Privacy policy
Sam Jobi Media is a photography business based in London. This page explains what personal information this website collects, why, and what you can ask me to do with it.
Questions about any of it can go to contact@samjobimedia.com.
What I collect and why
Enquiries
The enquiry form asks for your name, email address and a message. You can also add a phone number, the event type, date and venue, the package you are interested in and how you heard about me. I use these to reply to you, to quote and to plan your booking.
Reviews
If you leave a review, I store your name, your words and your rating. Reviews appear on the site once I have approved them. If you add an email address, I use it only to contact you about the review. It is never shown.
Client galleries
To open a private gallery you enter a code and your email address. I store that email address with the photos you favourite or select, any comments you leave and a record of downloads. This lets me deliver your photos and see which ones you have chosen.
Photographs
Photos from your shoot are stored so I can deliver them to you. I only show client photos in the public portfolio with your agreement, and you can ask me to take one down at any time.
Technical information
When you send a form or open a gallery, the site uses your IP address for a short time to stop repeated or automated attempts.
Cookies and tracking
This website does not use advertising or tracking cookies. Visits to the public pages are counted with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which sets no cookies and does not identify you or follow you to other websites.
If you open a client gallery, your browser keeps an access key for up to 7 days so you stay signed in on that device. Nothing else is stored in your browser.
Services that handle your information
- Cloudflare hosts the website, counts visits to it and stores client gallery photos on servers in the EU.
- Supabase stores enquiries, reviews, gallery records and portfolio photos on servers in London.
- Resend delivers the emails the site sends, such as enquiry confirmations.
- Google Fonts supplies the typefaces, so Google receives your IP address when a page loads.
I do not sell your information or pass it to anyone for marketing.
How long I keep it
- Enquiries and booking details are kept for up to 6 years.
- Client gallery records, such as your email address, favourites and comments, are kept for 1 year after your gallery is delivered.
You can ask me to delete your information sooner.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you can ask me to:
- send you a copy of the information I hold about you
- correct anything that is wrong
- delete your information
- stop using your photos in the portfolio
Email contact@samjobimedia.com and I will reply within one month. If you are unhappy with how I have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
