online is important to users of our Site. This statement governs our privacy policies
with respect to those users of the Site ("Visitors") who visit without transacting

"Personally Identifiable Information"
refers to any information that identifies or can be used to identify, contact, or
locate the person to whom such information pertains, including, but not limited

Personally Identifiable Information does not include information that is collected

What Personally Identifiable Information is collected?
We may collect basic user profile information from all of our Visitors. We collect
the following additional information from our Authorised Customers: the names, addresses,
phone numbers and email addresses of Authorised Customers, based on their use of
the Site.
What organisations are collecting the information?
In addition to our direct collection of information, our third party service vendors
(such as credit card companies, clearinghouses and banks) who may provide such services
as credit, insurance, and escrow services may collect this information from our
Visitors and Authorised Customers. We do not control how these third parties use
such information, but we do ask them to disclose how they use personal information
provided to them from Visitors and Authorised Customers. Some of these third parties
may be intermediaries that act solely as links in the distribution chain, and do
not store, retain, or use the information given to them.
How does the Site use Personally Identifiable Information?
We use Personally Identifiable Information to customise the Site, to make appropriate
service offerings, and to fulfil buying and selling requests on the Site. We may
email Visitors and Authorised Customers about research or purchase and selling opportunities
on the Site or information related to the subject matter of the Site. We may also
use Personally Identifiable Information to contact Visitors and Authorised Customers
in response to specific enquiries, or to provide requested information.
With whom may the information be shared?
We will not share Personally Identifiable Information with any third-party, other
than that required to complete a transaction (such as payment clearing services).
What choices are available to Visitors regarding collection, use and distribution
of the information?
Visitors and Authorised Customers may opt out of receiving unsolicited information
from or being contacted by us by responding to emails as instructed, or by contacting
us at steve@stevemorganphotography.co.uk
Are Cookies Used on the Site?
Cookies are used for a variety of reasons. We use Cookies to obtain information
about the preferences of our Visitors and the services they select. We also use
Cookies for security purposes to protect our Authorised Customers. For example,
if an Authorised Customer is logged on and the site is unused for more than 20 minutes,
we will automatically log the Authorised Customer off.
How does SteveMorganPhotography.co.uk use login information?
SteveMorganPhotography.co.uk uses login information, including, but not limited
to, IP addresses, ISPs, and browser types, to analyse trends, administer the Site,
track a user's movement and use, and gather broad demographic information.
What organisations have access to Personally Identifiable Information from Visitors
and/or Authorised Customers on the Site?
Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information to comply with law. We will disclose
Personally Identifiable Information in order to comply with a court order or a request
from a law enforcement agency to release information. We will also disclose Personally
Identifiable Information when reasonably necessary to protect the safety of our
Visitors and Authorised Customers.
How does the Site keep Personally Identifiable Information secure?
All of our employees are familiar with our security policy and practices. The Personally
Identifiable Information of our Visitors and Authorised Customers is only accessible
to a limited number of qualified employees who are given a password in order to
gain access to the information. We audit our security systems and processes on a
regular basis. Sensitive information, such as credit card numbers, is protected
by encryption protocols, in place to protect information sent over the Internet.
While we take commercially reasonable measures to maintain a secure site, electronic
communications and databases are subject to errors, tampering and break-ins, and
we cannot guarantee or warrant that such events will not take place and we will
not be liable to Visitors or Authorised Customers for any such occurrences.
How can Visitors correct any inaccuracies in Personally Identifiable Information?
Visitors and Authorised Customers may contact us to update Personally Identifiable
Information about them or to correct any inaccuracies by emailing us at
steve@stevemorganphotography.co.uk
Can a Visitor delete or deactivate Personally Identifiable Information collected
by the Site?
We provide Visitors and Authorised Customers with a mechanism to delete/deactivate
Personally Identifiable Information from the Site's database by contacting
steve@stevemorganphotography.co.uk. However, because of backups and records
of deletions, it may be impossible to delete a Visitor's entry without retaining
some residual information. An individual who requests to have Personally Identifiable
Information deactivated will have this information functionally deleted, and we
will not sell, transfer, or use Personally Identifiable Information relating to
that individual in any way moving forward.
What happens if the Privacy Policy Changes?
We will let our Visitors and Authorised Customers know about changes to our privacy
policy by posting such changes on the Site. However, if we are changing our privacy
policy in a manner that might cause disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information
that a Visitor or Authorised Customer has previously requested not be disclosed,
we will contact such Visitor or Authorised Customer to allow such Visitor or Authorised
Customer to prevent such disclosure.
