At Chris Loring Photography, I value your privacy and am committed to protecting your personal information and images. This Privacy Policy outlines how your client gallery and related data are handled.

1. Personal Information

When you access your gallery, I may collect basic information such as:

• Your name and email address (used to grant gallery access or send delivery updates)

• IP address and browser details (used to improve gallery functionality and protect security)

This information is never sold, rented, or shared with third parties, except as required by law.

2. Image Privacy

Your gallery is private and accessible only via a unique, unlisted URL. In some cases, a password may be required for additional protection.

Unless you’ve given explicit written permission (such as via a model release or your photography contract), your images will not be shared publicly, posted on social media, used in marketing, or submitted to publications.

3. Third-Party Services

Your gallery may be hosted by a third-party platform that is secure and GDPR-compliant. While I select platforms that respect your privacy, their own privacy policies also apply. If you order prints through the gallery, your payment and shipping information is processed securely by that provider.

4. Data Retention

• Your gallery will remain online for a limited time (typically 90 days), after which it will be archived or deleted.

• It is your responsibility to download and securely store your images during the access window.

• Backups of delivered images may be retained by Chris Loring Photography for a limited period but are not guaranteed once the gallery expires.
  

5. Your Rights

If you would like to request deletion of your gallery or have concerns about how your data is being handled, please contact me directly at [your email].

Thank you for trusting me with your memories. I take that responsibility seriously and am committed to keeping your images and information secure.
