When you're in front of our camera

Your image belongs to you, even when you appear in a video for your employer or a brand. That's why we work like this:

Consent upfrontAnyone recognisable on camera signs a release form beforehand. It states what the footage is used for, where and for how long.
MinorsFor anyone under 18, we always ask a parent or guardian for consent.
Behind the scenesWe only use behind-the-scenes footage on our channels if you and the client agree.
PortfolioWe only show delivered work when it's been agreed with the client.
You can withdrawDon't want to be on camera anymore? Let us know. We'll remove you from new material and from our own channels. What the client has already shared, we discuss together with them.
Raw footageAnything that doesn't make the final cut is never used elsewhere and is deleted after the retention period.

Cookies

Only essential cookies are on by default. The rest only after you agree in the cookie banner. You can change your choice anytime via Cookie settings at the bottom of every page.

Everything about cookies is in our cookie policy.

Who we share it with

Only with parties that help us do our work, and only what they need for it. We make agreements with each of them on confidentiality and security.
