1. Our Core Privacy Promise: Your Data is Not for Sale
The Short Version: We are photographers, not data brokers. We do not, and will not ever, sell, rent, lease, or trade your personal information, photographs, or data to third parties for marketing or commercial purposes. Period.

B. Information Collected Automatically
- Device & Usage Data: Your IP address, browser type, operating system, and browsing behavior on our site (e.g., pages viewed, time spent).
- Cookies: Small data files used to keep track of your shopping cart items, remember your preferences, and analyze website traffic. (You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some site features may stop working).
3. How We Use Your Information

- Processing and fulfilling your orders (printing, packaging, and shipping).
- Managing your customer account and processing payments securely.
