Contracts

easyFotostock Low Budget Royalty Free (LBRF) contributor contract. It is a document signed by the contributor to supply content to easyFotostock/agefotostock for commercial exploitation of the photos sent. The easyFotostock non-exclusive agreement allows the photographer to send the same images to other agencies.

Workflow

FTP. It is a file transfer protocol to connect to an FTP (ftp.agefotostock.com) server. It is necessary to use client software that transfers your image to our servers. 

Processing of content. Regularly during the day, the FTP robot collects the content sent by the photographer and generates an email with the reception result in a link (files rejected and files accepted).

Edition. Once the images are reviewed, an email with the accepted content result is sent to the photographer.


Documentation

Metadata. The information embedded in the content is the description of what the image shows. This information must be relevant since it is what allows the content to be found on the website.

Description/caption. This information explains the content, the specific location, and any other interesting explanation regarding the content. This is essential information for the editor, but also to find the images on the website. The description must always be received in English.

Keywords. These relevant words in English allow finding the website's images on the Internet. No less than ten (10) keywords separated by commas are needed for every photo. They must be in English.

Releases

Model Release. It is a written document signed by the subject who appears in the content that states that he/she consents the content will be used for commercial purposes. In case that images contain minors, the authorization of an adult is necessary for the Modle Release to be valid.

Property Release. It is a written statement signed by the owner of a property that permits to use of the content for any commercial purpose.

Editorial use only. easyFotostosk does not deal with "Editorial Use Only" images given the extreme responsibility these images could generate if a buyer makes a mistake and misuses the photos.
