At Dar Visuals, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal data is handled in a safe and responsible manner. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and protect your information in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR).

We may collect and process the following personal data:

• Full name
   
• Contact details (email, phone number, address)
   
• Event details (e.g., date, location, type)
   
• Images and video content from photography sessions
   
• Payment and invoice information (processed securely via third-party providers)
   

We only collect the data necessary to provide our photography services effectively.

We use your information to:

• Communicate with you regarding bookings, services, and deliverables
   
• Provide and deliver our photography and videography services
   
• Manage invoices and payments
   
• Improve our services and customer experience
   
• Share images (with your consent) on our website, portfolio, or social media for promotional purposes
   

All personal data is stored securely in encrypted digital systems. We do not store payment details ourselves — all transactions are handled through secure, GDPR-compliant third-party platforms (e.g., Stripe, PayPal).

Images and videos are stored on secure cloud servers with restricted access.

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may only share data with:

• Printing or album vendors (with your permission)
   
• Cloud storage and backup providers
   
• Legal authorities if required by law
   

Under the UK GDPR, you have the right to:

• Access your data
   
• Request correction of incorrect data
   
• Request deletion of your data
   
• Object to or restrict data processing
   
• Withdraw consent at any time
   

To exercise these rights, contact us at bilal@darvisuals.co.uk.

We retain your data only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined above, or as required by law. Typically, this means:

• Client contact and booking information: up to 5 years
   
• Image archives: up to 3 years (unless otherwise agreed)
   

Our website may use cookies for functional and analytics purposes. You will be given the option to accept or manage cookie settings when visiting the site. We do not use cookies to collect personal data without your consent.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on our website and will take effect immediately upon posting.
