Privacy Policy

Deadass Cinema ("we," "us") makes music videos in New York City. This policy explains what information we collect through this website and how we use it. Short version: we only collect what you give us to plan your video, we don't track you around the web, and we don't sell anything about you.

What we collect

• Your answers to the video plan questions. When you use our plan builder (the "Book" buttons), we save each answer as you tap it: what you're making, your sound, where you are in your career, your release timing, your budget range, what matters most to you, what went wrong with past videos, and who signs off. Answers are stored with a random session ID and aren't connected to you unless you give us your contact details.
• Your contact details. Your name, email, phone number and, if you add it, your Instagram handle, when you submit them to see your plan.
• Where you came from. If you arrived from one of our own links or ads, we record that link's tag (for example "instagram") so we know which of our posts work.
• Whether you clicked to book. We note if you click the booking button on your plan page.
• Basic technical data. Our hosting provider processes standard technical information (such as IP address and browser type) to deliver the site and protect it from abuse. We keep only a one-way scrambled (hashed) form of your IP address, for a short time, to stop spam. We can't turn it back into your IP address and we don't use it to identify you.
• Messages you send us by email or Instagram.

What we don't do

• No advertising pixels, analytics services or tracking scripts on this website, and no cookies. The plan builder remembers your progress in your browser's session storage, which clears when you close the tab.
• No third-party fonts or scripts. Everything loads from our own domain.
• We don't sell or rent your information, or share it for advertising.

If we ever add analytics or advertising tools, we will update this policy first and give you any choices the law requires.

How we use your information

To show you the video plan that fits your answers, contact you about your project, quote and schedule it, prepare and sign your project agreement, invoice and take payment, and deliver your video. We also look at answers in aggregate (for example, which questions people stop at) to improve the plan builder.

Text messages

We only text you if you tick the box that says we can. It's optional and not required to see your plan. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to any text to opt out, or email us.

Who we share it with

Only the service providers we need to run the site and do the work: our hosting and database provider (Cloudflare), our email provider, e-signature service and payment provider. We also share information if the law requires it.

How long we keep it

Unfinished plan-builder answers with no contact details are deleted after 90 days. Leads who don't book are deleted after 2 years. Project records are kept as long as we need them for your project and for our business, tax and legal records.

Your choices

You can ask us to show you, correct or delete the information we hold about you. Email book@deadasscinema.com and we will respond within 30 days.

Security

This site is served only over encrypted HTTPS and uses strict browser security policies. Leads are stored in a private database that only we can access, behind a password.

Kids

This site is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their information. If you're under 18, a parent or guardian needs to be involved before we sign a project agreement.

Changes and contact

If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top. Questions: book@deadasscinema.com.
