Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

Pictures and Promises is a makeup and hair team based in Tbilisi, Georgia. For data-protection questions about this website, you can contact us at Ppmua.contact@gmail.com.

2. Information we may process

When you visit the website, our hosting and security services may process technical information such as your IP address, browser or device information, request details, timestamps, and security logs.

If you contact us by email, phone, Instagram, or another linked service, we process the information you choose to provide so we can respond to your inquiry and manage a possible booking or working relationship.

The private admin area also processes authorized administrator account information, authentication sessions, IP address and user agent information, uploaded portfolio content, and security or audit records needed to operate and protect the website.

3. Why we use information

We process information only where reasonably necessary to:

• operate, maintain, and secure the website;
• prevent abuse, unauthorized access, and fraud;
• respond to inquiries and arrange services or productions;
• maintain the portfolio and private administration system; and
• comply with applicable legal obligations.

Depending on the circumstances, processing may be based on our legitimate interests in operating and securing the website, steps taken at your request before entering into a contract, performance of a contract, consent where required, or compliance with law.

4. Cookies and similar technologies

The public portfolio does not currently use advertising or analytics cookies. The private admin area uses strictly necessary authentication and session technologies so authorized users can log in securely.

Embedded video providers may use their own cookies, local storage, or similar technologies when their content is loaded. Their use of data is governed by their own privacy policies.

5. Service providers and external content

We use Netlify to host and operate parts of the website, including infrastructure used for deployment, storage, and database services. Technical data may therefore be processed by Netlify as needed to provide those services.

Portfolio pages may contain embedded videos from YouTube or Vimeo and links to services such as Instagram or IMDb. When you load or open third-party content, those providers may receive information about your visit according to their own terms and privacy notices.

6. Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including security, administration, responding to inquiries, maintaining business records, and meeting legal obligations. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the service provider involved.

7. Sharing and international processing

We do not sell personal data. Information may be shared with service providers where necessary to operate the website or with authorities where required by law. Some service providers may process data outside Georgia; where applicable, such processing is handled in accordance with the provider's safeguards and applicable law.

8. Your privacy rights

Depending on the law that applies to you, you may have rights to request access to personal data we hold about you and to request correction, deletion, restriction, or other action provided by applicable data-protection law. You may also object to certain processing or withdraw consent where processing relies on consent.

To make a privacy request, email Ppmua.contact@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.

9. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect the website and personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, loss, or misuse. No internet service can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

10. Children

This website is a professional portfolio and is not designed to collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal data through one of our contact channels, please contact us so we can review the situation.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when the website, our services, or legal requirements change. The date at the top of this page shows when this notice was last updated.
