You may unsubscribe from promotional email communications using the unsubscribe link included in those messages. Transactional or service-related communications may still be sent when necessary to administer an existing inquiry, booking, transaction, or service.
Cookies and Website Technologies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate properly, remember preferences, understand website activity, measure traffic, improve user experience, and evaluate advertising performance.
We may use analytics and advertising services provided by companies such as Google or Meta. These services may collect technical or device information through cookies, pixels, or similar technologies.
These technologies may help us understand how visitors interact with our website or whether advertising resulted in visits or inquiries.
We do not provide SMS opt-in information or SMS consent data to advertising providers for their own marketing purposes.
Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or control cookies through browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may affect the functionality of portions of our website.
How We Share Information
We may disclose personal information to companies that provide services on our behalf when reasonably necessary to operate our business or provide services to you.
Examples may include website hosting providers, customer relationship management systems, communications providers, payment processors, contract and electronic-signature providers, scheduling or event-management systems, cloud-storage providers, analytics providers, technical-support providers, and other vendors that help us operate Smiley Photo Booths.
These providers are permitted to use information only as reasonably necessary to perform services for us or as otherwise permitted by law.
We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, regulation, subpoena, court order, legal process, or governmental request; investigate fraud or security incidents; enforce agreements; protect the rights, property, or safety of Smiley Photo Booths, our customers, or others; or complete a business reorganization, merger, acquisition, or transfer where permitted by law.
Again, mobile telephone information and SMS opt-in consent are not shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.
Payments
When you make a payment, payment information may be transmitted directly to a third-party payment processor.
Smiley Photo Booths may receive transaction details such as the amount paid, payment status, transaction identifier, invoice information, billing name, and limited payment-method information necessary to administer your booking.
We do not intentionally store full payment-card numbers unless specifically required and securely handled through an authorized payment provider.
Event Photos and Digital Content
As part of providing photo booth and event services, Smiley Photo Booths may create, receive, process, store, or deliver photographs, videos, GIFs, digital images, designs, and other event-related content.
Such content may be made available through event galleries or other delivery systems associated with the event.
Access to or use of event images may also be governed by the applicable booking agreement, event agreement, gallery terms, or permissions provided by the client or event organizer.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, maintain business and transaction records, respond to inquiries, comply with legal and accounting requirements, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, prevent fraud, and otherwise operate our business.
Different categories of information may be retained for different periods depending on their purpose and applicable legal requirements.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
However, no website, electronic communication, database, or transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Third-Party Websites and Services
Our website may contain links to websites, services, payment pages, galleries, forms, social-media platforms, or other resources operated by third parties.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites or services that we do not control. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of those providers when using their services.
Children’s Privacy
Our website and online booking services are intended primarily for adults responsible for requesting or purchasing event services.
We do not knowingly solicit personal information online directly from children under 13 without appropriate authorization or consent.
Because Smiley Photo Booths provides services at family, school, community, and private events, photographs or event content may include minors. Such content is created as part of services provided to the event client or organizer and is handled in accordance with the applicable event arrangement and our normal service practices.
If you believe a child has submitted personal information to us online without appropriate authorization, please contact us so we can review the matter.
Your Privacy Choices and Rights
Depending on where you live and applicable law, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including requesting access to certain information we maintain about you, asking that inaccurate information be corrected, requesting deletion of certain information, or requesting information about how personal information is used or disclosed.
You may also withdraw consent for certain optional communications.
We may need to verify your identity before completing certain privacy requests. Some information may be retained where permitted or required by law, including information necessary for accounting, fraud prevention, contractual obligations, dispute resolution, or legal compliance.
California Privacy

Where those laws apply to Smiley Photo Booths and to the particular information involved, eligible California residents may request information regarding certain categories of personal information collected, used, disclosed, sold, or shared; request correction or deletion of qualifying personal information; or exercise other rights provided by applicable law.
