Privacy Policy
Last updated:
This policy explains how Nightshot Media (“Nightshot Media,” “we,” “us”), a business based in Massachusetts, United States, handles personal information in connection with this website.
1. What this website does
This website is a portfolio of our multicam video work. As currently built, it has no user accounts, no online payments, no newsletter sign-up, no comments, no file uploads, and no analytics, advertising or tracking tools. Videos are hosted by Vimeo and load only after you choose to play them.
2. Information we collect
Information you send us
If you email us, or use the Contact or Privacy Request form, we receive the information you include: typically your name, email address, and the content of your message (for example event details). The forms on this site do not transmit data to our servers. They open your own email app with a message addressed to contact@nightshot.media, and the message reaches us only if you send it.
Automatically collected information
Like most websites, the company that hosts this site, Namecheap, may process technical data such as your IP address, browser and device type, pages requested and timestamps in server logs, to deliver and secure the site. We do not run our own analytics. See Namecheap’s privacy policy.
Third-party video player (Vimeo)
When you press play on a video, your browser loads Vimeo’s player from Vimeo’s servers. Vimeo may receive your IP address, browser and device information and the page you are on, and may set cookies or similar technologies. We ask Vimeo to treat your visit as “do not track” where its player supports that, but Vimeo controls what it collects. See Vimeo’s Privacy Policy. Before you have allowed it, we show a notice and Vimeo’s player does not load.
Information stored on your device
The site stores one small item in your browser’s local storage to remember your cookie/third-party-content choice. See the Cookie Policy.
Accounts and payments
We do not currently offer accounts and do not process payments through this website. Any quote, booking or payment for our services is arranged directly with you outside this website.
3. How we use information
- To respond to inquiries and provide quotes or services you request.
- To operate, secure and maintain the website.
- To remember your cookie preferences.
- To handle privacy requests and comply with legal obligations.
- To protect our rights and prevent misuse or fraud.
If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, our legal bases are generally: responding to your request or steps before entering a contract; our legitimate interests in running and securing the site and our business; your consent (for optional third-party video content, which you can withdraw); and legal obligations.
4. Service providers and sharing
We share information only as needed with providers that help us operate: our email service provider, our hosting provider (Namecheap), and Vimeo (only if you play a video). We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with a business sale or reorganization.
We do not sell or rent personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
5. Retention
We currently keep inquiry emails indefinitely and do not set an automatic deletion date. We will delete or correct them sooner if you ask (see “Your privacy rights” below) or if the law requires. Your cookie preference is stored on your device until it expires after 12 months or you clear your browser storage.
6. Security
We use reasonable technical measures, such as limiting which third-party content the site is allowed to load. No website or email system is completely secure, so please avoid sending sensitive information (such as payment card or government ID numbers) through the contact form or by email.
7. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to know what personal information we hold about you, access and correct it, request deletion, receive a copy, object to or restrict certain processing, withdraw consent, and not be discriminated against for exercising your rights. We do not sell personal information, so there is nothing to opt out of in that respect.
To make a request, use our Privacy Request page or email contact@nightshot.media. We may ask you to confirm your identity (usually by replying from the email address you used) before acting on a request, and will respond within the time required by applicable law. You may use an authorized agent where the law allows. If you are in the EEA/UK, you may also contact your local data protection authority.
8. Cookie preferences
You can change your choice at any time using (also in the footer of every page).
9. Marketing communications
We do not run a newsletter or send marketing email through this website. Replies to your inquiries are not marketing. If we later send promotional email, we will do so only as the law allows and every such message will include a way to opt out.
10. Children’s privacy
This website and our services are not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 where local law sets a higher age), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
11. International visitors
We operate from Massachusetts, United States. If you visit from elsewhere, your information may be processed in the United States or other countries where our providers operate, which may have different data protection laws.
12. Links to other sites
This site links to or embeds services such as Vimeo. We are not responsible for their privacy practices.
13. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the website or the law changes. The “Last updated” date above shows the current version.
