CastingMeet Terms & Conditions
Information-only launch draft for owner and legal review. CastingMeet is preparing an information-only website. Public registration, paid memberships, applications, competitions and payments are not open. The future-service provisions below are draft proposals, not a live membership or purchase agreement.
These Terms & Conditions are being prepared for CastingMeet, an online platform intended to connect creative talent with employers, casting professionals, opportunities, training and selected competitions. Final operator identity, registered address, governing law, membership pricing, renewal/cancellation settings, age rules and formal contact details must be completed and legally reviewed before public registration or payments are enabled.
1. Agreement to these Terms
When public registration opens, creating an account, using member features, purchasing a membership or otherwise accepting these Terms will form an agreement between the user and the entity operating CastingMeet. Users should read these Terms, the Privacy Policy, Community Guidelines, Casting & Job Posting Guidelines and any competition- or course-specific rules that apply.
2. What CastingMeet provides
CastingMeet is intended to provide talent profiles and portfolios, talent search, casting calls and creative job listings, applications, employer shortlists and invitations, internal communications, audition/self-tape workflows, selected competitions and voting features, and links or access to courses. Availability of particular features may depend on account type, verification, membership status, location and the stage of platform development.
3. Account types
Users may participate as Talent or as an Employer/Casting Professional, subject to eligibility and verification requirements. Users must provide accurate information, keep login credentials secure and must not impersonate another person or organisation, create deceptive accounts or allow unauthorised use of their account.
4. Age and minors
Final minimum-age and parent/guardian requirements will be published before public registration opens. Additional safeguards may apply to minors, including account management, communications, casting applications, image/video use, auditions, travel and employment-related activity. CastingMeet may restrict features or request age/guardian verification where required for safety or legal compliance.
5. Talent profiles and portfolios
Talent members are responsible for ensuring profile information, credits, skills, photos, audio, résumés and showreels are accurate and that they have the necessary rights and permissions to upload and display that material. Public profile media may be subject to quantity, duration, file-type and size limits. CastingMeet currently plans to limit public profile/showreel video to three videos of up to three minutes each.
6. Privacy and off-platform contact
CastingMeet is designed to keep professional contact within the platform. Users must not deliberately publish or solicit personal email addresses, telephone numbers, social-media handles or external contact links in areas where CastingMeet prohibits them in order to bypass membership, privacy or safety controls. CastingMeet may filter or remove such information.
7. Talent membership
When paid memberships launch, an active eligible Talent membership will be required to submit applications to CastingMeet casting calls or jobs where the platform indicates membership is required. Talent may still have access to other free or separately purchased features as described at the time.
8. Employer membership
When paid memberships launch, an active eligible Employer membership will be required for specified recruitment functions such as contacting talent, sending invitations or using other premium employer tools. Employer verification may also be required.
9. Membership prices, duration, renewal and cancellation
Before any paid membership is offered, CastingMeet will clearly disclose the total price, membership duration, included features, whether renewal is automatic or manual, the renewal price and timing, how to cancel, and when cancellation takes effect. CastingMeet will not rely on these Terms to remove rights that cannot lawfully be excluded. Final refund and cancellation rules will be published before payments are enabled.
10. Courses
Courses are separate from Talent and Employer annual memberships unless a particular offer expressly states otherwise. Course-specific descriptions, fees, schedules, eligibility, cancellation/refund terms and learning requirements may apply.
11. Casting calls and job listings
Employers must post genuine opportunities and accurately disclose material information including the role, project type, location, relevant dates, eligibility, compensation or unpaid status where applicable, usage expectations and important conditions. Fraudulent, misleading, unlawful, exploitative or unsafe listings are prohibited.
12. Applications, auditions and hiring decisions
CastingMeet is developing tools intended to facilitate applications, invitations, screening questions, self-tapes, auditions and communications. These tools are not open for public use. Unless expressly stated otherwise, CastingMeet is not the employer, casting director, agent or producer for third-party opportunities and does not guarantee that a member will receive an audition, booking, job, representation or other outcome. Employers remain responsible for their selection and engagement decisions and for complying with applicable workplace, contracting, child-employment, discrimination, safety and other laws.
13. Competition and voting rules
Selected competitions may use verified member voting. Competition-specific rules may define eligibility, subscription requirements, voting periods, rounds, vote limits, judging components and whether vote totals are displayed. Automated voting, duplicate-account manipulation, false identities, coordinated fraud or attempts to defeat voting controls are prohibited. CastingMeet may review, invalidate or investigate votes reasonably identified as fraudulent or ineligible, subject to the published competition rules and any applicable law.
14. User content and permissions
Users retain ownership of content they own. By uploading content to CastingMeet, a user grants the platform the permissions reasonably necessary to host, process, reproduce, resize, transcode and display that content for operation of the service and the features the user chooses to use. Users must have permission from identifiable people appearing in uploaded material where permission is required. Separate express permissions may be required for promotional use outside the ordinary platform service.
15. Prohibited conduct
Users must not engage in fraud, impersonation, harassment, threats, hateful or exploitative conduct, unlawful content, malware, scraping, unauthorised data collection, account trading, security circumvention, spam, vote manipulation, intellectual-property infringement or attempts to misuse private application/audition material.
16. Moderation, suspension and account action
CastingMeet may investigate reports and may remove content, restrict features or suspend accounts where reasonably necessary for safety, security, legal compliance, fraud prevention or enforcement of platform rules. Final notice, review and appeal procedures will be documented before launch. Nothing in this clause is intended to create an unfair unilateral right to deprive a paying user of contracted services without an appropriate remedy where the law requires one.
17. Intellectual property
The CastingMeet name, branding, software, original site design and platform content are protected to the extent provided by applicable law. Users may not copy, scrape, reproduce or commercially exploit platform materials except as permitted by law or expressly authorised.
18. Third-party services
CastingMeet may integrate hosting, email, analytics, media, payment, video, security or other third-party services. Third-party services may have their own terms and privacy practices. Material providers and payment arrangements will be disclosed where appropriate before launch.
19. Platform availability and changes
CastingMeet may maintain, improve or modify the service. Material negative changes to paid services will be handled consistently with applicable consumer law and the terms presented when the membership was purchased. CastingMeet does not promise uninterrupted operation where outages or maintenance are outside reasonable control, but this does not exclude statutory rights.
20. Consumer rights
Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, statutory right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including rights that may apply under the Australian Consumer Law.
21. Liability
Final liability provisions will be legally reviewed before launch. Any permitted limitation of liability will be subject to non-excludable statutory rights and will not apply where exclusion or limitation is prohibited by law.
22. Privacy
Personal information will be handled in accordance with the CastingMeet Privacy Policy and applicable privacy obligations. The final Privacy Policy will identify the platform operator, material service-provider categories, international data arrangements and formal privacy contact details before launch.
23. Changes to these Terms
Material changes to these Terms will be communicated appropriately. CastingMeet will not use a general variation clause to unfairly impose material negative changes to an existing paid contract without regard to applicable consumer protections.
24. Governing law and disputes
The governing-law, jurisdiction, complaints and dispute-resolution provisions will be completed after the final operating entity and business structure are confirmed. Nothing in the final clause will restrict rights that users cannot lawfully waive.
25. Contact
General enquiries can be sent to info@castingmeet.com. CastingMeet is the public-facing name. The legal operator name, business address, jurisdiction and formal legal contact details still require confirmation before the information-only public launch.
