If Photography Web Designs or Pasquariello Design is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, sale of assets, or similar business transaction, information may be transferred as part of that transaction where permitted by law.

15. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to provide services, maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and satisfy legal, tax, accounting, or regulatory obligations.

Information associated with inquiries that do not result in an ongoing business relationship may be periodically deleted when it is no longer reasonably necessary.

Client project files, website backups, communications, contracts, invoices, and related business records may be retained for longer periods when reasonably necessary for business, technical, archival, or legal purposes.

Where appropriate and reasonably possible, individuals may request deletion of personal information as described below.

16. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information and client information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, or misuse.

However, no website, electronic communication, hosting environment, cloud service, or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of information transmitted to or stored by Photography Web Designs.

17. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you reside, applicable privacy laws may provide certain rights regarding your personal information.

These rights may include the ability to request:

We will not discriminate against an individual for exercising privacy rights provided by applicable law.

18. Visitors Outside the United States

Photography Web Designs is operated from the United States and provides services to photographers and creative professionals in the United States and internationally.

If you access our website or provide information from another country, your information may be transferred to, processed, and stored in the United States or other jurisdictions where our service providers operate.

Privacy and data protection laws in those jurisdictions may differ from those in your country of residence.

Where applicable law requires additional protections for international data transfers, we will take reasonable steps to use appropriate safeguards.

19. Children’s Privacy

Photography Web Designs provides business-to-business services primarily for professional photographers and creative businesses. Our website and services are not directed toward children under the age of 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through this website.

Because our photographer clients may provide photographs containing children as part of website design or related services, such photographs may be temporarily accessed, processed, uploaded, transferred, or stored as necessary to perform contracted services.

The photographer or client providing those materials is responsible for obtaining any permissions, releases, or consents required for their use.

20. Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to client websites, photographer websites, social media platforms, applications, or other third-party services.

Photography Web Designs is not responsible for the privacy practices, security, content, or policies of third-party websites or services.

We encourage visitors to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites or services they use.

21. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not a universally accepted standard for responding to all browser-based Do Not Track signals, our website may not respond to these signals in all circumstances.

Where required by applicable law, we may recognize legally required browser-based opt-out preference signals.

22. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our business practices, website, technology, services, or applicable laws.

When changes are made, the “Last Updated” date at the top of this policy will be revised.
