Privacy
Your trust matters to us. This explains what we collect, why, and how we keep it safe.
Last updated July 11, 2026
Jesica Allen Studios LLC, doing business as Jesica Allen Photography (“we,” “us,” or “our”), operates jesicaallen.com and provides newborn, maternity, milestone, and family portrait services in Lodi, California and the surrounding Central Valley. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle personal information when you visit our website, contact us, or book a session.
Information we collect
- Information you give us. When you submit our contact form, book a session, or create a client account, we collect details such as your name, email address, phone number, session preferences, and any message you send us.
- Booking & contract details. To arrange a session we collect information needed for your agreement and invoice, including session type, date, and the electronic signature you provide on your contract.
- Payment information. Session-fee payments are processed by Stripe. Your full card number is entered directly with Stripe and is not stored on our servers. We retain only transaction records (amount, date, and status) needed for accounting.
- Usage information. Like most websites, we may automatically receive standard log data (browser type, pages visited, and general location) to keep the site secure and working well.
How we use your information
- To respond to your inquiries and provide the services you request.
- To prepare contracts, schedule sessions, and deliver your images.
- To process session-fee payments and maintain accurate records.
- To send booking confirmations, reminders, and account emails.
- To protect our website and prevent fraud or abuse.
How your information is shared
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with trusted service providers who help us operate, and only as needed to provide our services:
- Stripe — invoicing and payment processing.
- Supabase — secure database and account hosting.
- Postmark — sending transactional email.
- Vercel — website hosting.
- Mapbox — address autocomplete on our booking form. When you type an address, what you type is sent to Mapbox to return matching suggestions.
Address search on our booking form is powered by © Mapbox and © OpenStreetMap.
We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect our rights, safety, or property.
Your photos
Portrait sessions often feature children, always photographed with the consent of a parent or guardian. Any use of your images for portfolio, print, or marketing purposes is governed by the permissions in your session agreement, and you may withdraw that permission by contacting us.
Data retention
We keep personal information only as long as needed to provide our services and to meet legal, tax, and accounting obligations, after which it is deleted or anonymized.
Your choices & rights
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and you may opt out of non-essential emails at any time. To make a request, email us at info@jesicaallen.com. We will respond within a reasonable time.
Security
We use industry-standard safeguards — including encryption in transit, access controls, and reputable payment processing — to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, but we work to keep your data protected.
Children's privacy
Our website is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. Information about a child in connection with a session is always provided by a parent or guardian.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Significant changes will be noted on this page.
