Privacy Policy - the basics
A Privacy Policy describes how a website collects, uses, stores and protects the personal information of its visitors and customers. It also explains the rights individuals have regarding their personal data and how they can exercise those rights.
At TEN-TŌ Photography, we respect your privacy and aim to handle your personal information responsibly, transparently and only for legitimate purposes.

When you contact us through the website, we may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide, including your first and last name, email address, phone number, the type of service you are interested in, your country, city or project location, preferred date and details about your project.
The website's contact form is designed to help us understand your requirements and respond to your enquiry.
When you browse the website, Wix and integrated services may also collect technical information, such as your IP address, browser and device information, website usage data and information stored through cookies or similar technologies. The exact information collected will be reviewed after the website is published.
How do we use your information?
The information you provide may be used to respond to enquiries, discuss photography and video projects, prepare quotations, arrange services, communicate about bookings and collaborations, maintain the website and ensure its security.
We do not sell your personal data or use it for direct marketing without an appropriate legal basis.
The legal basis for processing
Depending on the circumstances and applicable legislation, personal data may be processed based on your consent, the steps necessary to enter into or perform a contract, compliance with legal obligations, or legitimate interests relating to the operation, administration and security of the website.
Where consent is required, particularly for certain cookies and tracking technologies, it will be requested through the website's consent management tool.

Third-party services
The TEN-TŌ Photography website is created and hosted using the Wix platform.
Wix provides the website infrastructure and certain functions, including content display and contact form management. We also use Usercentrics to display the consent banner and manage visitors' cookie preferences.
These providers may process personal data in connection with the services they provide, in accordance with their own privacy policies and applicable contractual and legal obligations.
The exact list of third-party services active on this website will be reviewed after publication.
International data transfers
Some service providers used to operate this website may process or store personal data outside Switzerland or the European Economic Area.
Where personal data is transferred internationally, the transfer must comply with applicable data protection requirements. Depending on the destination country, this may involve an adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses.
Specific information about the providers, destination countries and applicable safeguards will be reviewed once the active services have been verified.
Cookies and similar technologies
This website may use cookies and similar technologies to ensure its proper operation, improve the browsing experience and understand how visitors interact with its content.
These technologies may include essential cookies required for website functionality, functional cookies that remember preferences, analytics cookies used to understand website usage and marketing cookies used for advertising-related purposes, if such services are installed.
You can manage your cookie preferences through the Usercentrics consent banner. Technologies requiring consent should not be activated before the relevant consent has been given.
The specific cookies and technologies active on this website will be identified and added to this policy after the website has been published and scanned.
How long do we keep your information?
Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, manage enquiries and collaborations, or comply with applicable legal obligations.
Contact form submissions and related correspondence may be kept for as long as necessary to handle the enquiry and any relevant follow-up.
When the information is no longer required, it will be deleted or anonymised unless there is a legal reason to retain it for a longer period.
Your privacy rights
Depending on the applicable legislation, you may have the right to request access to your personal data, correct inaccurate information, request deletion where legally possible, restrict certain processing activities, object to certain processing and withdraw your consent where processing is based on consent.
Where the GDPR applies, you may also have the right to data portability and the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
In Switzerland, you may contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).
