Children's information

Because Pro Baby Photos specialises in newborn baby photography at home, images and limited information relating to children are handled with extra care. Parents or legal guardians normally manage privacy choices for newborns, babies and young children.

How information is used

Information is used to respond to enquiries, arrange bookings, take payments, plan the photoshoot, prepare props and equipment, travel to the session, keep the baby and family safe, edit images, deliver galleries, keep business records, handle complaints and improve the service.

Portfolio and marketing use

Selected images from a session may be used for website portfolio, social media, online advertising, printed marketing, sample galleries and promotional material. If you want your images, your child's images or your family images kept private, tell Pro Baby Photos in writing before or at the time of booking.

Reviews and testimonials

If you leave a review or testimonial, it may be used for marketing, website or social media purposes. Full addresses and private contact details are not published.

Payment information

Payment records, invoice details, transaction references and payment status may be kept. Full card details are not normally stored directly by Pro Baby Photos.

Sharing information

Limited information may be shared with trusted providers where needed to run the business, such as online gallery providers, website hosting providers, payment processors, accountants, legal advisers, printing labs, IT support providers and social media or advertising platforms.

How long information is kept

Final online galleries and delivered digital images are normally kept available for 60 days after delivery. Booking, invoice, payment, accounting, contract and tax records may be kept for up to 6 years or longer where required by law.
