The short version
- These terms cover your use of thresholdstudios.ca. Booked projects are governed by the written agreement or proposal we sign together.
- The photos, videos and writing on this site belong to Threshold Studios or our clients. Please don't copy or reuse them without permission.
- Prices, turnaround times and other details on the site are general. Your quote and agreement are what count.
- These terms are governed by the laws of British Columbia.
01Agreement to these terms
These Terms of Service apply to your use of thresholdstudios.ca (the "website"), operated by Threshold Studios ("we", "us", "our") of Vancouver, British Columbia. By using the website, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the website.
02Our services and quotes
The website describes our photography and video services, including event and conference coverage, corporate content, headshots, real estate media and video production. Descriptions, sample turnaround times, package details and other figures on the website are provided for general information and may change without notice.
Any quote we send is an estimate based on the information you provide. It's valid for the period stated on the quote, and may be revised if the scope, schedule, location or other details change.
03Bookings and project agreements
Your date and services are confirmed only once we've both agreed to the scope in writing and any required deposit or retainer has been received. Each project is governed by its own written agreement or accepted proposal, which sets out fees, payment terms, deliverables, timelines, cancellation and rescheduling, usage rights and other details.
If anything in that project agreement conflicts with these terms, the project agreement takes priority.
04Photos, video and content on this site
All content on the website, including photographs, video, text, graphics, logos and design, is owned by Threshold Studios or used with permission from our clients and partners, and is protected by Canadian and international copyright law.
You may view the website for your personal, non-commercial use. You may not copy, download, reproduce, republish, modify, sell or distribute any content from the website, or use it to train artificial intelligence or machine-learning models, without our prior written permission. Sharing a link to a page is always welcome.
Ownership and usage rights for photos and video we create for clients are set out in each project's agreement, not in these terms.
