Disclaimer

Important information about the limitations of the FirstSlate platform and the nature of the content and tools it provides.

Last updated: July 7, 2026

General Disclaimer

FirstSlate provides a client workflow management platform for video producers and creative agencies. The Service is provided for business workflow purposes only. While we work hard to ensure the platform is reliable and accurate, FirstSlate makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability, or availability of the Service or its content for any purpose.

Not Legal Advice

Nothing within the FirstSlate platform — including proposal templates, contract language, intake form content, or any other document generated by the Service — constitutes legal advice. All content is provided for general informational and workflow purposes only.

Proposals and crew agreements signed through FirstSlate capture a typed signature, the signer's consent to transact electronically, and a timestamped record of the acceptance. Whether a signed document forms an enforceable contract depends on its content, the parties, and applicable law. FirstSlate does not guarantee the enforceability of any agreement and is not a substitute for legal counsel.

You should work with a qualified attorney to create contract terms appropriate for your business and jurisdiction, especially for high-value or complex engagements. FirstSlate's templates are starting points, not legal advice.

Not Financial or Accounting Advice

FirstSlate is not an accounting platform, financial advisor, or tax tool. Invoice amounts, payment schedules, and financial summaries displayed within the platform are based solely on data you enter and are provided for your own tracking convenience.

FirstSlate is not a payroll service or tax preparer, and it does not file anything on your behalf. Payout tracking, profitability views, and 1099 export totals are conveniences based solely on the records you keep in the platform, and you should verify them with a licensed accountant before relying on them for filings. Nothing in the Service constitutes financial, accounting, or tax advice.

No Guarantee of Results

FirstSlate does not guarantee any specific business outcomes, revenue, or client results from use of the platform. The attention flags, project status indicators, and workflow tools within the Service are informational aids based on the data you input — they are not professional assessments or guarantees of accuracy. You remain solely responsible for all business decisions made using information from the platform.

Third-Party Links & Integrations

The Service may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites and services. These are provided for your convenience. FirstSlate has no control over the content, privacy practices, or reliability of third-party sites and services, and assumes no responsibility for them. Inclusion of a third-party link does not imply endorsement.

Service Availability

We strive to maintain high availability of the Service but cannot guarantee uninterrupted access. The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to scheduled maintenance, infrastructure issues, or circumstances beyond our control. FirstSlate is not liable for any loss or damage arising from service interruptions.
