Privacy Policy
Who we are
OTHR Visuals (“we”, “us”) is a photography studio based in Crete, Greece. We are responsible for your personal data when you use this website (othrvisuals.com). You can reach us at Email us.
What we collect
- Enquiry form: your name, email address, phone number (optional), the service you’re interested in, date and location (optional) and your message.
- Email and WhatsApp: the details you share when you contact us, such as your name, phone number and messages.
- Technical data: basic information such as your IP address and browser type, which our hosting provider processes automatically to deliver and secure the website.
Why we use it
We use your details to reply to your enquiry, prepare quotes and, if you become a client, deliver our services. This relies on taking steps at your request before a contract, and on our legitimate interest in running our business. By ticking the box on the enquiry form you also confirm you’re happy for us to use your details in this way. We may also keep records where the law requires it.
Who we share it with
We don’t sell your data. We use trusted service providers to run the website and handle enquiries:
- Vercel, which hosts the website and provides its visitor statistics.
- Resend, which delivers form messages to our inbox by email.
- Google Workspace, which provides our email.
- WhatsApp (Meta), if you choose to message us there.
- Sanity, which manages the website’s content. It does not receive your form details.
Some of these providers are based outside the European Economic Area, for example in the United States. Where that happens, transfers rely on approved safeguards such as the EU–US Data Privacy Framework or Standard Contractual Clauses.
How long we keep it
We keep enquiry details for as long as needed to respond and, if you become a client, to deliver our services and meet legal and accounting obligations. If your enquiry doesn’t lead to a booking, we delete it after a reasonable period.
Cookies and analytics
This website does not use cookies for analytics or advertising. To see how the site is used, we use Vercel Web Analytics, which stores nothing on your device. It counts page visits and records the page, the site that sent you, and your country, device type, browser and operating system. It does not identify you: visits are counted with a temporary code that is discarded within a day. This relies on our legitimate interest in understanding and improving the website.
Your rights
Under data protection law you can ask us to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal data, to object to how we use it, and to receive a copy of it. Email us at Email us and we’ll help. You also have the right to complain to the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (www.dpa.gr), or to the authority in your own country.
Children
This website is not directed at children, and we don’t knowingly collect their personal data.

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
