Privacy Policy

How we collect, use, and protect your information.

Last updated: August 2026

1. Who We Are

Endless Emotions Photography is a professional photography business operated by Sonja, based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. We provide portrait, maternity, family, engagement, and corporate photography services.

For any questions about this policy, contact us at sonja.stvs95@gmail.com.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us, including:

  • Contact form submissions: your name, email address, phone number, preferred shoot date, location, service type, and any message you include.
  • Direct communications: messages sent to us via WhatsApp, email, or Instagram.
  • Session bookings: details necessary to plan and deliver your photography session.

We do not use cookies, tracking pixels, or analytics tools that collect personal data at this time. If this changes, this policy will be updated.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to your enquiries and booking requests
  • Plan, schedule, and deliver your photography session
  • Send you your gallery and any related communications
  • Improve our services based on your feedback

We will never sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

4. How Your Data Is Transmitted

When you submit the contact form on this website, your message is composed and opened in WhatsApp on your device. The data is sent directly from your device to our WhatsApp number — it is not stored on our servers. WhatsApp's own privacy policy applies to that transmission.

Direct emails and WhatsApp messages are stored within those platforms in accordance with their respective privacy policies.

5. Photography & Image Rights

Images captured during your session are kept private by default and delivered exclusively to you. We will never publish, share, or use your photos on our website, portfolio, or social media without asking for your permission first.

If you are happy for us to share your images, we will request your consent — this may be a verbal confirmation, a WhatsApp message, or a written agreement. We will only share images once that consent has been given, and you may withdraw it at any time by contacting us.

6. Third-Party Services

This website uses the following third-party services:

  • WhatsApp (Meta): for receiving contact form enquiries and client communications.
  • Instagram (Meta): for portfolio sharing and social media presence.
  • Website hosting: our site is hosted on a third-party platform that may log standard server access data such as IP addresses and browser types for security and performance purposes.

Each of these services operates under its own privacy policy, which we encourage you to review.

7. Data Retention

We retain your contact details and booking information for as long as necessary to deliver our services and comply with legal obligations. If you would like your information removed from our records, please contact us and we will action your request promptly.

8. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Request access to the personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of any inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of your personal data
  • Withdraw consent for portfolio use of your images at any time
  • Lodge a complaint with a relevant data protection authority

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at sonja.stvs95@gmail.com. We will respond within 30 days.

9. Applicable Law

This privacy policy is governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates, including the UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data. Where clients are located in the European Union, we also aim to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page reflects when it was last revised. Continued use of this website following any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
