these rights or withdraw consent for communications, you can contact us via matei.mindrila@gmail.com or call +44 7484 380236. We will respond promptly and in accordance with legal timeframes.
Our website uses cookies to ensure it functions properly and to enhance your browsing experience. These cookies may store preferences, track traffic, and provide anonymized statistics. You can manage or disable cookies at any time through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the usability of our site. We also use third-party services, such as Google Analytics, to gather aggregated data and help us understand how our site is used. These tools do not identify individual users and are used purely for analytical and site optimization purposes.
If you’re under the age of 18, we kindly ask that you obtain consent from a parent or guardian before providing any personal data. Our services are not intentionally targeted at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under 18 without appropriate consent.
We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page and marked with an updated effective date. We encourage you to check back periodically to stay informed about how we protect your data.
If you have any questions, concerns, or feedback about this policy or how your personal information is being handled, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Your trust means everything to us, and we’re always here to provide clarity and support.
