How We Keep Funeral Live Streams Private and Secure

A funeral is one of the most private occasions in a person's life. The last thing any family needs is to discover that their loved one's service was accessible to strangers. At TributeCast.NZ, privacy is not an afterthought, it's built into everything we do.

No Public Platforms

We do not stream to YouTube, Facebook, or any other public platform. These services are designed for broad audiences, and they come with risks, videos can be discovered in search results, shared without your knowledge, or remain accessible long after you intended.

Instead, we use a dedicated private streaming platform. Your service exists only on a secure page with no public presence. It can't be found by searching, and it can't be viewed without the correct credentials.

Password Protection

Every stream is protected by a unique password. You receive this password before the service, and you share it only with the people you want to invite. Even if someone were to find the link itself, they couldn't watch without the password.

Access is always in your hands. You decide who sees the service and who doesn't.

Secure Video Hosting

The recording (where included) is hosted on a secure platform with the same access controls as the live stream. It is not stored in a publicly accessible cloud folder or shared via a generic file-sharing service. Access is controlled, monitored, and time-limited.

Discretion on the Day

Our team operates with full discretion during the service. We dress appropriately, work quietly, and do not intrude on the proceedings. Guests at the venue are often unaware that a live stream is taking place unless they're told, which is exactly how it should be.

Your Control, Your Family

From the moment we set up to the moment the recording is removed from the platform, you are in control. We don't share footage, we don't use recordings for any purpose other than hosting for your family, and we don't retain content beyond the agreed hosting period without your consent.

Privacy is a promise, not a feature. To find out more, visit tributecast.nz.
