-      <p>
-        On Developer &amp; Automation and Enterprise plans (and self-hosted deployments where
-        enabled), you may supply an absolute HTTP(S) callback URL when creating a render job. We
-        store that URL with the job record and, when encoding or upload reaches a terminal state,
-        may POST a JSON payload to it. Typical fields include event type, job and item identifiers,
-        status, optional YouTube video ID, error message, and completion timestamp.
-      </p>
-      <p>
-        You choose the destination (for example your n8n webhook, Make scenario, or your own
-        server). We do not control how that endpoint stores or shares the payload. Only set URLs you
-        own or are authorized to use. Delivery is best-effort; we do not guarantee receipt or
-        retention by the receiving system.
