The contract is concluded exclusively between the customer and the Provider. Therefore, we only provide you with our platform for advertising or technical processing of the contract.

First, you create an advertisement in which you describe your project and specify your need for talents (e.g., models, photographers), locations (e.g., photo studios, apartments) and/or equipment (e.g., cameras, lighting equipment).
Here you can decide whether you want to receive the talents, locations and equipment you need from one Provider (“project”) or whether these can also come from different Providers (“individual bookings”).
The Providers can then apply to you for the contract and submit corresponding offers to you.
The contract between you and the Provider (s) is then concluded individually by accepting the offer of the Provider you have chosen. With the acceptance, the contract between you and the corresponding Provider is concluded. Separate storage of the contract text does not occur, but the contract content results in each case individually from the agreement reached.
