Privacy Policy

1. Data Controller Information The entity responsible for processing personal data collected via this website (tkmphoto.com) is:

• Trade Name: TKM Photo
• Person in Charge: Tarik Kaan Muslu
• Location: Madrid, Spain
• Email: info@tkmphoto.com
• Website:https://tkmphoto.com

2. Personal Data We Collect and Why

TKM Photo collects data through this website for the following limited purposes:

a) Contact Forms When you contact us through the form on the Contact page, we collect the information you submit: your name, your email address and a project summary (required), and, if you choose to provide them, your company, your phone number, the project type, the project location and the target date. The form is processed by Netlify Forms, the form service of our hosting provider Netlify, and the submission is forwarded to us by email. The form includes a hidden honeypot field that filters automated spam; this technique collects no data about you, and no CAPTCHA service is used. We use this information solely to respond to your enquiry, based on our legitimate interest in handling requests about our services. It is not used for marketing and is not shared with third parties beyond the processors listed in this policy.

b) Cookies and Analytics Our website uses cookies to enhance user experience, analyze site traffic, and optimize future advertising campaigns.

• Functional Cookies: Necessary for the site to work correctly. This site sets none: your answer to the cookie banner is kept in your browser's local storage, which is never sent to a server.
• Statistics Cookies (Google Analytics): We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site (e.g., which pages are popular). IP addresses are not stored by Google Analytics 4.
• Advertising Cookies (Google Ads): When we run Google Ads campaigns, cookies will be used to measure campaign effectiveness (conversion tracking) and potentially for remarketing.

In accordance with Spanish and EU law (GDPR), non-functional cookies (Statistics and Advertising) are not activated until you provide explicit consent via our cookie banner. Statistics and Advertising can be accepted or refused separately, and refusing is a single click, exactly like accepting. Until you choose, Google Consent Mode holds every signal at denied and no tag is loaded.

c) Embedded Content from Other Websites Posts (Case Studies) on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos from Vimeo or YouTube). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

3. Who We Share Your Data With

TKM Photo does not sell or rent your personal data. Data may only be shared with service providers essential for the site’s operation or due to legal obligation. Our main data processors are:

• Google LLC: For Google Analytics (site analysis) and Google Ads (advertising).
• Netlify, Inc.: Our hosting and infrastructure provider. Netlify serves this website, processes contact form submissions through Netlify Forms and keeps standard server logs that may include your IP address. Netlify is a company based in the United States and may process data on servers located there. Netlify participates in the EU U.S. Data Privacy Framework, and its Data Processing Agreement also incorporates the European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses as a fallback transfer mechanism.
• WhatsApp, Meta Platforms Ireland: Our site links to WhatsApp. If you choose to start a conversation, your phone number and message are processed by Meta under its own privacy policy.

4. How Long We Retain Your Data

• Contact Form Data: Data is retained for a reasonable period (e.g., 2 years) to manage inquiries, unless a legal requirement (like invoicing) necessitates longer retention.
• Analytics Data: Event and user data collected by Google Analytics is retained for 14 months and then deleted.

5. Your Rights Over Your Data (GDPR Rights)

Under GDPR, you have the following rights:

• Access: To request access to the data we hold about you.
• Rectification: To correct any incomplete or inaccurate data.
• Erasure (“Right to be forgotten”): To request the deletion of your data when it is no longer necessary.
• Object: To object to the processing of your data (especially for marketing).
• Withdraw Consent: To withdraw your consent for cookies at any time.

To exercise these rights, please contact us at info@tkmphoto.com.
