CLIENTS AND WEDDING GUESTS CAPTURED IN PHOTOS
All images published on www.italianseasidewedding.com pages and blog have been provided by professional photographers. Mentioned Photographers are collaborators and partners of Italian Seaside Wedding Team. Images have been provided with the consent guaranty and authorization for publishing previously got from above mentioned photographers.
Under GDPR legislation, a photograph may in some instances constitute a form of personal data where they can be processed to allow “the unique identification or authentication of a natural person”. Italian Seaside Wedding will never show an individual as a means of unique identification or authentication unless consensually contracted to do so. Guests at weddings appear in photos published by Italian Seaside Wedding as a part of the visual recording of the event in photos. Guests captured in portraits or in group photos do so as part of the event and their rights are protected by Italian Seaside Wedding as detailed in this privacy policy.
In terms of explicit GDPR compliance, wedding clients and guests are photographed within the parameters of GDPR legislation on the basis of ‘legitimate interests’. The taking of photographs of wedding guests when viewed as a form of processing personal data is necessary for the legitimate interests of Italian Seaside Wedding as a wedding business unless there is a good reason to protect a given individual’s personal data which overrides those legitimate interests.
Operating within the parameters of legitimate interests as laid out in GDPR legislation, the disproportionate effort involved in providing privacy policy information to all wedding guests at the event and the degree to which it would distract us from performing our job renders it infeasible to do. Wedding clients are therefore requested in their contract to direct their guests to read this privacy policy in advance of the event and to advise them to contact us in advance with any concerns around the processing of their personal data, namely being photographed.
WITHDRAWAL OF CONSENT
Anyone appearing in Italian Seaside Wedding pages or blog, whether a client or wedding guest, and whether past or current may withdraw consent for a photograph in which they appear to be displayed. The process for this is to email Italian Seaside Wedding at team@italianseasidewedding.com specifying the photo in question. Pursuant to the request, Italian Seaside Wedding will then remove the photo from online display wheresoever it appears.
SOCIAL MEDIA POLICY & USAGE
We adopt a safe and responsible Social Media Policy. While we may have official profiles on social media platforms users are advised to verify the authenticity of such profiles before engaging with, or sharing information with such profiles. We will never ask for personal details on social media platforms. Users are advised to conduct themselves appropriately when engaging with us on social media.
DISPLAY OF IMAGES
