PRIVACY POLICY FOR TILTIN TALES

Effective date: November 1, 2025

Tiltin Tales Photography (“we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy and complies with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) of Canada. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information in accordance with Canadian privacy standards and, where applicable, global regulations such as GDPR (EU) and CCPA (California).

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following information when you contact or work with us:

  • Your name(s)

  • Email address, phone number, and preferred contact details

  • Event or session information (date, venue, timing, and details)

  • Home or mailing address (for album or print delivery)

  • Information shared through our website forms or HoneyBook inquiries

  • Website analytics such as IP address, device type, and page interactions

We only collect personal information that is necessary to provide our photography services, respond to your inquiries, or improve your experience.

2. How We Use Your Information

Your information is used to:

  • Respond to inquiries and communicate with you

  • Provide quotes, contracts, and invoices

  • Plan and fulfill photography sessions or projects

  • Send galleries, albums, or related materials

  • Maintain records for tax and business purposes

  • Improve our services, website, and marketing

We never sell or trade your personal data. Your information is used only for legitimate business purposes.

3. Legal Basis for Processing (Canadian & International Clients)

Under Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA), we process your personal information only:

  • With your consent (when you fill out forms or contact us)

  • When it is necessary for providing services you request

  • When it is required for legal or accounting purposes

If you are a resident of the EU or UK, our processing is based on Article 6(1) of GDPR — your consent, contractual necessity, or legitimate interest.

4. Data Storage and Protection

We do not store anything other than necessary data in order to provide you with the best service and educational/legitimate materials to your experience with me.

All platforms we use follow strong privacy and security measures.
If your information is transferred outside Canada (for example, Pixieset servers in the U.S.), we ensure it remains protected under comparable privacy standards.

5. Retention and Deletion

  • Inquiry data is deleted if no response is received within 30 days.

  • Booking data is stored until completion of the project and for up to one year afterward for recordkeeping.

  • Edited images are deleted from internal drives after one year, but your online gallery remains active for download until removal is confirmed.

You can request deletion of your personal information at any time by emailing info@tiltintales.com.

6. Your Images

Images captured during your session or wedding are handled with confidentiality.
We back up your photos on secure, encrypted drives and upload final images to Pixieset for delivery.
We may share selected images on our website, portfolio, or social media — but only with your explicit written consent.

7. Your Rights

Under PIPEDA and applicable global laws, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you

  • Request correction or updates to your data

  • Withdraw consent for marketing or communications

  • Request deletion of your information

To exercise these rights, contact us at info@tiltintales.com.

8. Cookies and Analytics

Our website uses cookies and analytics tools (such as Google Analytics and Meta Pixel) to improve user experience and marketing relevance.
Cookies may collect anonymous data such as your IP address and browsing activity.
You can disable cookies at any time through your browser settings.

9. Third-Party Data Use

We only share your data with trusted third parties necessary for business operations (for example, gallery hosts or print labs).
All third parties are required to protect your information and use it only for the agreed purpose.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Updates will appear on this page with a new effective date.
