Privacy & Reference Image Security Policy

When you upload photographs of yourself, your family, children, or pets, those images are accessed exclusively by the primary artist for the singular purpose of composing and painting your commissioned artwork.

We guarantee that client reference photographs are never sold, rented, shared with third parties, or displayed in our public portfolio without your explicit written consent.

We firmly respect human artistic craft and personal privacy. Your uploaded photographs and personal notes are never used to train, fine-tune, or feed any machine learning, generative AI, or facial recognition models.

To process your commission consultation and deliver your physical painting, we collect:

• Contact details (Name, email address, phone number).
• Shipping address for insured national courier delivery.
• Artwork configuration preferences (medium, size, style, and special notes).
• Encrypted transaction references provided by our payment gateway (Razorpay). We do not collect, view, or store raw credit/debit card numbers.

4. Data Retention & Erasure Requests

Reference photos and finished artwork records are retained in our secure atelier archive so that patrons can order matching frames or request additional prints in the future. You may at any time request the permanent deletion of your reference photographs by writing to privacy@yourartiststudio.com.
