     We rely on the data supplied by our school and club clients as our master document. We rely on the information supplied to be correct. Our practice includes a proofing process whereby our client must review any final works and advise of any corrections before the final works are disclosed/released for supply or purchase. If you find that the information used by us in the final supply of works is still inaccurate you may contact us – brooke@inphotography.nz and we will rectify the error within a reasonable timeframe in any digital works. We cannot guarantee that we will replace any already supplied printed works at our expense. In some cases, the client may be liable for the related costs.

     Information supplied to us may include an unique identifier (UI) assigned to you by your organisation (school). We too assign this UI to your image (as your image filename) for the purpose of supplying your identification image back to the school and to an ID card company (on behalf of your school) for the production of ID cards. When you use our website to review our works the passcode assigned to you may include your UI (with a common prefix) for convenience of your access.
