5. PORTFOLIO, ADVERTISING AND MARKETING USE
Photography and video are central to our creative work and professional portfolio. When authorized by the applicable photography agreement, model release, property release, written permission or other valid consent, Spedale Jr. Photography LLC. may use selected photographs or video clips for legitimate portfolio, promotional and advertising purposes.
Authorized uses may include:
-
Our websites and online portfolios

Printed marketing materials

Business advertisements

Blog posts
-
Photography competitions
-
Sample albums or displays
-
Educational and behind-the-scenes content

Demonstrations of our photography, editing or video-production services
We generally do not identify photographed customers by their full names unless they separately authorize us to do so or identification is reasonably necessary for an approved project.
A photograph or video may remain recognizable even when a person’s name is not displayed. Customers should carefully review their photography agreement or release before signing it.
This Privacy Policy does not independently grant us permission to use a customer’s likeness. Portfolio and advertising rights are governed by the applicable contract, release or other authorization.
If you have a concern about an image being displayed, contact us through one of our official websites. We will review the request in good faith. Removal may not always be possible when an image has already been lawfully printed, published, distributed, licensed or used under a valid agreement.
6. PHOTOGRAPHS OF CHILDREN
Our websites and services are intended for adults, including parents and legal guardians arranging photography services for their families. They are not directed to children under 13, and children under 13 should not submit personal information through our websites.
A parent, legal guardian or other legally authorized adult must arrange a minor’s photography session and provide any required consent.
When an authorized agreement or release permits portfolio use of photographs containing minors, we may display selected images without publishing the child’s full name, school, home address or other unnecessary identifying information.
If you believe a child has submitted personal information to us without appropriate permission, contact us so we can review and, when appropriate, delete it.
7. COOKIES AND WEBSITE TECHNOLOGY
Our websites and service providers may use cookies, pixels, logs and similar technology to:
-
Keep websites operating correctly
-
Remember user preferences
-
Measure traffic and performance
-
Understand how visitors use our pages
-
Prevent spam, fraud and malicious activity
-
Support embedded galleries, maps, videos or social-media features
-
Measure advertising performance
You can limit or block cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may cause some website, gallery, checkout or booking features to function incorrectly.
Third-party content embedded on our websites may allow the provider to collect information according to its own privacy practices.
8. WHEN INFORMATION MAY BE SHARED
We may share information only as reasonably necessary with:
-
Website-hosting and domain providers

A successor or purchaser involved in a lawful merger, sale or transfer of the business
Service providers receive only the information reasonably necessary to perform their services and are subject to their own legal and contractual responsibilities.
We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to protect the safety, rights, property or security of our customers, the public, Spedale Jr. Photography LLC. or our websites.
9. DATA SECURITY
We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, alteration or misuse.
Customer galleries and payment transactions are primarily supported by established third-party providers such as SmugMug and Square. However, no website, internet transmission, storage system or security method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Customers should use strong passwords, protect gallery access information and avoid sending sensitive financial or identity information through ordinary email or contact forms.
10. DATA RETENTION
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for:
-
Providing photography and video services
-
Maintaining and delivering customer galleries
-
Processing orders
-
Preserving business, accounting, tax and legal records
-
Handling disputes or enforcing agreements
-
Maintaining authorized portfolio materials
-
Protecting against fraud or security threats
-
Preserving photographic archives and backups
Retention periods may differ depending on the type of information, contractual obligations, storage-provider settings and legal requirements.
Deleting an active gallery does not necessarily remove every backup copy immediately. Backup copies may remain temporarily until they are overwritten through the provider’s regular backup process.
11. CUSTOMER CHOICES AND REQUESTS
Subject to applicable law and contractual rights, you may ask us to:
-
Confirm whether we maintain personal information about you
-
Correct inaccurate contact information
-
Delete certain personal information
-
Stop sending nonessential promotional emails
-
Review a concern involving a photograph or video

Provide information about how your data has been used
We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. We may retain information when reasonably necessary to complete a contract, maintain financial records, preserve evidence of consent, protect legal rights, prevent fraud or comply with the law.
To stop receiving promotional emails, use the unsubscribe option when available or contact us. Transactional communications concerning an active booking, order, gallery or customer-service matter may continue.
12. THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES
Our websites may link to SmugMug, Square, social-media platforms, mapping services or other third-party websites.
We do not control and are not responsible for the content, security or privacy practices of independent third parties. Review the privacy policy of any third-party service before submitting information.
13. DO NOT TRACK AND GLOBAL PRIVACY CONTROLS
Some browsers provide “Do Not Track” or similar privacy signals. Because there is not one universally accepted response standard for every signal and website technology, our websites may not respond to all such signals.
Where applicable law requires recognition of a legally valid browser-based opt-out preference, we will take reasonable steps to honor that requirement.
14. VISITORS FROM OUTSIDE FLORIDA
Spedale Jr. Photography LLC. is a Florida business operating primarily in Florida. If you access our websites from another state or country, your information may be processed and stored in the United States.
Additional privacy rights may apply depending on your location and the scope of the applicable law. You may contact us regarding a privacy request.
15. DATA BREACH RESPONSE
If we discover unauthorized access involving protected personal information, we will investigate the incident, take reasonable corrective action and provide any notification required by applicable law.
16. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our websites, services, technology, providers or legal obligations.
The updated version will be posted with a revised “Last Updated” date. Continued use of our websites after an update constitutes acknowledgment of the revised policy.
