    • User Data: I do not collect or store any user data from the  website.

    • Advertising: I do not advertise, or promote my services on any third party websites or apps.

    • All video and pictures produced using my equipment (and any picture/video files included in attachments to external file sharing links eg: WeTransfer, Dropbox or G-Drive) remain the sole copyright of Northern Heights, unless a copyright buyout is arranged and agreed in writing.

    • Northern Heights may use any and all videos and pictures from your project that I produce, to promote  business services. Footage / images from your project may appear in my showreel, and this website to showcase new projects I have worked on.

    • As the sole copyright holder, Northern Heights may issue a DMCA takedown request should any copyright/payment disputes arise, which may result in your Youtube / Vimeo / Tiktok / Instagram account being terminated. 

    • Copyright buyouts can be arranged.

    • I understand that every one of my clients has varying budgets, which is why I often offer custom pricing structures. Pricing for projects will be confirmed via email, which will need to be signed by a director/business owner.

    • For the majority of projects I offer custom pricing depending on your needs and budget. However I do have standard hourly rates.

    • Video shooting is charged at £250.00 per hour. *unless quoted per job.

    • Aerial video shooting is charged at £5.00 per minute flown *unless quoted per job

    • Video editing is charged at £150.00 per hour.  *unless quoted per job.

    • Photography is charged at £150.00 per hour. *unless quoted per job.

    • Lighting rigs are available upon request at a day rate of £400 per day.

    • Travel costs vary, and will be itemised and added to the invoice. Proof of travel costs can be requested should the need arise.

    • I strongly advise all customers to purchase a hard drive (SSD) to store their videos/pictures on . 

    • Due to the amount of projects I work on, it is not possible to store raw video and photo files for more than 7 calendar days after delivery of the final project render. 

    • Unless you request copies of your files they will be deleted within 7 calendar days after the final project render has been delivered. ( digital/physical delivery of raw files will incur a charge depending on the size and nature of the files ).

    • I use Final Cut Pro / Resolve to edit all videos. I use a range of in-house colour correction and video editing methods to produce videos.  I am not able to share presets or templates with clients. 

    • Up to three revisions can be made per project. For example if you wish for certain shots, images or footage to be re-arranged, extended or removed , you may request for these to be changed up to three times. Any changes after this will be billed at an hourly rate of £75.00

    • If I am required by you to get additional shots after your initial booking, this will be charged at an hourly rate of £200.00 (plus travel costs)

    • Working edits are always sent in 720p.

    • Once a booking has been made, you will receive an email confirmation. This serves as booking confirmation.

    • Should you cancel your booking within 48 hours of the agreed project start date, you will be invoiced for 50% of your booking.

    • For completed shoots, a 50% discount will be applied if full payment is received before the invoice due date. 

    • If full payment is not received by the invoice due date I will email you a reminder requesting payment. Should full payment still not be received, your revised invoice (minus the 50% discount) will be emailed to you, and will reflect a late payment fee of £150.00. 

    • If you fail to pay your invoice I will  pass your invoice on to a debt collection agency. This may affect your credit rating, and may result in a county court judgement / legal action against you to recover the debt.

    • Your invoice will contain an itemised breakdown of the services I have provided, as well as all changes requested by you. 

    • Bank details (account name, sort code and account number) are at the bottom of every invoice, just underneath the "terms and conditions" section. 

    • If I am required to undertake additional work beyond your original quote, I will always notify you via email, and confirm your written approval in writing before proceeding. 

    • As I communicate  every change via email / Whatsapp,  and every change is approved with you/ your team in writing,  in the event that any dispute arises regarding payment I will direct you to the email where you have agreed and instructed me to carry out further work on your project.  I will never make any changes, or proceed with additional work, which may incur additional charges, without you/ your team's written authorisation.

    • Please note I do not accept payments in instalments, cash, crypto currencies or any “alt digital currency wallets”.  If you pay via an alternate currency (such as Dollars or Euros, you will be charged a £75 administration fee .

    • You agree that Northern Heights may use your email for future business communications between ourselves and you. Northern Heights will never share your email/phone number with any third party individuals or companies (unless explicit written consent is granted from you).

    • All communications between Northern Heights and clients are confidential.

    • In the United Kingdom the current maximum height restriction for drones without Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) approval is 120 meters from ground level. I ask all clients to seek prior approval with the CAA prior to any shoot commencing, as I am unable to authorise approval for flights above 120 metres less than fourteen working days before the shoot date. ​

    •  

    • I ask to be provided with all the relevant information from  clients beforehand, with regards to the requirements for the booking. I am required by the CAA to fly drones in direct line of site at all times. If on the day of the shoot it is apparent that there may be a breach of the  CAA rules and guidelines, I will cancel the drone flight. If a drone flight is cancelled due to a potential breach of CAA guidelines, there will be an itemised charge of £250.00 added to your invoice. 

    •  

    • I fly in the "Open" category. Before making a booking ,  I ask that all clients who require aerial photography / videography familiarise themselves with the drone rules and guidelines of the United Kingdom - https://www.caa.co.uk/drones/rules-and-categories-of-drone-flying/introduction-to-drone-flying-and-the-uk-rules/
