Code Of Conduct & Media Use Agreement

By participating in a Hartveil Studios production, all cast, crew, and collaborators agree to the following terms and conditions. These policies are designed to ensure a safe, respectful, and creatively protected working environment for all involved.

1. Behind-the-Scenes Content
Any behind-the-scenes (BTS) photos or videos taken during production are considered private until officially released. You may not post or distribute any BTS content on social media, websites, or public platforms without prior written permission from Hartveil Studios or the Director. This includes stories, reels, TikToks, and any content showing cast, crew, sets, or unreleased material.

2. BTS Distribution by Hartveil Studios
Official BTS content captured during production may be released via social media or other promotional channels. If your personal or business profile is set to public, we will make every effort to tag and credit you appropriately. To assist with this process, please follow and engage with Hartveil Studios on social platforms.

3. Harassment & Behaviour Policy
Hartveil Studios maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward racial, sexual, or verbal harassment. Any form of discrimination, abuse, or threatening behaviour will result in immediate removal from the production and may lead to legal action against the individual or associated business.

4. Safety Compliance
All cast and crew are required to follow the safety guidelines set by the designated Safety Officer or department leads. Non-compliance with safety directions—particularly regarding high-risk environments or equipment—may result in removal from the set and possible legal liability.

5. Confidentiality & Spoilers
You agree not to disclose any plot details, character arcs, visual elements, or unreleased creative content to the public or third parties. Spoilers and leaks compromise the integrity of the work and the experience for future audiences.
