We may need to retain some information for legal, transactional, archival, accounting, or legitimate business reasons even after a request is made.


Children’s Privacy

Our website is not intended for children under the age of 13 to use independently for submitting personal information online.

Because our services may involve high school seniors, youth sports, school programs, and family-related photography, inquiries may sometimes be submitted by parents, guardians, schools, teams, or authorized adults on behalf of minors.

We do not knowingly collect personal information online directly from children under 13 without appropriate consent where required. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information to us inappropriately, please contact us so we can review and address the situation.


Rights Under Applicable Privacy Laws

Depending on where you live, you may have privacy rights under applicable law, which may include the right to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or additional information about certain personal information we hold about you.

You may also have the right to request information about categories of information collected, categories of sources, business purposes for use, and categories of third parties with whom information is shared, subject to legal exceptions and verification requirements.

If you would like to make a privacy related request, please contact us using the contact information listed in this Privacy Policy. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

We will consider and respond to requests as required by applicable law.


Do Not Track

Some web browsers may offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not always a consistent industry standard for responding to these signals across all services and technologies, our website may not respond to all Do Not Track requests in a uniform way.

You may still be able to control cookies and some tracking through your browser settings, device settings, or cookie banner options where available.


Third-Party Links

Our website may include links to third-party websites, stores, galleries, social media pages, archives, licensing platforms, or other online services.

Once you leave our website or interact with a third-party service, that third party’s own terms and privacy practices will apply. We are not responsible for the content, security, or privacy practices of third-party websites or services.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites or platforms you use.


Business Transfers

If Alonzo Adams Media is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, asset sale, financing transaction, or transfer of some or all of its business operations, information we hold may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our business, website features, store functions, service providers, legal obligations, or privacy practices.

When we update this Privacy Policy, we will post the revised version on this page and update the Effective Date at the top.
