What I collect

When you contact me through my website or email, I receive the information you choose to share, such as:

• Your name, email address, and phone number.
• Details about your wedding, photoshoot, event, or creative project.
• Your preferred dates, locations, and any special requests.

If you book a session, I also keep the information needed to organize and deliver your photography, including booking details, invoices, payments, and photographs.

Why I use it

I use your information to respond to enquiries, prepare quotes, arrange bookings, deliver photographs, and keep the business running smoothly.

This is generally because you've asked about my services, we've entered into an agreement, I have a legitimate business reason, or I'm required to keep certain records by law.

I never sell your personal information or add you to marketing mailing lists without the appropriate permission.

Where it's kept

My website and its enquiry and booking features are hosted through Spaceship. Messages sent through my website are delivered to my business email inbox, managed through Microsoft Outlook.

Some information may be processed or stored outside Norway, Switzerland, or the European Economic Area, depending on where these providers operate.

Where required, appropriate data protection safeguards are used to protect information transferred internationally.

Only authorized people have access to client information.

How long I keep it

If you enquire but don't make a booking, I normally delete your enquiry within two years of our last conversation.

If you book, I keep the necessary booking and payment records for as long as required by applicable accounting and tax laws.

Photographs may be kept for delivery, agreed archival purposes, or portfolio use where permitted.

Your rights

You can contact me to ask what personal information I hold about you, correct anything that's inaccurate, or request that your information be deleted.

Depending on the law that applies, you may also have other rights, including asking me to stop certain uses of your information.

Simply email [email protected], and I'll respond within the time required by law.

If you're unhappy with how your information has been handled, you can also contact the relevant privacy authority:

• Norway: Datatilsynet — datatilsynet.no
• Switzerland: FDPIC — edoeb.admin.ch

Cookies

My website may use essential technical storage to make your visit smoother, such as remembering whether you've already seen the opening animation.

If external services, such as Google Fonts, are used, your browser may connect to those providers.

Any additional tracking or analytics will be explained where required.

Photographs on this website

The photographs featured on Maison Noir are shared with the appropriate permissions.

I respect the privacy of everyone I photograph, whether it's a wedding, private session, or commercial project.

If you appear in a photograph and would like to discuss its use or request its removal, please email me at [email protected], and I'll review your request.
