PRIVACY POLICY
1. Information We Collect
Depending on how you interact with Cinevera, we may collect information such as your name, email address, telephone number, billing information, event or session details, requested photography services, messages and inquiries, and other information you voluntarily provide.
When you use our website, certain technical information may also be collected automatically, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, referring pages, and interactions with our website.

2. Photography and Media
When you hire Cinevera for photography services, we may create, receive, process, store, and deliver photographs and other media associated with your session or event.
Any use of identifiable client photographs for our portfolio, website, advertising, social media, promotional materials, or other public-facing purposes will be governed by the applicable photography agreement, model release, consent, or other authorization.
3. How We Use Information
We may use personal information to provide and manage photography services, respond to inquiries, schedule sessions, process bookings and payments, communicate about projects, deliver photographs, maintain business records, improve our website and services, prevent fraud or misuse, comply with legal obligations, and send marketing communications where permitted.

Your payment provider may process information according to its own privacy policy.
5. Cookies and Analytics
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies for essential website functionality, analytics, preferences, security, and, where applicable, advertising.
Third-party website, analytics, scheduling, payment, or advertising providers may collect information when you interact with our website.

We may disclose information to service providers that help us operate Cinevera, including website hosting providers, payment processors, booking and scheduling providers, cloud storage providers, photo-gallery and delivery platforms, email providers, analytics providers, professional advisers, and other contractors performing services on our behalf.
We may also disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect our rights, customers, business, or others.
Cinevera does not sell personal information for money.
If Cinevera uses advertising technologies that constitute “selling” or “sharing” under California privacy law, this Policy and our website privacy controls should be updated accordingly.

2. Photography Services
Information displayed on the website describes services that Cinevera may offer, including portrait, wedding, engagement, family, newborn, maternity, graduation, event, corporate, branding, real-estate, product, food, automotive, lifestyle, and other photography services.
Availability, pricing, locations, deliverables, editing, turnaround times, deposits, cancellation terms, rescheduling terms, image rights, and other project-specific conditions may be established in a separate booking confirmation or photography agreement.
If a separate signed agreement conflicts with these general website Terms regarding a booked photography service, the applicable signed agreement will control to the extent of that conflict.
3. Pricing and Availability
Prices, packages, promotions, and service availability displayed on the website may change.
A photography session is not considered confirmed merely because a visitor submits an inquiry. Booking confirmation will be governed by the applicable booking process or client agreement.
4. Deposits, Cancellations and Rescheduling
Any deposits, retainers, cancellation charges, refunds, rescheduling rules, or no-show policies applicable to a photography session will be disclosed through the applicable booking process or client agreement.

Unless otherwise stated, the Cinevera website and its original content—including photographs, graphics, branding, logos, designs, text, and other materials—are owned by or licensed to Cinevera and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.
You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, sell, publish, commercially exploit, or publicly display Cinevera content without appropriate authorization.
6. Client Photographs
Ownership, licenses, personal-use permissions, commercial-use permissions, printing rights, portfolio rights, and publication rights relating to photographs created during a client engagement will be governed by the applicable photography agreement and any releases.
Purchasing photography services does not automatically transfer copyright unless expressly agreed in writing.

Cinevera will use identifiable client photographs in portfolios, websites, social media, advertisements, competitions, publications, or promotional materials only as permitted by the applicable agreement, release, consent, or law.
8. Third-Party Services

Those third parties operate under their own terms and privacy practices. Cinevera is not responsible for third-party websites or services except as required by applicable law.

We strive to keep website information accurate and current, but we do not guarantee that all website content will always be complete, current, or error-free.
Website content is provided for general informational purposes and may be changed without notice.
