• Footage & Assets: Video, photographs, audio recordings, and production materials captured or supplied during a project.
• Technical Data: Browser type, device information, and usage data collected automatically when you visit our site.

3. How We Use Your Information

4. Sharing of Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share your data with trusted service providers who assist in delivering our services — such as video hosting platforms, payment processors, cloud storage, and freelance crew under appropriate confidentiality agreements. We may also disclose information when required by law or to protect our legal rights.

5. Footage & Content Privacy

Your commercial video and image assets may be used for portfolio, website, social media, advertising, and competition purposes unless you have arranged a separate confidentiality or embargo agreement in writing. If your content is confidential, pre-release, or subject to a non-disclosure agreement, please notify us in writing before or at the time of booking so we can ensure it is excluded from public-facing materials.

6. Data Retention

We retain client records, project files, and archived footage for a reasonable period to allow for re-deliveries and future updates. Backup copies of your production footage may be retained securely even after final delivery. You may request deletion of your personal data, subject to our legal and contractual record-keeping obligations.

7. Cookies & Analytics

8. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal and business information against unauthorized access, loss, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Your Rights
