Photo consent
Memory films are usually full of other people: partners, parents, friends, children. This page explains what you confirm when you send us their photos.
What you confirm when you send photos
- You took the photos yourself, or you have the right to use and share them.
- The adults shown in the photos have agreed to be in your film, or would reasonably expect to be included in a private family keepsake.
- For every child shown (anyone under 18), you are their parent or legal guardian, or you have the permission of a parent or guardian to include them.
- The photos do not include anything listed under "photos we will not use" below.
What we tell you on WhatsApp
When we start your film, our WhatsApp message tells you:
By sending these photos you confirm you have the right to share them, and for any child shown you are their parent or guardian or have their permission. Details: niviz.vercel.app/consent
Photos of children
- We use photos of children only to make the film you ordered, and keep no copy after your film is made, as described in our privacy policy. The only exception: if you reply YES to showing your film on our website, which for a film with children only a parent or guardian may do.
- We never change a child's face or appearance, and we never add a child's name, age or school unless you wrote it.
- Think about where you share the finished film. A film shared publicly can be copied by others.
Photos of someone who has died
Memorial films are welcome. Please make sure the family members closest to the person are comfortable with the film being made and shared.
Photos we will not use
- Sexual or intimate images, or images of anyone without clothes.
- Any image of a child in a sexual, abusive or harmful situation. We report such images where the law requires.
- Photos taken or shared without the right to do so, such as private photos of someone else that you were not meant to have.
- Photos meant to harass, threaten, mock or embarrass someone.
If an order includes photos like these we may refuse it, stop it and delete the photos.
If you appear in someone's film
If you, or a child you are responsible for, appear in a film made by someone else and you want your image removed from what we hold, message the founder directly on WhatsApp at +972 52 379 1694 or email maozch@gmail.com. We will delete what we still hold. We cannot delete copies that the customer has already downloaded or shared.
