Privacy Policy

Last updated November 13, 2026.

FilmPhotography.com is a small community site run by one person, Ken Mullinix. This page explains what the site keeps about you and why. The short version: we keep what’s needed to run your account and show your work, we don’t sell it, and you can ask for it to be deleted.

What we collect

Your account. Your username, email address, and password (stored only as a one-way hash, never in readable form). Anything you add to your profile — a real name, location, bio, gear, a portrait, a website link — is optional and is shown publicly on your profile.

What you post. Photographs and the details you attach to them, comments, likes, Darkroom posts, directory reviews and questions, and contest entries. These are public unless the page says otherwise.

Messages. Messages you send through the site’s contact forms, including messages to directory businesses, are stored so they can be delivered and so abuse can be dealt with.

Technical records. When you sign up we record the date, your IP address, and your browser’s user-agent alongside your acceptance of the Terms. The web server keeps ordinary access logs.

Signing in with Google

If you choose “Continue with Google,” Google tells us your name, your email address, whether Google has confirmed that address, and a Google account ID. We use the email address for your account and the ID to recognise you next time. We don’t receive your Google password, and we don’t get access to your Gmail, contacts, Drive, or anything else in your Google account. You can disconnect Google from your Edit Profile page, or remove FilmPhotography.com’s access at myaccount.google.com/permissions.

Cookies and third parties

The site uses a session cookie to keep you logged in. It also uses these outside services, which may set their own cookies:

Email from the site (notifications, password resets, digests) is sent through Google Workspace.

What we don’t do

We don’t sell or rent your personal information, and we don’t share your email address with other members or businesses. Your email address is never shown on your profile.

Your choices

You can edit or remove profile details and your own posts at any time. You can change how often the site emails you on your Edit Profile page, and every broadcast email has an unsubscribe link. To have your account and its data deleted, contact us from the address on your account and it will be done.
