This privacy policy is for Elopement Weddings Photography. It explains how I comply with the EU’s GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) legislation. This policy will explain areas of this website that may affect your privacy and personal details, how I process, collect, manage and store those details and how your rights under the GDPR are adhered to.

CONTACTING ME

When you’ve decided that you want to work with me, you’ll fill in the contact form on my website (which asks for your name, your email address and some details about the wedding or event you want me to photograph), I’ll use that data to reply to you with the information that you are requesting. I won’t share your data with anyone else.

To keep me organized your enquiry data is stored in an excel list.

WHAT DATA I COLLECT

The data I store includes your names, your email addresses, telephone numbers, your postal address and details about your wedding day. All of this information is collected so that I can do the job that you have hired me for. I don’t store any bank details or pin numbers.

NEWSLETTERS

I have one of those email newsletter thingys in MailChimp where you give me your email address and your name in return for some cool guide and the permission for me to email you with interesting news and stuff related to weddings or other things that I think you’ll find interesting. In reality, I’m a bit rubbish at sending out newsletters, so you might get one email each month from me with some random drivel about stuff that I think you might find interesting plus an automated email that sends you a summary of what I’ve been blogging about.

You will only receive my newsletter if you knowingly signed up for it, as you’ll need to reconfirm that you want to receive it during the signup process. If you decide that my newsletter is a bit boring, you can unsubscribe at any time by clicking a link in one of the emails. Your data is stored securely in MailChimp and is not shared with any third parties.

COOKIE MONSTERS & INTERNET STALKING

Does anybody really know what cookies do? Apparently, the internet pages of elopement weddings photography use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser. Through the use of cookies, the elopement weddings photography can provide the users of my website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting. In real-world terms, this mainly means that if you’ve looked at images once, it will be stored in your cookie jar so that the next time you come back, everything you’ve looked at before loads faster. You can always block cookies through some magic browser settings, but you might find everything runs a little slower.

I use Google Analytics on my website to look at which pages people look at the most and for how long, and at which pages never get looked at. Neither of these services stores any personal data.

I do have a Facebook Pixel installed on my website. Essentially it tells Facebook if you have been on my website so that when I’m trying to sell something via Facebook , Facebook knows whether it’s something you might want to see in your newsfeed or not.

BLOG COMMENTS

All of my blog posts have the option to leave some notes in the comments section, either directly on the website or via a Facebook plugin. The comments function requires you to leave your name and email address (or login using Facebook) to prove that you are a real person and not a robot. Your email address is not published as part of your comment and is only visible to me when I am logged in to the secure backend of my website. I will not use this information to contact you or pass it on to anyone else. If you don’t want to share this information, it’s probably best not to leave a comment.

EXTERNAL WEBSITE LINKS

I mainly link to wedding and travel-related stuff, but if you do decide to click on any links from my website, I’m not responsible for the websites or content that you find on the other end.

YOUR PHOTOGRAPHS

If I’ve photographed you then you’ll be sent your images via an online client gallery. My galleries are externally hosted by PicDrop. Their privacy policy can be found here: https://www.picdrop.com/web/de/privacy/

FACES AND PHOTOS

When you hire me to photograph your wedding or event, you’re hiring me to capture a “visual representation” of the day, which includes photographing the guests who are attending. If there are any guests who do not wish to be photographed, they should make themselves known at the start of the event. Once you receive your final gallery you can also let me know if there are any particular pictures that would like to keep private.

SOCIAL MEDIA & BLOGS SHIZZLE

My website, Facebook, and Instagram are basically my shopfront. When super awesome couples (like you) are searching for an photographer they usually snoop around online to find stuff that they like and if I only had 5 images on my website you probably wouldn’t want to book me as your photographer, no matter how awesome those 5 images were. So sharing my images online is a really vital part of my business. Some posts may include your names or you might be “tagged” on social media posts. If you don’t want to be named or tagged, or if there are certain pictures you don’t want sharing, just let me know. I’m not going to be a dick about it if you want to keep some things private.

Sometimes I will submit your awesome pictures to a wedding blog or magazine to be featured, or if it is really epic, to a competition. You’ll have the chance to opt-in to being featured and any pictures you don’t want sharing will stay private.

TRANSMITTING DATA TO THIRD PARTIES

Sometimes I need to share some of your data with other people in order to provide you with the services you’ve booked me for.

I may give your phone numbers and names to my second shooter to make sure that they can find you on your wedding day if they are not travelling with me.

If you order a wedding album, your images will be sent via a secure webpage to my album printers nPhoto as well as your first names if you want them printed on the front cover of your album. No other personal data will be shared with them. Once I receive your printed album, I will write your names and address on the parcel, as without these the postman/carrier pigeon will find it quite hard to know where to deliver it.

The only other occasion where your data may be shared is if it is requested for legal proceedings. I’m not sure when this would ever happen though.

YOUR RIGHTS

Under the new GDPR regs, you have the right to access, confirmation, rectification, and erasure. If you want to know what data I hold on you and where is stored, you can drop me an email at any time to hello@elopementweddings.at. If any of the data is incorrect, please let me know how to correct it. You also have the right to be forgotten, and while I will never forget the magical moments we shared, I will erase all data that I hold with your personal information on your request.
