Photo Upload Agreement


In order to upload photos to the StageCenta website (the Site) and StageCenta mobile application (the Application), you must enter into this Photo Upload Agreement. This Agreement is a supplementary but separate agreement to the StageCenta Terms of Use. The Site and the Application are collectively referred to herein as the Products.

 

PURPOSE & PARTIES

These terms and conditions govern uploading of digital and digitised images (photos) to the Site located at http://www.stagecenta.com and the StageCenta mobile application.

These terms and conditions (T&Cs) apply to any person(s) (including but not limited to individual(s), unincorporated association(s), incorporated association(s) or corporation(s)) uploading photos to the Products (you, your or user).
 
The Site and Application is owned and operated by Inbizecom Pty Ltd (ACN 092 284 029) trading as StageCenta (we, our, us or StageCenta).
