1. PURPOSE: This talent and modeling web site is a referral and virtual meeting-place for models, photographers, videographers, makeup-artists, stylists, film-makers, musicians, modeling agencies, actors, actresses, dancers, model representatives and agents. It is also a high quality resource for talent scouts and recruiters looking to hire for Television, Film, Music, Theater, Dancing and Entertainment jobs. It is to be used only for professional, legal and ethical dealings. It is a public access general purpose Internet database of talent (free referrals), and is not a talent agency, modeling agency or modeling school. All of our referrals are absolutely free (no commission). Sharing of a password or login info will result in automatic termination of the membership without any refund, adjustment or credit.

2. NO NUDE, ADULT OR IMMORAL CONTENT: MSL has a written and stated policy prohibiting the posting of nude, lewd, pornographic or sexually explicit content.

It is each user's own responsibility to adhere to this policy. Any violation of this policy, if and when discovered, may result in automatic termination of membership, at the sole discretion of the MSL webmaster or MSL's management without any advance notice, refund, credit, adjustment or further recourse -- MSL's decision to be binding and final on the party or parties concerned.

MSL shall not be responsible in any way for lost or misdirected mail or other communications.

12. PERSONAL INFORMATION: We respect your privacy. The personal information that we collect from you is for internal company use only, and will not be sold to any other company for solicitation purposes for as long as we continue to own this website in its entirety. However, we may sell, lease, license or transfer the personal and other information pertaining to our active members in bulk to another individual, business and/or entity if and/or when we sell, lease, merge and/or transfer this website, Internet Domain Name and/or business to another individual, business or entity. We will not send unsolicited e-mail to the e-mail address that you provide (except important service and system related notices as outlined above). Your e-mail address is not displayed online as a part of your profile, but other users can still send an initial message to you without knowing your e-mail address by using the anonymous e-mailing features built into this site. However, once you send a referral to anyone or respond to a referral, then the other party will come to know of your direct e-mail address. If you voluntarily disclose any personal information in your viewable profile online or in a chat or forum then that information can be collected and used by others and can also result in unsolicited third party messages being sent to you. Of course, you may also receive e-mails from the other users of this web site who access your profile from time to time. You can read our complete Privacy Policy here. Please be careful about who you share your personal information with online because only you are responsible and liable for your own safety and well being. Do not provide your Social Security number, Date of Birth, etc., to any unknown party on the Internet. MSL will never ask you for your Social Security number or your full/exact Date of Birth (just your age).

13. VALID E-MAIL ADDRESS: If any of MSL's e-mail to you is returned as undeliverable due to an invalid e-mail address then MSL reserves the right to disable or delete your Account, Profile, Link(s) and/or Portfolio. If you find that your profile / portfolio / account / link has been disabled or deleted, then please create a new one with the correct contact-information. It is each user's own responsibility to keep their profile current and updated at all times. If you are a paying subscriber then your profile / portfolio / account may be disabled or deleted upon the expiration of your membership term unless renewed ahead of time (before expiration).

14. DURATION OF MEMBERSHIP: MSL reserves the right to delete or disable a free profile or portfolio at any time. The membership for a paying subscriber will either auto-renew (recurring membership) or expire (fixed duration, non-recurring membership) as stated in the online order form, and as chosen by you at the time of ordering. Any profile, portfolio or account (either free or paid) may be deleted without advance notice, at MSL's sole discretion, if it is found to be in violation of these Terms and Conditions or the user is found engaging in apparently illegal or immoral activity. MSL reserves the right to delete any profiles/portfolios with poor picture quality, in order to maintain an overall standard of excellence on this site. For membership duration purposes, one month equals thirty (30) days. Therefore, a 2-month membership is a 60-day membership, a 4-month membership is a 120-day membership, and a 6-month membership is for 180 days. All recurring memberships will renew automatically every 30 days unless cancelled before the next billing cycle.

15. DELETING YOUR OWN PROFILE/PORTFOLIO: If you wish to delete your own profile and/or portfolio completely (either a free membership or a paid subscription), then just edit it, and enter the word "Delete" (without the quote marks) for your First Name, and also enter the same word "Delete" as your Last Name. Then save/update your profile. Do this only once, then don't update your profile again so that we'll know the exact date when it was first done (if you do this more than once then the edit-date will change, as the system will remember only the most recent date when the record was last updated). Your Profile will get deleted as a part of the next scheduled system maintenance which usually occurs once every thirty to sixty (30-60) days, and will no longer be visible online. Please note that deleting a Profile/Portfolio is not the same as cancelling a paid membership (refer to cancellation policy below).

16. AGE OF MODELS, ACTORS, ACTRESSES, MEMBERS: This web site is for use by people of age 18 years or older only. As a protection against the exploitation of minors, the posting of pictures by or of people under 18 years of age is not allowed -- even if fully clothed. By signing up or becoming a member of this web-site (either free or paid membership) you are certifying that you are over eighteen (18) years of age, and agreeing not to upload any images, audio or video of anyone under 18 years of age. You may, however, visit and sign up on one of our other web-sites that allow legitimate/legal postings for models under 18 years of age.

17. NOT A LEGAL OR MEDICAL RESOURCE: This web site is not designed to give legal, medical, psychiatric, professional or career advice. Please consult a competent attorney for legal advice or other appropriate professional(s) for any other type of professional advice.

18. CANCELLATION AND RETURN POLICY:  All one-time (fixed-term, non-recurring) memberships are non-cancelable and non-refundable. No refund or credit will be issued for any unused portion of a one-time (fixed-term, non-recurring) membership. 
If you signed up for a one-time (fixed term, non-recurring) membership then your membership will expire automatically at the end of its initial term, your card or checking account will not be billed/charged again, and you don't need to write to anyone asking to cancel it. If you signed up for a paid recurring membership, and notify us of your intent to cancel prior to its 30-day renewal date, you will not be billed again. The first (initial) payment of a recurring membership is non-refundable and non-cancelable, and renewals occur once every thirty (30) days. To cancel your recurring membership you must send an e-mail to support@modelselection.com and include your Name, Member ID, and the full Transaction information that we sent to you in your initial payment confirmation when you first signed up as a recurring-payment member (please do NOT contact your own bank or credit card company to dispute the charges as it will cause further confusion, and they will refer you back to us anyway). Please allow us up to 72 hours to respond to your e-mail. Please do not call your credit card company to initiate a chargeback or to dispute the charges (they will refer you back to us anyway), and it might further delay matters if you don't go through us first.

The Deposit(s), Booking Fee(s) or Location Charge(s) will be higher for complex and/or out-of-town shoots, and are always non-refundable. If a customer wishes to cancel a product-order before the merchandize is shipped, MSL may cancel it as a courtesy, at its own discretion, but the customer will incur a Ten Percent (10%) Order Cancellation charge. All orders are accepted on the understanding that there will be an in-house processing time of at least Five to Ten (5-10) Business Days (not counting weekends and holidays), plus a Shipping/Transit time of up to Fifteen (15) Business Days (depending on the customer's location), and it is the responsibility of the customer to order well ahead of time so as to allow enough time for a timely delivery.
