What information we collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect the following information:

• Your name

• Your email address

• Your phone number, if provided

• Information you include in your messages or booking requests

• Details needed to organise and deliver your photography session

• Payment and invoicing information where necessary

• Information relating to your use of our website, such as technical data and cookie preferences, where applicable

We only collect personal data that is relevant and necessary for the purposes described in this policy.

How we use your data

We may use your personal data to:

• Respond to enquiries and messages

• Discuss, arrange and manage photography bookings

• Communicate with you before and after your session

• Provide and deliver our photography services

• Process payments and meet our accounting obligations

• Maintain the security and proper functioning of our website

• Understand and improve the website and client experience, where applicable

We do not sell your personal data or use it for unrelated third-party marketing.

Legal basis for processing

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we need a valid legal basis to process your personal data. Depending on the circumstances, this may include:

• Contract: when processing is necessary to arrange or fulfil a booking or provide our services.

• Legal obligation: when we need to retain or provide information to comply with legal or accounting requirements.

• Legitimate interests: when processing is necessary for legitimate business purposes, provided these interests do not override your rights and freedoms.

• Consent: when you have given permission for a specific purpose, such as certain types of cookies or the promotional use of photographs where consent is the appropriate legal basis.

Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

Simply contacting us does not mean that you consent to every possible use of your personal data. We only process your information where a valid legal basis applies.

Photographs and promotional use

As part of our photography services, we may photograph clients, wedding couples, guests and other individuals attending an event.

Photographs are taken and delivered in accordance with the relevant booking agreement. The use of photographs for our own portfolio, website, social media channels or other promotional purposes is treated separately from the photography service itself.

Where required, we will obtain permission or establish another valid legal basis before publishing photographs in which individuals are identifiable. Permission given by a client or wedding couple does not automatically cover every guest or other person appearing in the photographs.

Where appropriate, we may ask clients to help inform guests that professional photography will take place and explain how selected images may be used. This information does not replace individual permission where it is legally required.

We take particular care when publishing photographs of children and will ensure that an appropriate legal basis is in place.

If you appear in a photograph published by us and have questions or concerns about its use, please contact us at info@nikolpeckaphotography.com. We will review your request and take appropriate action in accordance with applicable data protection law.

Data storage and retention

We take reasonable steps to keep your personal data secure and prevent unauthorised access, loss or misuse.

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

For example, certain business and financial records must be retained to meet legal accounting obligations. Enquiry and booking information may be kept for as long as reasonably necessary to manage our relationship with you and address any related questions or disputes.

Photographs and related working files are handled in accordance with our photography booking terms. Their retention period may differ from the retention period for your contact or invoicing information.

When data is no longer needed, we will delete it or take appropriate steps to anonymise it, where reasonably possible.

Sharing your data

We do not sell your personal data. We may share it only where necessary for the purposes described in this policy, for example:

• With service providers that help us operate our website, email, booking or payment systems

• With accounting or professional advisers where necessary

• With public authorities when required by law

Where third-party service providers process personal data on our behalf, we take reasonable steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place.

Some service providers may process data outside the European Economic Area. Where this applies, we will ensure that any required legal safeguards are in place.

Your rights under the GDPR

Depending on the circumstances, you have the right to:

• Request access to the personal data we hold about you

• Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data

• Request deletion of your personal data

• Request restriction of processing

• Object to certain types of processing

• Request a copy of your data in a portable format, where applicable

• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority

These rights are subject to certain legal conditions and exceptions. For example, we may need to retain some information to meet legal obligations.
