Copyright and permission

Your photos and videos remain yours

Uploading material to Videmory does not transfer its ownership to us.

Last updated 3 September 2026.

Your photos and videos

You retain the copyright in material you created.

You give Videmory only the permission needed to store, copy, analyse, edit, encode and deliver your files as part of the service you requested. This does not give Videmory the right to publish your film, use it in advertising, or send your uploads to a third party to be analysed or used as training data.

When the relevant files are deleted, that permission ends except where limited records must be kept for legal or accounting purposes.

Permission from other people

Everyone who uploads confirms that they have the right to use the material and the permission required from people shown or heard in it.

Videmory does not routinely review private projects and cannot independently confirm those permissions. The person uploading is responsible for deciding whether the material should be included.

The finished film

The purchased film is yours to watch, download, back up and share privately with the people involved in the trip.

Videmory will not publish a customer film or use it as a public example without obtaining appropriate permission first.

Music

Videmory’s soundtracks come from the Free Music Archive — several hundred tracks by more than a hundred artists, all released under a Creative Commons Attribution licence, CC BY 3.0 or 4.0.

Whichever track your film uses is credited on its closing card, and that credit has to stay with the film:

“[Track title]” by [Artist], licensed under CC BY 4.0. [link to the track]

The licence lets the music be used commercially inside a film so long as its author is credited. It does not let anyone pull the music out and share it by itself.

If the film goes up on YouTube, put the credit in the description too.

Reporting material that infringes copyright

Use the contact form and provide:

  • A description of the material and enough information to locate it, including the join code if available
  • A description of the work you own or represent
  • An explanation of why you believe the use is not authorised
  • Your name and contact details
  • A statement that you are making the report in good faith

Do not send the disputed photo or video through the form unless we specifically ask for it.

What happens after a report

We will review the information and may temporarily restrict access while the matter is investigated.

If the complaint is sufficiently clear and valid, we may remove the material, suspend or delete the project, or require a paid film to be rebuilt. The organiser will be told what action was taken where it is appropriate and lawful to do so.

If the organiser believes the report is mistaken, they can contact us with supporting information.

Repeatedly uploading material without the necessary rights may result in loss of access to Videmory.
