Privacy Policy

---

​We collect minimal information to provide our services and ensure the security of your orders:

• ​Website Inquiries: If you use our online contact forms to book a photo day or inquire about an order, we collect your name, email address, phone number, and league/organization details.
• ​Order Information: On-site at events, we collect customer information via physical paper forms. This includes contact details and athlete information necessary to fulfill your order.
• ​Visual Content: We capture professional photographs of athletes and families during scheduled photo days.

​To eliminate the risks associated with data breaches, hacking, and unauthorized digital access, we have implemented a strict offline data architecture:

• ​No Online Galleries: We do not host images in online galleries or cloud-based viewing platforms.
• ​No Cloud Storage: Your photos are never uploaded to the "cloud" (e.g., Google Drive, iCloud, Dropbox, or AWS).
• ​Secure Physical Storage: All digital images are stored exclusively on secure, physical hard drives that remain in our direct physical possession at our studio.
• ​Paper Records: Customer data collected on-site is maintained in physical form or entered into local, offline systems for order fulfillment.

We use the collected information solely to:

• ​Process and fulfill your photography orders.
• ​Deliver digital orders via secure direct email (if requested).
• ​Communicate with you regarding order status or scheduling.
• ​Maintain internal business records.
• ​We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information or photographs to third-party marketers or data brokers.

​We specialize in youth sports and take extra care with children’s images. Our offline process ensures that a child's image and personal data are never indexed by search engines or accessible to unauthorized internet users. We believe this approach is the highest standard of protection for families today.

​Our website may use "cookies" to improve user experience. Additionally, our forms are protected by Google reCAPTCHA to prevent spam. Use of these features is subject to the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

​We retain your physical order forms and offline image backups for a period necessary to fulfill your order and provide customer support for reprints or lost items. Once no longer needed, physical records are securely destroyed.

​You may contact us at any time to:

• ​Inquire about the data we have on file for you.
• ​Request the correction of any information.
• ​Request the deletion of your records from our offline storage (subject to order fulfillment status).
