These terms apply to production accounts on thescenescout.com, operated by Premiere Production Group Ltd. (“The Scene Scout”, “we”, “us”). By requesting or using a production account, or by ticking the agreement box, you accept them. They work together with our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
Property owners trust us with access to their homes and businesses. These terms exist to protect them, and they are what makes owners comfortable listing with us.
1. Who can hold an account
- Production accounts are for people working on film, TV, commercial or photo productions, such as location managers, scouts, producers and studios.
- You must be at least 18 and give accurate information, including your production and company.
- We approve accounts by hand and may ask you to verify your details. We may decline, limit or suspend any account at our discretion.
2. One person, one login
Your account is for you alone. Don’t share your login or let anyone else use it. Colleagues who need access should request their own account. You’re responsible for everything done under your account. Tell us promptly if you think someone else has used it.
3. What you can access
Approved accounts can view 3D scans and other restricted content for scanned properties, and can send inquiries about any listing.
4. Confidentiality and permitted use
You agree to:
- use restricted content, including 3D scans, only to scout and evaluate locations for your production;
- show a scan on screen to members of your production team who need to see it to evaluate the location, such as the director, producers and department heads;
- keep all information about owners and properties confidential.
You agree not to download, copy, screen-record, screenshot, publish, post or send scans or other restricted content to anyone else.
5. Addresses and owners
Exact addresses are not shown on the site. You must not try to work out a property’s address from its photos, scan or listing details. You must not visit, photograph or approach a property or its neighbours, or contact an owner or occupant, other than through our inquiry process and after we have made an introduction.
6. Inquiries and filming agreements
- Send inquiries about locations through the site.
- Any filming arrangement is made directly between your production and the owner. Use a written location agreement, get any film permits the municipality requires, and provide a certificate of insurance on request.
- Your production is responsible to the owner for the property and for any damage or loss during prep, shooting and wrap, as set out in your agreement with the owner and under the law.
- We are not a party to your agreement with an owner, and we are not responsible for what happens at a property.
7. Conduct
- Treat owners, occupants, neighbours and their property with respect, and follow the law.
- Use your account only for genuine production work. Don’t use it for real-estate purposes, marketing to owners, research or reporting about properties or people, or to collect information.
- Don’t use bots, scrapers or other automated tools on the site.
8. Suspension and ending your account
If you break these terms, we may suspend or close your account immediately and without notice. You can close your account any time by contacting us. Your confidentiality obligations continue after your account ends.
9. Liability
The site and its listings are provided “as is”. Our Terms of Use apply to these terms, including the disclaimers and limits on our liability. We do not guarantee that any property is available, suitable, safe, permitted or accurately described.
10. Your information
We collect and use information about you as described in our Privacy Policy.
11. General
These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. We may update them and will tell you about important changes. Questions? Contact eric@premierepg.ca.
