What we process, and why

We only collect what we need to reply to enquiries, quote for and deliver shoots, and send news to people who signed up and confirmed. Our Privacy Notice gives the full details, including how long we keep information.

Photographs of people

We ask for permission before publishing a photo in which people can be recognised, and we will take a photo down if you ask us to.

Direct marketing

We only send our newsletter to people who have signed up and confirmed through the link we email them. You can unsubscribe at any time by replying to a newsletter or emailing us.

Sharing information

We don't sell personal information. A few service providers handle it for us, as our Privacy Notice explains: our web host, Cloudflare for spam checks, and Google, whose Gmail app we use to read our mailbox. Some of them may process it outside South Africa.

Keeping it safe

Our Security Statement explains how the website and forms are protected. If we have reasonable grounds to believe someone has accessed your personal information without permission, we will notify you and the Information Regulator as POPIA requires.

Children

We only publish a photo of a child with the permission of a parent or guardian.

Your rights

You may ask what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or object to how we use it. Email info@capturedbyyu.co.za Copy. Our PAIA Manual explains how to request records.

If you are unhappy with how we handle your information, you can complain to the Information Regulator.
