- No Guarantee of Confidentiality or Anonymity
While we take reasonable steps to protect your identity and the information you provide, we cannot guarantee complete confidentiality or anonymity. Any information submitted may be subject to legal process or disclosure requirements under applicable federal or state laws.
- Security Notice
We implement technical and organizational security measures to protect tip submissions and email communications, including encrypted transmission and secure server infrastructure. However, no system is completely immune to compromise. By submitting a tip, you understand and accept the risk that information could be accessed unlawfully in the event of a security breach or cyberattack.

Tip submissions are voluntary. Do not include classified, proprietary, or legally restricted information unless you are authorized to share it. You are solely responsible for ensuring that you are not violating any laws or agreements by submitting your tip.

Submission of a tip does not establish a reporter-source, attorney-client, or any other privileged relationship. We reserve the right to determine how or whether to pursue the information you provide.
- Legal Jurisdiction
This website is operated within the United States and complies with U.S. federal and state laws. By submitting a tip, you agree that any disputes shall be governed by the laws of the state in which Clip Artist Films is headquartered, without regard to conflict of law principles.
- Third-Party Platforms and Email Providers
If you use third-party platforms (e.g., public Wi-Fi, email services, or web browsers) to submit tips, your data may be subject to those platforms' terms of service and privacy policies, over which we have no control.
- Updates and Modifications
This disclaimer may be updated at any time. Continued use of the tip submission system after changes constitutes acceptance of those changes.
If you are concerned about anonymity or security, we encourage you to use secure and privacy-conscious methods such as encrypted email or offline communication.
