The rules we follow

  • Ask first. Film only people who say yes, and show them the video before you post it.
  • No face needed: hands, voice, food, fields and objects are enough. Never film neighbours or kids without their parents' OK.
  • Label AI-made voices, images or video when YouTube or Instagram asks (YouTube Studio has a checkbox for altered or synthetic content).
  • Use only music you're allowed to use (YouTube Audio Library), or your family's own voice.
  • Be honest in titles. No fake views, no paid subscribers.
