Terms & Conditions

Built for photographers. We protect your work, your business, and your privacy—always.

Welcome to StudioLedger (the "Service"). These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Service, including our website, mobile application(s), and any other tools, software, APIs, or functionality provided by StudioLedger.

By using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

1. Ownership of the Service

All technology, source code, design, text, layouts, branding, and features of the StudioLedger Service are the exclusive property of StudioLedger. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service in accordance with these Terms. You may not reproduce, reverse-engineer, or distribute any part of the Service without express written permission.

2. Your Content & Data

You retain full ownership of all content and data you upload or connect to StudioLedger. This includes:

  • Photographs and media
  • Client lists and contact information
  • Calendar data
  • Emails
  • Notes or transcripts from meetings
  • Contracts, invoices, and financial data

StudioLedger does not claim, license, or use any of your content for its own purposes unless you explicitly authorize it (e.g., by sharing a gallery or licensing media to a client using built-in tools).

We do not:

  • Sell or license your content or data to third parties
  • Use your content for marketing, training AI models, or internal analytics
  • Access your data beyond what's necessary to deliver the Service

Your content remains private and secure. Always.

3. Integrated Services

StudioLedger may offer optional integrations with third-party services, such as:

  • Email and calendar providers (e.g., Gmail, Outlook, Apple Calendar)
  • Zoom or video conferencing tools for automatic transcription
  • Cloud storage providers
  • Payment processors (e.g., Stripe)

When you authorize these connections, we only access the data necessary to deliver the requested functionality (e.g., syncing events, retrieving transcripts, attaching emails to projects). You may revoke these integrations at any time.

We never use this connected data for our own purposes or share it with anyone outside of delivering the core Service to you.

4. Confidentiality

StudioLedger treats all user content, including client communications, schedules, and files, as confidential. Access to your data is strictly limited to secure, logged, and permissioned actions necessary to operate the Service. No employee or contractor may view your data without explicit cause related to support or performance diagnostics, and all access is subject to strict confidentiality agreements.

5. Content Responsibility

You are responsible for ensuring you have the appropriate rights to any content you upload or share. You may not upload illegal, harmful, or infringing materials. You agree to comply with all applicable intellectual property laws.

6. Usage Rights for Clients

Any rights you grant to your clients (e.g., image licensing) are solely between you and your client. StudioLedger provides the tools to help manage those rights but does not participate in or assume liability for the terms of your licenses or contracts.

7. Storage Policy

While we offer unlimited storage for your routine business needs, this does not include the use of our platform for archiving, system backups, or storing large volumes of data unrelated to your regular use of our services. Misuse may result in additional charges or suspension of your account.

8. Acceptable Use

You agree not to misuse the Service, including:

  • Attempting unauthorized access or interference
  • Sharing login credentials
  • Using the Service for illegal or harmful activities

9. Termination

You may delete your account at any time. Upon deletion, your content and connected integrations will be permanently removed, subject to our backup retention policy. We may suspend or terminate access for violations of these Terms.

10. Disclaimer

The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee availability or performance, and disclaim all implied warranties including merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.

11. Limitation of Liability

StudioLedger will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including lost data, loss of business, or client disputes. Our total liability is limited to the amount paid by you in the 12 months preceding the event.

12. Modifications

We may update these Terms occasionally. You'll be notified of significant changes, and continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance.
