5. People and organisations listed
5.1 If you or your organisation is listed on
this site, you are agreeing to the following:
- (a) We welcome all applications to be listed on this
site from sponsors and advertisers, and from models seeking
modelling and promotional work. (Note: Models must be
at least 18 years old to be listed on this site.) However,
we DO NOT permit entries which aim to solicit or encourage
any illegal or offensive activities. This includes, but
is not limited to, images which are sexually explicit
or pornographic.
- (b) When you submit your portfolio details, you are
giving us permission to publish that information on this
site. This may include using some of your images for promotional
purposes. However, application contact details are for
administration only and are kept secure and not
disclosed to anyone other than under legal obligations
imposed on us.
- (c) We reserve the right to decline a request to be
listed from any person or organisation and are not obliged
to provide reasons why such a request may be refused.
In addition, we reserve the right to remove people and
organisations from our lists at any time without explanation.
In these circumstances only, if you have paid an advertising
fee we will make a pro-rata refund of any fee paid by
you, the amount being dependent on the length of the current
unexpired listing period, the maximum amount not exceeding
the original listing fee.
- (d) We may reword details supplied to us if we believe
it will improve clarity and presentation and avoid unnecessary
repetition.
- (e) For models wishing to present their portfolio we
offer two options (see e.1 and e.2 below). For Option 1 there is a one-off set-up fee of £14.95. Hosting thereafter is provided FREE. In addition, no further commissions are
charged on work found by models as a result of being listed
on our site. Up to three amendments may be made each year
FREE of charge, the date starting from the date the portfolio
was originally listed. Further changes are charged at
£10 for each amendment.
- (e.1) Under Option One, we will create an individual
web page and assign it a unique name beginning with
"www.modelling4u.co.uk/profiles/". A thumbnail
image will be shown on our search
galleries which links to the model's web page that
we have created. A one-off set-up fee of £14.95 is payable for this option. Owing to our low cost administration structure, once the portfolio has been created we regret no refunds can be made. (Please note that from February 2007, hit counters will no longer be available on models' portfolios.)
- (e.2) Option two can be used if a model already
has his/her own web site for modelling and/or promotional work. Under this option we will
add the model's photograph to our search
galleries with a link to their own web site. This service is provided FREE of charge. (Note: We only provide links to personal web sites for modelling and/or promotional work, not to other modelling agencies' web sites. Email addresses are not permitted; neither are links to social networking sites such as "MySpace".)
- (e.3) Under both options, anyone submitting photographs
to us is also confirming that they have permission
from the copyright holder for us to use the image(s).
- (e.4) Agencies: Please note we are not resourced
to accept multiple applications from agencies.
- (f) When contacting us, either
through the site's online form or by email, please state
your application contact details in full (see forms on
our add your portfolio page),
including your security keyword. This information confirms
your identify to us.
- (g) We shall not be responsible or liable for any unsolicited
emails or other contact made by any vistors to this site
after accessing information provided by people and organisations
listed.
- (h) The people and organisations listed are responsible
for all statements made in the details provided to us
as part of our application procedure and for any acts
that occur as a result of other visitors contacting them.

6. Removing your name from our lists
- People and organisations listed who no longer wish to
be listed should let us know as soon as possible in order
to prevent unnecessary referrals being made to them and
for us to maintain a useful service to other people using
our site facilities. Owing to our low-cost structure,
we regret we are unable to provide refunds to advertisers
for any unexpired proportion of their current listing
period where the advertiser has asked us to remove their
details. We are also unable to refund any model's set-up fee once the portfolio has been created.
- As our portfolio hosting services are free, we reserve the right
to remove any model's portfolio without notice and without
explanation at any time.
