Terms of Use

Last Updated: August 18, 2026

Welcome to TradeForPrint.com.

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of TradeForPrint.com, including its website, member profiles, collaboration tools, messaging features, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

By creating an account or using TradeForPrint.com, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. About TradeForPrint.com

TradeForPrint.com is an online platform designed to help photographers, models, makeup artists, stylists, designers, and other creative professionals discover one another and arrange TFP collaborations.

“TFP” generally refers to a collaborative arrangement in which participants contribute their time, talent, skills, equipment, clothing, makeup, locations, or other agreed contributions without receiving traditional employment compensation.

TradeForPrint.com provides the platform for members to connect. We are not a party to collaborations arranged between members unless expressly stated otherwise.

2. Eligibility

You must meet the minimum age requirements displayed by TradeForPrint.com to create an account or use member features.

You must provide accurate information when creating and maintaining your account.

You may not create an account using another person’s identity or impersonate another individual or organization.

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or our community rules.

3. Your Account

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for activity occurring through your account.

Do not share your password with other people.

You agree to provide accurate account information and keep important information reasonably current.

4. Member Profiles

Members may create profiles containing information such as:

Display name
Profile photograph
Creative role
General location
Biography
Portfolio images
Experience
Collaboration history
Other information relevant to creative collaborations

You are responsible for the information and content you place on your profile.

Do not publish private information that you do not want other people to see.

5. TFP Collaborations

TradeForPrint.com is primarily intended to facilitate genuine TFP collaborations.

Unless everyone involved clearly agrees otherwise before the collaboration, members should understand that a TFP collaboration is not a paid employment arrangement.

Participants should clearly discuss expectations before agreeing to collaborate, including:

What each participant will contribute
The purpose of the collaboration
Proposed date and location
Clothing, equipment, makeup, props, or other materials
Expected photographs or other deliverables
How resulting work may be used
Any unusual expenses or requirements

Members should not surprise another participant with unexpected costs or required purchases.

If a collaboration requires an unusual expense, purchase, rental, admission fee, travel arrangement, or other cost, the participants should discuss and agree to it beforehand.

6. TradeForPrint.com Is Not an Employer or Agency

TradeForPrint.com is a networking platform.

We are not an employer, employment agency, modeling agency, talent agency, photographer’s representative, staffing company, or party to agreements made between members.

Members independently decide whether to contact, meet, work with, or collaborate with another member.

TradeForPrint.com does not guarantee the identity, qualifications, experience, conduct, reliability, safety, or quality of any member.

7. Member Safety

You are responsible for using reasonable judgment when communicating with or meeting people through TradeForPrint.com.

When meeting another member for the first time, consider appropriate safety precautions, such as meeting in a public or professional location, telling someone where you will be, confirming important details beforehand, and arranging your own transportation when appropriate.

Do not participate in a collaboration if you feel unsafe or uncomfortable.

If you believe another member is using TradeForPrint.com for fraud, harassment, exploitation, threats, or other dangerous or unlawful activity, please report the account to us.

If you believe there is an immediate threat to someone’s safety, contact the appropriate local emergency authorities.

We may remove content or restrict accounts when we reasonably believe these rules have been violated.

9. Photographs and User Content

You retain ownership of photographs, portfolio materials, messages, text, and other original content you submit to TradeForPrint.com, subject to any rights belonging to other people.

By uploading or posting content to the Service, you give TradeForPrint.com a non-exclusive license to host, store, reproduce, display, format, and technically process that content as reasonably necessary to operate, promote, maintain, and improve the Service.

You represent that you have the rights or permissions necessary to upload the content you submit.

Do not upload content that infringes another person’s copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights.

10. Copyright and Usage Rights Between Collaborators

Participation in a TFP collaboration does not automatically determine copyright ownership or grant unlimited rights to use photographs or other creative work.

Members are responsible for discussing and agreeing upon usage rights, releases, licensing, credits, publication rights, commercial use, editing rights, and other intellectual-property matters associated with their collaboration.

TradeForPrint.com does not determine ownership of work created during a collaboration and is not responsible for resolving copyright or licensing disputes between members.

Members are encouraged to put important agreements in writing.

11. Collaboration Records

TradeForPrint.com may provide tools for sending collaboration invitations, accepting or declining collaborations, communicating with participants, and marking collaborations complete.

A “Completed Collaboration” displayed on a profile reflects activity recorded through TradeForPrint.com’s system. It is not an endorsement, certification, background check, or guarantee regarding that member.

Members must not manipulate collaboration records or create fake collaborations for the purpose of misleading other users.

12. Messages and Communications

Members may be able to communicate through TradeForPrint.com’s collaboration or messaging features.

You are responsible for messages you send.

Do not use messaging features for harassment, spam, threats, fraud, illegal activity, or other prohibited conduct.

TradeForPrint.com may preserve or review communications when reasonably necessary to investigate reports, enforce these Terms, protect users, maintain the Service, or comply with legal obligations.

13. In-Person Collaborations

TradeForPrint.com does not supervise in-person meetings or collaborations.

You assume the risks associated with choosing to meet or work with another member.

TradeForPrint.com is not responsible for injuries, losses, property damage, disagreements, missed appointments, transportation issues, expenses, conduct, or other events arising from interactions between members, except where responsibility cannot legally be excluded.

14. Payments and Expenses Between Members

Unless TradeForPrint.com specifically introduces a payment feature, financial arrangements made directly between members are outside the TradeForPrint.com platform.

Members are responsible for understanding and agreeing to any expenses before participating in a collaboration.

Never assume another participant will reimburse an expense unless that person has agreed to do so.

15. Advertising and Third-Party Links

TradeForPrint.com may display advertisements, sponsorships, promotional material, affiliate links, or links to third-party websites.

TradeForPrint.com is not responsible for the products, services, content, policies, security, or practices of third-party websites or advertisers.

Your interactions with third parties are between you and those third parties.

18. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the extent permitted by law, TradeForPrint.com and the Service are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.

We do not guarantee that every member is who they claim to be, that profile information is accurate, that a collaboration will occur or be successful, or that another member will behave appropriately.

You are responsible for evaluating people and collaboration opportunities before participating.

Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties or rights that cannot legally be excluded.
