Weddings By Holly Lou ("we," "us," or "our") operates weddingsbyhollylou.com (the "Site"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal data with transparency and care. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our Site or book our wedding photography services.

1. Information We Collect
We collect information that you voluntarily provide to us and information that is automatically generated during your visit.

• Personal Contact Details: Your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address.
• Event Specifications: Details about your wedding or event, including dates, locations, venue details, and timelines.
• Client Portal Information: Contract signatures, questionnaires, and communications submitted through our systems.

2. How We Use Your Information
We use your data strictly to provide a professional, seamless experience:

• Service Delivery: Fulfilling our contractual photography services and managing communication.
• Booking & Business Operations: Processing inquiries, scheduling consultations, invoicing, and contract management.
• Site Optimization: Analyzing visitor traffic and usage patterns to improve user experience.

3. Third-Party Service Providers
We partner with trusted third-party platforms to manage our business and securely deliver your images:

• Client Relationship Management (CRM): We use HoneyBook to process inquiry forms, manage communications, handle bookings, sign contracts, and securely facilitate payments.
• Gallery Delivery: Your final high-resolution images are hosted and delivered through SmugMug. Images are subject to SmugMug’s privacy and data protection standards.
• Analytics: We use Google Analytics to track and evaluate website performance. Google Analytics uses cookies to gather anonymous traffic statistics (such as browser type, pages viewed, and visit duration). You can manage or disable cookies directly in your web browser settings.

4. Image Rights & Model Releases
The production, digital hosting, public portfolio sharing, and copyright management of your photographs are explicitly governed by your individual photography contract. While final image galleries are securely delivered via SmugMug, the specific rights concerning public display, advertising use, or social media promotion require mutual agreement via your signed contract or a dedicated model release form.

5. Data Retention & Security
We implement standard electronic and administrative measures to secure your personal data. We retain client data, operational communications, and event specifications for as long as necessary to fulfill business purposes and comply with legal or tax regulations.

6. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you, request corrections to inaccurate information, or request the deletion of your personal details (excluding data we are legally required to retain).
