C4Urselves : Your Window on the World
...Have you ever wanted to experience the sights and sounds of places you’ve never been to?
...Have you taken a walk on a beautiful day, and wished you could share the experience with others?
C4Urselves is an ethical community exclusively dedicated to celebrating and enhancing our experience of the world as it really is, as captured by people like you.
Specifically, we want to create to an authentic experience of what it’s actually like to walk (or cycle, sail or even snowboard) through a real place.
This could be anywhere: the streets of your hometown, a path through the woods, a place you’re visiting for the first time. What’s ordinary to you could be extraordinary to someone in another part of the world. It could be filmed using the latest gadget, or a simple smartphone.
C4Urselves enables anyone to share what it’s like going for a walk down your childhood streets. It enables those who can’t travel to experience places they may never have even heard of. It allows us all, as a human race, to share the beauty of our wonderfully varied world with each other, and capture it for posterity - no frills attached.
What makes us different?
We are a social enterprise motivated by three things:
- Celebrating and providing an authentic experience of the world as it really is
- Capturing the world as it is today, for tomorrow – before it changes forever
- Helping to drive a revolution in person-centred online communities
Our values underpin everything we do:
- We are authentic. Our videos are made by real people, in line with clear criteria, with no corporate vested interests and no commentary.
- We are transparent. We don’t want to know everything about you, we won’t harvest your data, and we won’t sell your details on to third parties.
- We have integrity. We exist only for the love of sharing with others what a place is really like, from your eyes.
Our promise to you
C4Urselves isn’t just another video-sharing platform.
We want to make the world a better place. We want to use the power of the internet for good, and put it in your hands.
In particular, we believe that your personal data belongs to you, and that online platforms and communities have a responsibility to respect your privacy and be fully transparent in how that data is used.
Unlike other websites, we won’t bombard you with adverts. We won’t even bombard you with requests to send you more targeted adverts. We won’t harvest your data and we won’t pass on your personal information to any third parties, full stop (except where legally obliged to do so). In fact, we don’t need to know anything about you that you don’t want to tell us yourself.
This is our promise to you, and we will stick to it.
