Trust & Security

Your work, handled with care

Brands and creators send us unreleased product launches, exclusive interviews, and personal footage every day. Here's exactly how we treat it — IP, NDAs, files, payments, and the team that touches it.

NDA by default

We treat all unreleased client work as confidential — whether or not a document is signed. We have a standard mutual NDA we'll sign at no charge for any client that requests one. Custom client NDAs are reviewed case-by-case.

  • Standard mutual NDA on request, no charge
  • Custom NDAs reviewed case-by-case
  • NDA-by-default standards apply with or without paperwork

What you own

On final payment, you own the delivered files — MP4, MOV, JPEG, PNG, or whatever final format we shipped. Source files (Premiere/After Effects/DaVinci projects, layered designs) are an optional paid add-on that has to be requested upfront before the project starts.

  • You own all final deliverables (MP4, MOV, JPEG, PNG)
  • Source files = paid add-on, requested at quoting
  • We retain source files for 24 months for revisions
  • Optional portfolio non-disclosure carve-out

Encrypted file handling

All client files are stored in encrypted cloud storage with role-based access. Only your assigned project team can see your assets — never the broader team or third parties.

  • Encryption in transit and at rest
  • Role-based access scoped to your project
  • Files retained for 24 months, then deleted

Vetted team only

We don't outsource. Every project runs through senior editors and designers who work with us directly — no marketplaces, no anonymous freelancers, no juniors learning on your footage.

  • Senior-only delivery team
  • Background-checked and contracted
  • Full chain of custody on every asset

Secure payments

We accept Stripe, credit card, PayPal, ACH, and wire transfer. Card data never touches our servers — payments are processed by PCI-compliant providers.

  • PCI-compliant payment processors
  • Net-15 terms available for retainer clients
  • Invoices, contracts, and receipts on file

Data minimization

We collect only what we need to deliver your project. No tracking pixels, no third-party advertising trackers, no behavioral profiling — see our Privacy Policy for the full picture.

  • No third-party trackers on this site
  • Project data deleted on request
  • GDPR / CCPA / UK GDPR compliant

Frequently asked

Do you sign NDAs?

Yes. We have a standard mutual NDA we'll sign at no charge for any client that requests one — usually within one business day. Custom client NDAs are reviewed case-by-case (we may decline overly burdensome ones, but we'll always tell you upfront so you can decide whether to use ours instead). Either way, we operate under NDA-by-default standards even when no document is signed: we never share unreleased client work without permission.

Who owns the final video?

You do. On final payment, you own all final delivered files — MP4, MOV, JPEG, PNG, etc. Source files (Premiere/After Effects/DaVinci project files, layered designs) are an optional paid add-on that has to be requested before the project starts and confirmed at quoting. We retain source files internally for 24 months so revisions stay possible.

How are my files stored?

All client files are stored in encrypted cloud storage with role-based access. Only your assigned project team can access your files. Files are retained for 24 months after delivery and deleted on request earlier.

Can I add a portfolio carve-out so my work isn't shown publicly?

Yes. By default we may display delivered work in our portfolio. If you want a non-disclosure carve-out, just say so in writing and we will not publish or reference the project externally.
