Third-Party Service Providers. We use third-party services to perform certain functions on our website. For example: hosting the website (AWS CloudFront), displaying maps on the contact form (OpenStreetMap), sending emails, analysing data, providing marketing services and providing search results.
These third-party services and tools may have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use that information for other purposes.

Vlada Photography will send you an email or post a prominent notice on our platform before your information becomes subject to another privacy policy and the transfer and handling of your private information will comply with all applicable requirements.
Protection of Vlada Photography and others. We release personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce or apply our Terms and conditions and other agreements, or protect the rights, property, or safety of Vlada Photography, our users or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
