1 Breath Photography, based in London, Ontario, is committed to protecting the privacy of everyone we work with, including clients, nominees, and website visitors. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices available to you.

Who We Are

1 Breath Photography offers gifted, pro bono portrait photography sessions to families and individuals across Southwestern Ontario. We do not sell products, prints, or packages, and there is no online store on this website.

Information We Collect

We may collect the following information when you contact us, book a session, or submit a nomination on behalf of someone else:

Name, email address, and phone number
Location details needed to arrange a session
Information shared in nomination or inquiry messages, such as the reason for the request
Photographs and video taken during a session
Testimonials or reviews you choose to share with us

We do not knowingly collect financial information, since no products or paid services are offered through this site.

How We Use Your Information

Information collected is used to:

Respond to inquiries and nominations
Schedule, prepare for, and conduct photography sessions
Communicate with you before and after a session
Share testimonials, with your permission, on this website or social media
Feature images from sessions in our portfolio, published works, or charity partnerships, where consent has been given

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information to third parties.

Photography and Image Consent

Because sessions often involve deeply personal moments, including births, pet farewells, and end of life experiences, consent is central to how we handle images.

Written or verbal consent is obtained before any session begins.
Clients are asked whether images may be used publicly, such as on this website, social media, or in published works, or kept private for personal use only.
Clients may request that specific images not be published, or that previously shared images be removed, at any time by contacting us.
We take extra care with sessions involving children and infants. Parental or guardian consent is always required before any image of a minor is published anywhere.
Cookies and Website Analytics

This website may use basic analytics tools to understand general visitor trends, such as page views. These tools do not collect personal information like your name or email address. If this changes in the future, this policy will be updated accordingly.

Sharing of Information

We only share personal information or images with third parties in limited circumstances, such as:

With your explicit consent, for example when a photo is shared with a partnering charity or publication
With service providers who help operate this website, who are required to keep information confidential
Where required by law
Data Retention

We retain contact information and images for as long as needed to provide our services, maintain our portfolio, and honour any consent given. You may request that we delete your information or images at any time, subject to reasonable exceptions such as legal recordkeeping requirements.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

Ask what personal information we hold about you
Request corrections to inaccurate information
Withdraw consent for image use at any time
Request deletion of your information or images

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details below.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information and images in our care from loss, misuse, or unauthorized access. However, no method of storage or transmission over the internet is completely secure.

Third Party Links

Our website may contain links to third party sites, such as Facebook and Instagram. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, and encourage you to review their own policies.

Children's Privacy

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children. Photography sessions involving minors are always conducted with the consent and presence of a parent or legal guardian.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in our practices. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised date.
