Who we are

This website is operated by Wedding Photographer Newcastle, a wedding photography business based in Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom. We are the data controller for the personal information described in this policy. You can contact us about privacy at info@weddingphotographernewcastle.uk.

What we collect

When you send an enquiry through our website we collect the information you give us: your names, email address, phone number if provided, wedding date, venue or location, the type of coverage you are interested in and anything you write in your message. We also record the page you sent the enquiry from.

If you book with us, we will also hold the details needed to deliver your wedding photography, such as your postal address, the timeline for your day, the names of family members for group photographs and records of payments.

Our website does not use advertising or tracking cookies.

How we use it

To reply to your enquiry, check availability and send you a quote (legitimate interests and steps taken at your request before entering a contract).
To plan, photograph and deliver your wedding photography if you book (performance of a contract).
To keep financial records for tax and accounting purposes (legal obligation).

We will never sell your information or add you to a marketing list without your clear permission.

Who we share it with

Our enquiry form is processed by Formspree, which delivers your message to our inbox. We also use trusted providers for email, online gallery hosting, secure file storage and accounting. These providers only process your information on our instructions. Some may store data outside the UK, in which case appropriate safeguards are in place as required by UK data protection law.

Your photographs

Your wedding photographs contain personal information about you and your guests. We store them securely and deliver them through a private online gallery. We may ask your permission to share a selection of images on our website or social media. You are free to say no, and you can withdraw your permission at any time.

How long we keep it

If you enquire but do not book, we delete your enquiry within 12 months. If you book, we keep your contract and financial records for six years to meet legal requirements, and we keep backup copies of your photographs for the period set out in your contract.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to ask us to correct or delete it, to object to or restrict how we use it and to ask for a copy in a portable format. To use any of these rights, email info@weddingphotographernewcastle.uk. If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
