Terms & Conditions
Last updated: 10 September 2026
These terms govern your use of this website. By browsing it you accept them. If you do not, please stop using the site.
Who we are
Residency is a film production group representing independent directors. Where these terms say “we”, “us” or “our”, they mean Residency. Where they say “you”, they mean anyone using the site.
Using the site
You may view and share the pages here for your own personal or internal business use. You may not:
- copy, republish or redistribute any part of the site commercially without our written permission;
- use the site in a way that interferes with it, or with anyone else’s use of it;
- attempt to gain access to any part of the site, its servers, or any connected system that has not been made available to you;
- scrape, mine or otherwise extract the site’s content by automated means.
We may change, suspend or withdraw any part of the site at any time, and we do not guarantee it will always be available or uninterrupted.
Films, images and other work
Every film, still, showreel and piece of artwork on this site is the property of Residency, the director credited, or the client the work was made for, and is protected by copyright. Nothing on the site grants you a licence to use any of it. If you would like to license or screen a film, please get in touch.
What you send us
If you submit a brief, a showreel, a link or any other material through the contact form, you confirm that it is yours to send and that sending it breaks no one else’s rights. You keep ownership of what you send. You give us permission to read it, store it and circulate it internally so we can respond to you.
We receive a great deal of unsolicited material. Where an idea we develop independently happens to resemble something you have sent us, we are not liable to you for it. Please do not send confidential information through the site.
Links to other sites
Where we link to a site we do not run — a festival, a publication, a director’s own page — the link is there for convenience and is not an endorsement. We are not responsible for the content of those sites.
Our liability
The site is provided as it is. To the fullest extent the law allows, we exclude any warranty about its accuracy, completeness or fitness for a particular purpose, and we are not liable for any loss of profit, business, data or goodwill arising from your use of it. Nothing here limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The version on this page is the one that applies, and the date at the top tells you when it last changed. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept it.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of [jurisdiction], and the courts of [jurisdiction] have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them.

This page is boilerplate and is not legal advice. It should be reviewed by a qualified adviser and the bracketed placeholders completed before the site goes live.
