Arta

Something a little more haunting from me as Halloween approaches. Some might find it too dark, but this time I let my imagination wander and stepped outside the usual boundaries. Creative sessions are my favourites because there’s so much room to express yourself.

Privacy policy

Welcome! Please read this privacy policy to learn what data I collect, how I use it and what rights you have.

1. Who am I?

I, Vija Breijere, a wedding and portrait photographer, am the controller of your personal data. You can contact me at vijabreijere@gmail.com or +371 29947382.

2. What data do I process, and why?

I process only the data needed to:

When you contact me, I may receive your name, email address, phone number, planned date, venue, selected service and message. If we communicate on social media, I may also process your profile name and correspondence.

3. Legal basis

I process data needed before or during a contract on the basis of your request to arrange a service and the performance of that contract. I retain invoices and accounting information to meet legal obligations. I may rely on legitimate interests to keep communications secure and protect my rights.

4. Photographs, videos and portfolio

Photographs and videos in which a person can be identified may be personal data. For portfolio or marketing publications, I use only material whose use has been agreed with the client and, where necessary, other people shown or a child’s legal representative. Publication arrangements are recorded separately, for example in a contract or written consent.

If you do not want your images published, please tell me before we enter into a contract or email vijabreijere@gmail.com. I will assess any justified request to delete images or stop publishing them.

5. Copyright

The photographs and videos I create are my original works and are protected by the Latvian Copyright Law. The service price, the client’s rights to use the delivered material and any transfer of economic copyright are set out in a separate contract. This privacy policy does not itself transfer copyright or replace a contract.

6. Privacy choices and pricing

If an offer includes a price difference for permission to use material in a portfolio or for full confidentiality, the specific conditions, duration and amount are stated in the offer or contract. Access to the service must not be made conditional on consent to marketing publications.

7. How long do I keep data?

I keep enquiries that do not lead to a booking for 6 months after the last correspondence, then delete them from WordPress and email unless the data is needed to meet a legal obligation or resolve a dispute. Applicable law determines how long contracts, invoices and accounting records must be retained.

We agree on photograph and video retention periods, backups and delivery arrangements in the contract or a separate agreement.

8. Who may have access to data?

Data may be available to me and authorised technical service providers, such as hosting or email providers, only to perform their tasks. Data may be disclosed to a competent authority where required by law.

9. Cookies and external services

To operate the website, the server may process technical information such as your IP address. The contact form uses security tokens and limits repeated submissions. If a YouTube player is loaded, Google may process technical data. Clicking an Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube or WhatsApp link takes you to that service, where its own terms apply.

10. Your rights

You have the right to request access to your data, correction, erasure, restriction of processing and, where applicable, data portability. You may object to processing based on legitimate interests and withdraw consent. Please write to vijabreijere@gmail.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Latvian Data State Inspectorate.

11. Changes to this policy

I update this policy if the website’s operation or use of data changes. The current version is always available here.
