Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions

Dynamic Muse Privacy Policy

 

We are dedicated on protecting your privacy and using any personal information you provide responsibly. We believe that it is important for you to understand the type of information we collect from you, how it is used, and who will have access to that information. This policy will be updated regularly, so kindly check this page for future updates.

In case you disagree with this policy, you have the choice to refrain from using our products, services, or any part of our business. 

If you have any inquiries or concerns about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at [email protected].

Information you provide directly to dynamic muse in our role as a “data controller,” including information provided for direct orders, is subject to our privacy policy. Notice regarding transfer of data. Order processing and fulfillment services, and certain platform features utilized by photographers on this website, require that personal data be processed by WordPress in the United States of America, where the necessary computing systems are located. Those services and features would not be available without such processing of personal data in the United States of America. Please be aware that the United States may not provide the same level of protection of personal information as in your country, state, or other jurisdiction of residence or nationality, and when transferred to the United States, your personal information may be accessible by, or otherwise made available to, local government authorities and officials pursuant to judicial and/or administrative orders, decrees, and demands, and/or other domestic laws, statutes, and regulations. You hereby acknowledge and agree that in order to satisfy our contractual obligations and to provide you the services described here, we have to transfer and process your personal information in the United States
of America. 

Notice regarding additional rights. Should you desire to exercise additional rights available to you under applicable laws (e.g., access, erasure, portability) you should first contact the photographer, when it is acting as the data controller. The photographer, as the owner of the website, is the controller for any personal information provided by you except for direct orders, as defined next. WordPress, acting as a processor or service provider on behalf of the photographer, or as a controller of data for direct orders, can be contacted at [email protected] with your specific request. 

Facial recognition. Please note that photographers may elect to make it easier for their customers to identify or sort photographs to their
photo galleries by implementing facial recognition tools dynamic muse makes available through our services. While dynamic muse may host such facial recognition data on its platform on behalf of those photographers to enable Image identification and organization, dynamic muse does not have any independent method to be able to identify or verify any individual based on that facial recognition data. Accordingly, therefore, requests pertaining to the same may have to be resolved by the applicable photographer. Further, you acknowledge and agree that Dynamic Muse parties shall not have any liability to you, and you hereby waive any claims against dynamic muse parties and covenant not to sue dynamic muse parties, related to such facial recognition data. Notwithstanding the foregoing, dynamic muse has implemented commercially reasonable protocols to safeguard and, when appropriate, to permanently delete or dispose of images and photographs subject to the facial recognition features. More specifically, dynamic muse will delete images subject to the facial recognition features from its custody or control when it has been more than three (3) years since the last interaction by an applicable photographer with dynamic muse. Dynamic muse will disclose and disseminate images subject to the facial recognition features to third parties in accordance with the data sharing and third-party disclosure terms and conditions set forth the agreements (i.e., the terms of service) between Dynamic Muse and the applicable photographer/data controller. Individuals who are residents of, or who otherwise are located in, the state of Illinois (united states), are prohibited from using, or being subject to, dynamic muse facial recognition features.

  1. Buying photos 

Depending on preferences made available by the Photographer, you may have the option of placing orders to be fulfilled by the Photographer (“Photographer Orders”) or by Dynamic Muse and its affiliates and suppliers (“Direct Orders”). You agree that the Photographer shall be solely responsible for all aspects of Photographer Orders, including but not limited to processing and fulfillment, and that Dynamic Muse shall not have any liability to you for the same. You agree that you shall be responsible for reviewing, approving, and taking all other necessary steps to place Photographer Orders and Direct Orders, and that neither Photographers nor Dynamic Muse will have any liability to you for errors you make when placing orders. You are responsible for paying the Photographer for any Photographer Orders and for any applicable taxes. For Direct Orders, payments are processed on behalf of the Photographer. By placing an order you authorize Dynamic Muse and/or its payment processors to charge your credit card the purchase price for the order, plus applicable taxes. To the extent permissible by law, risk of loss for all items purchased by you through the website passes to you upon Dynamic Muse’s or the Photographer’s delivery to a shipping carrier.
