TFP Licence for use

The TFP Licence for Use (Licence)is intended to be use in conjunction with the TFP Contract agreed to by the model. The Licence allows the content created in any particular TFP shoot to be used for commercial purposes by either the client or the photographer for a specified period of time.

Licence Scope

Where normally a TFP Contract prohibits any financial gain from a shoot by either the client or the photographer, with neither the client nor photographer being able to sell images commercially. Under this Licence, this prohibition is forgone for a specific period of time. After this period of time has elapsed, TFP Contract rules come back into effect, with neither party being able to sell any further images.

The licence is specific to any one particular shoot. It is not intended to be used as a “blanket” licence should more than one shoot be conducted on different dates. For simplicity, should a shoot be split across a couple of sessions, all sessions deemed to be part of that shoot are captured under this agreement.

The licence is exclusive to the client and photographer and is not transferrable to any third party.

Licence Period

This Licence will last for a period of 6 months.

The time begins from the day of delivery of images by the photographer. The delivered date specifically refers to the date the photographer has uploaded the final edited images to the online gallery and has notified the client of their delivery.

Notification refers to the email sent from the online gallery to the email address provided by the model. It is the model’s responsibility to check their emails for any notification of uploaded images. No extensions to the Licence will be granted on the basis that a client has not checked their emails and a part of the licence period had already elapsed.

After the period of 6 months has elapsed, the images revert back to the original TFP Contract status, whereby they can only be used for portfolio/marketing purposes. All copies from digital subscription platforms are to be pulled down and no longer can be sold under any circumstances.
