This privacy policy explains how Capture Essence handles personal data when you use the website, send an inquiry, or arrange photography services. It is written for a small event photography business and covers only the data practices described here.
We may collect your name, email address, phone number if you choose to provide it, inquiry message, shoot requirements, and preferred date or session details. We also process limited technical data such as server request metadata and browser or device information to keep the site working and secure.
We receive personal data when you submit a contact form, send an email, call us, or share details during a planning call. Technical information is collected through normal website use and local acknowledgement handling for form delivery.
Essential cookies help the site operate and support basic security functions. Preference cookies remember privacy choices so you do not need to reset them on each visit.
We use only essential cookies needed for site operation and cookies that store privacy preferences. If your browser blocks cookies, some parts of the site may not function as intended.
We process personal data to respond to inquiries, review event details, prepare a coverage plan and quote, confirm booking and access details, deliver the requested photography service, and provide the private gallery or related follow-up. We also use limited technical data to maintain site security, support form delivery, and keep the website functioning properly.
We may share data with trusted operational providers that help us run the website, deliver technical support, or manage communications. These parties are expected to handle information for the agreed purpose and to keep it confidential where appropriate.
We may share personal data with public authorities, courts, or other parties when required by applicable law, a lawful request, or a valid legal process. We may also disclose information if needed to protect the security of the website, prevent misuse, or address a legal dispute.
You may ask to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you, and you may object to or limit certain processing where the law allows it. If you want to review the information tied to an inquiry or booking, we will consider the request and respond in a practical way that fits the circumstances.
To make a privacy request, use one of the contact methods listed below and describe what you want us to do. We may ask for enough information to verify that the request is genuine and to locate the relevant records.
Inquiry records are kept while we are handling the request and for a practical period afterward in case we need to follow up, manage booking details, or resolve a service issue. Technical logs are kept for security and system maintenance, then removed or anonymized when they are no longer needed.
If we make a material change, we will update the policy on the website and use a reasonable method to draw attention to the change when appropriate. The version in effect is the one posted at the time you use the site.
