Preambel
We hereby inform you about our processing of your personal data and the claims and rights to which you are entitled according to data protection regulations. The exact type of data that is processed and how it is used is determined by the services you have requested or that have been arranged with you.
1. Who is responsible for data processing and who can I contact?
The person responsible is:
Walter Isbell
1560 Saturno Heights Drive
Reno, NV 89523
walter@adwphoto.com
2. What sources and data do we use?
We process the personal data that we receive from you as part of our business relationship. In addition, we process, to the extent necessary for the provision of our services, personal data that we receive from other sources (e.g. the facilities in which we photograph, such as schools and day-care centres) in a legally permissible way (e.g. to execute orders, to fulfil contracts or on the basis of a consent granted by you). We are also permitted to process personal data which we may have obtained from publicly available sources (e.g. debtor directories, press, media) in a legally permissible way. Relevant personal data are personal details and contact details (name, address, telephone number and email address). In addition, this may also include order data or data from the fulfilment of our contractual obligations, such as advertising and sales data, documentation data, data on your use of our tele-media offerings, as well as other data comparable with the aforementioned categories.
3. Why do we process your data (purpose of processing) and on what legal basis?
We process personal data in accordance with the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
3.1. To fulfil contractual obligations (Art. 6 (1) letter. b GDPR)
The processing of personal data is carried out for the provision of the photographic services and the associated sale of captured images and their electronic transmission or production on photo products and delivery to customers, and in particular also to carry out our contracts or pre-contractual measures with you, as well as the execution of your orders. The purposes of data processing are primarily obligations arising from the sales contract in which you enter with us by placing an order in our shop and can include, among other things, reminders of important events. You can find further details about the purpose of data processing in the respective terms and conditions.
3.2. In the context of the balancing of interests (Art. 6 (1) letter f GDPR)
If necessary, we process your data beyond the actual fulfilment of the contract in order to protect our own legitimate interests or those of third parties. For: advertising or market and opinion research, insofar as you have not objected to the use of your data; the enforcement of legal claims and defence in legal disputes; ensuring IT security; prevention and investigation of criminal offences; measures for business management and further development of services and products.
We also process personal data when you contact us through our contact formular. We process any data you include in the formular. These data are needed to process and respond to your inquiry or request. As soon as your inquiry or request has been solved, we delete your data.
Should we be engaged in events where our photographic services have been used to take pictures, we process the personal data obtained there on the basis of the justified interest to fulfil the order given to us and to offer it for purchase. If this is the case, we shall refer to the photographs of the persons present during the event, as well as to a right of objection. Please note that an objection only takes effect in the future. All processing carried out until then remains unaffected.
3.3. On the basis of your consent (Art. 6 (1) letter a GDPR)
If you have given us consent to the processing of personal data for certain purposes (e.g. publication or use of images), the legality of such processing is based on your consent. You may revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. Please note that the revocation only takes effect in the future. Processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected.
3.4. Pursuant to legal requirements (Art. 6 (1) letter c GDPR) or in the public interest (Art. 6 (1) letter e GDPR)
We also process personal data on the basis of legal requirements. For example, we store invoice data (name, address) on the basis of existing legislation, such as the retention obligations.
4. Who gets my data?
In the course of using the online shop, your data will be received by those who require the data to fulfil our contractual and legal obligations. Our processors (Art. 28 GDPR) may also receive data for these purposes. These are companies in the production of photographic products, logistics and telecommunications categories. A data transfer to recipients external to ADW Photo LLC takes place only if legal provisions so permit and you have given your consent or we are authorised to issue such information. Under these conditions, recipients of personal data may be, for example: public bodies and institutions (e.g. supervisory authorities) in the presence of a statutory or official obligation. Other data recipients may be those for which you have given us your consent for the transmission of data or have waived your consent.
5. How long will my data be stored?
Where necessary, we process and store your personal data to the extent necessary to comply with our contractual obligations. In addition, we are subject to various retention and documentation obligations. The time limits for storage and documentation can be two to ten years. Finally, the storage period is also assessed according to the statutory limitation periods, which are usually three years, but can also be up to thirty years in certain cases.
6. Is data transmitted to a third country or to an international organisation?
Data transmission to third countries (states outside the European Economic Area, EEA) takes place only to the extent necessary to fulfil our contractual requirements towards you, if required by law, or if you have given us your consent. We will inform you separately about the details if doing so is required by law.
7. What data privacy rights do you have?
Each person concerned shall have the right to information according to Art. 15 of the GDPR, the right to rectification under Art. 16 GDPR, the right to deletion in accordance with Art. 17 GDPR, the right to restrict the data processing according to Art. 18 GDPR and the right to data transferability under Art. 20 GDPR. In the right to information and the right to deletion, the restrictions under §§ 34 and 35 BDSG apply. In addition, there is a right of appeal to a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR).
8. Is there a duty for me to provide data?
In the context of our business relationship, you must provide only the personal data necessary for the establishment, execution and termination of a business relationship or for which we are legally obliged to collect. Without this data, we will usually have to reject the conclusion of the contract or the execution of the order or will no longer be able to execute an existing contract and may have to terminate. Furthermore, it is necessary for us to request additional data for the provision of paid services, including how to process your desired payment method.
9. Notification of important events
When you register to receive our notifications by email and/or SMS, the data you provide will be used exclusively for this purpose. We log your consent to receive the notification, including your IP address. No further data will be collected. The data will only be used for sending notifications and will be passed on to third parties only for the purpose of delivery. You can revoke your consent to the processing of your personal data and their use for sending notifications at any time. In each notification you will find an applicable link for revocation; in addition you can always send an objection by email to walter@adwphoto.com. Please note that the revocation will only take effect in the future. Processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected.

We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to gather information when you interact with our Services. Some online tracking technologies help us maintain the security of our Services and your account, prevent crashes, fix bugs, save your preferences, and assist with basic site functions.
We also permit third parties and service providers to use online tracking technologies on our Services for analytics and advertising, including to help manage and display advertisements, to tailor advertisements to your interests, or to send abandoned shopping cart reminders (depending on your communication preferences).

No purpose in this notice will require us keeping your personal information for longer than the period of time in which users have an account with us.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
6. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Services. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we may have collected from children under age 18, please contact us at walter@adwphoto.com.

You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the section "HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?" below.
However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal nor, when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

9. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Notice.
California law requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser DNT signals. Because there currently is not an industry or legal standard for recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we do not respond to them at this time.
10. DO UNITED STATES RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?
In Short: If you are a resident of California, you may have the right to request access to and receive details about the personal information we maintain about you and how we have processed it, correct inaccuracies, get a copy of, or delete your personal information.

Under certain US state data protection laws, you can designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. We may deny a request from an authorized agent that does not submit proof that they have been validly authorized to act on your behalf in accordance with applicable laws.
Request Verification
Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine you are the same person about whom we have the information in our system. We will only use personal information provided in your request to verify your identity or authority to make the request. However, if we cannot verify your identity from the information already maintained by us, we may request that you provide additional information for the purposes of verifying your identity and for security or fraud-prevention purposes.
If you submit the request through an authorized agent, we may need to collect additional information to verify your identity before processing your request and the agent will need to provide a written and signed permission from you to submit such request on your behalf.
