​

DS Colours Labs

DS Colour Labs is one of our print processing services. We share your childs images with this provider when you order prints in order to fulfil your orders. Unfortunately we do not have our own printing services so it is necessary for us to use an external provider. If you would like to view this providers privacy policy please visit https://dscolourlabs.co.uk/about/PrivacyPolicy

 

Max Spielmann

Max Spielmann are one of our trusted printing suppliers. We use Max Spielmann to print your order cards after the photo shoot. Order cards are what we use to give you your child’s gallery access information to view your images. They contain a photo of your child and instructions on how to view your images including your gallery link and password. This information will therefore be shared with this provider. If you would like to view Max Spielmann’s privacy policy please visit https://www.tescophoto.com/privacy-policy

 

Shoot Proof

Shoot Proof is our gallery hosting provider. We share your Childs images with Shoot proof in order to create our private gallery where you can view and order your childs photos. If you would like to view Shoot Proof’s privacy policy, this can be found at https://www.shootproof.com/legal/privacy-policy#:~:text=Information%20You%20Provide%20to%20Us,certain%20features%20of%20the%20Services.

Adobe is the provider we use for our photo editing software. We use Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop to edit your childs images before and after purchase. If you would like to view Adobe’s privacy policy this can be found at https://www.adobe.com/uk/privacy/policy.html​

​

Your Nursery 

Physical order forms and prints are shared with your nursery to be handed out to you. There may also be some situations where it is necessary for us to share digital versions of these items with your Nursery via email. This could be either to varify the identity of a Child or to distribute order forms or images to you in a more time effective maner.  If you would like to see your Nurseries privacy policy please get in touch with your Nursery directly to find out how to do this.
