ST by Ayssa will only display or publish photographs of custom Rosaries containing customer-provided photos with the customer's express authorization. We will never post or share a customer's photograph without permission.

When authorization is given, photographs of the finished Rosary may be displayed on our website, social media, portfolio, or other ST by Ayssa marketing materials to showcase our handmade work.

Customers may choose not to authorize the use of their photographs, and doing so will not affect their ability to place an order or request a custom Rosary.

If you previously authorized the use of a photograph and would like to withdraw that authorization, please contact us at contact@stbyayssa.com, and we will make reasonable efforts to remove the photograph from our website and marketing materials.
