We at byGrace Photography take your privacy seriously.
Education, your rights, our policy.
Although the law provides for photography in all public places (defined as open to the public and wherein privacy is not reasonably expected) and that all editorial (newsworthy) photography can be freely published, televised, printed in newspapers and magazines alike without the knowledge or consent of the participants, this is not the policy of byGrace Photography.
At no time will byGrace Photography print, publish, make available or sell your name, email address or any personally identifyable information (other than badging found on jerseys, team jackets, or other publically displayed information outside of our control, and therein only within the confines of this web service) without prior written consent in the form of a model release. In the event a photograph is deemed newsworthy and considered for publication, attempts will be made to contact the subject(s) and gain permission. If permission is not given, the image will not be used. End of story.
Photographs found on the byGrace Photography website are for private personal use only, intended soley for participants, attendees, competitors, clubs, teams and organizations, friends and family members. Images may not be used for advertising or promotion (including our own) in any form or fashion without the prior written consent of both the photographer and a signed model release by the subject. byGrace Photography retains ownership and copyright of any and all images.
If for any reason, during the shooting of an event or while visiting this website, you or a family member are not comfortable being photographed, or having photos made available through this web service, please feel free to inform the photographer at the event, or send e-mail to Calvin@bygracephotography.com. At your discretion photos will either not be taken, placed in a private password protected gallery, or removed entirely. Please be sure to include the gallery name and filename(s) or image number(s) in any correspondance. We at byGrace Photography provide a cost effective predominately free service. If photographs are not wanted or desired we would prefer to be notified in advance as many many hours of post processing go into each event. An unwanted photo is an unlikely sale and your satisfaction and comfort are of utmost importance.
