GDPR-Compliant School Photography Software
Provide schools, daycares, and parents with maximum security. German servers, password-protected galleries, and digital DPA sign-off for legal compliance.
Privacy Risks in School Photography
Schools and daycares are extremely sensitive about data protection. As a photographer, you must operate legally:
GDPR violation by hosting children's data outside the EU or on uncertified platforms.
Unauthorized access to sensitive photos if isolated PIN access is not used.
Lack of Data Processing Agreements (DPA / AVV) leads to legal and warning risks.
Tedious manual data cleaning of photos and student lists after the photo day is finished.
