Briefs managed by Talent Managers
If you accept a Brief or join a campaign on the Vamp Platform by way of an invite from a Talent Manager, you are bound by the terms of the Talent Manager Terms on the date that you accept the Brief from the Talent Manager.
If you accept a Brief by way of an invite from a Talent Manager, you agree and acknowledge that you have read and agree to the Talent Manager Terms, which apply to you in respect of the Services provided under that Brief. To the extent of any inconsistency with these Terms and Conditions and the Talent Manager Terms, the Talent Manager Terms will prevail. For the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, you will continue to be bound by clauses 4, 5.6, 5.7, 7, 8, 9 and 10 of these Terms and Conditions with respect to your conduct for all Briefs.
If you apply for and/or accept a Brief directly (i.e. not by way of a Talent Manager invite), these Terms and Conditions apply (whether or not you have engaged a talent manager/talent agency or a Talent Manager including prior to or subsequent to accepting a Brief).
You may apply for a Brief by following the instructions set out in the Vamp Platform. The following conditions apply to any application you make for a Brief:
Vamp has sole and exclusive discretion to determine who it selects to provide Services under a Brief;
if you are asked to provide information in connection with any application for a Brief, you represent and warrant to Vamp that the information you have provided is true and correct. For the avoidance of doubt, this information may include, but is not limited to:
information as to whether you've worked with a Brand previously, or other brands or companies you have worked with; and
any Information. You agree and acknowledge that the accuracy and veracity of the information you provide to Vamp is critical in Vamp making an assessment of whether you are selected to provide Services under a Brief.
The Services may include, without limitation, the following tasks to be completed by you and services to be provided by you in connection with a Brief:
posting of images, videos, "Boomerangs", gifs or other media (including "Instagram TV" and "Instagram Stories") on Instagram or other social media channels in respect of a nominated brand, product or other matter (Post). You may be required to make multiple Posts as part of a Brief;
in connection with any Posts referred to in paragraph (1):
using #tags, @mentions as required in the Brief;
posting in the correct format (e.g. videos, photos, "stories");
not posting content which relates to certain matters, brands or topics during a designated date range (or in perpetuity) or not using any #tags, @mentions etc; and
without limitation, posting at certain times, posting during certain time periods, maintaining Posts for certain time periods, posting with the frequency required during a designated date range; and
granting and allowing Vamp to have "partner" access to your Instagram Account for a specified period. (the Services).
The Scope of Services is defined by the Brief. You agree to provide the Services strictly in accordance with the Scope set out in the Brief and these Terms and Conditions.
Any request by a Brand or Vamp to materially expand the Scope of Services beyond what is outlined in the Brief – including additional Posts, new content formats, new platforms, extended campaign durations, or material changes to creative direction – constitutes a Significant Variation.
A Significant Variation will only be binding on you if it is agreed in writing between you and Vamp via the Vamp Platform or other written communication.
Vamp will use reasonable endeavours to agree revised fees with you where a Significant Variation materially increases the work required to fulfil the Brief.
Minor changes to a Brief, including caption edits, hashtag adjustments or formatting corrections, do not constitute a Significant Variation and must be complied with as part of the Services.
Any Posts you make must not contain anything that:
is illegal or contrary to any Law or anything having the force of Law in a Jurisdiction or infringes the rights of any other person;
is indecent, obscene, discriminatory (in any manner) or promotes unruly, offensive or illegal behaviour;
defames or disparages Vamp or a Brand; or
involves the transmission of junk mail or spam.
The Brief will specify the number of revision rounds included. Where no number is specified, you are required to make up to two (2) rounds of Revisions at no additional cost.
A "round of Revisions" means one consolidated set of feedback provided by Vamp or the Brand on a submitted piece of content. You are entitled to treat all feedback provided at the same time as a single round.
If Vamp or a Brand requests additional Revisions beyond the included rounds, Vamp will notify you and, where agreed, additional fees may apply. You are not required to proceed with additional Revisions unless a revised fee has been agreed in writing.
Revisions must be submitted within the timeframes set out in the Brief. Where no timeframe is specified, Revisions must be submitted within five (5) business days of receiving feedback.
Where a Brief requires content to be submitted for approval prior to posting, you must submit content to Vamp via the Vamp Platform within the timeframe specified in the Brief.
Vamp will use reasonable endeavours to provide approval or feedback within five (5) business days of submission.
If Vamp or the Brand does not respond to a content submission within thirty (30) business days of submission (or such other period as specified in the Brief), the content will be Deemed Approved (Deemed Approval). For the avoidance of doubt, Deemed Approval does not authorise you to post the content without explicit written approval from Vamp. Upon Deemed Approval: (a) your contractual obligations in respect of that deliverable are taken to be fulfilled; (b) the relevant Payment becomes due and payable by Vamp in accordance with clause 5.2; and (c) you must hold the content ready for posting and must post promptly upon receiving written approval from Vamp.
Deemed Approval does not apply where:
Vamp has notified you in writing that the approval period is extended due to Brand-side requirements; or
the content contains material that would otherwise breach clause 4.3.
Where a campaign is delayed by more than fifteen (15) business days due to Brand or client approval delays, Vamp will notify you of the revised campaign timeline and your obligations under the Brief are adjusted accordingly.
You are required to maintain Posts live for the period specified in the Brief. If no period is specified, Posts must be maintained for a minimum of twelve (12) months from the date of posting.
If a Brand or Vamp requests early removal of a Post:
Vamp will notify you in writing with the reason and required removal date;
you must comply with any removal request within twenty-four (24) hours of receiving written notice; and
early takedown at a Brand's request will not affect your entitlement to receive the full Payment for the Brief, provided you have otherwise fulfilled your obligations.
If you need to remove a Post for a legitimate personal or legal reason (for example, where a product subject to a Post has been recalled or is subject to a legal claim), you must notify Vamp in writing as soon as practicable before removing the Post.
Vamp will not unreasonably withhold consent to Post removal in the circumstances described in sub-clause (3).
To the extent that any Brief under which you provide Services stipulates conditions that you must meet in relation to the provision of the Services:
those conditions in relation to the provision of your Services are critical and must be complied with as an essential part of providing the Services; and
if any of the conditions relates to the timing of the provision of any Services, time is of the essence in relation to those conditions.
You will be paid a fixed amount for each Brief, regardless of the number of Posts made for a Brief or the nature of Services to be performed. The amount to be paid will be set out on the Vamp Platform when you apply for and accept a Brief (Payment). Any amount in addition to the Payment that Vamp may make to you in relation to a Brief is at the sole and exclusive discretion of Vamp.
Creator fees will be paid once all campaign deliverables outlined in the Brief have been successfully completed and payment has been received from the relevant Brand or client. Payments will be processed within five (5) business days of Vamp receiving funds from the Brand or client, provided that:
all deliverables have been completed in accordance with the Brief;
content has been submitted and approved (where approval is required) or Deemed Approval has occurred under clause 4.5;
the creator has provided all necessary payment details; and
the creator is not otherwise in breach of this Agreement.
You acknowledge that payment timing is dependent on the Brand or client fulfilling their payment obligations to Vamp, which may be up to sixty (60) days or more as outlined in the relevant agreement between Vamp and the Brand or client. Vamp is not responsible for delays caused by late payment from the Brand or client, provided that Vamp has taken reasonable steps to recover the relevant funds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Vamp has not received Brand or client payment within sixty (60) days of the date that payment became due from the Brand or client, Vamp's payment obligation to you becomes absolute and Vamp will pay you within five (5) business days of the expiry of that 60-day period, regardless of whether Vamp has received funds from the Brand or client. In such circumstances, Vamp bears the recovery risk as against the Brand or client.
Vamp will notify you as soon as reasonably practicable if a Brand or client payment is delayed, and will provide a revised payment estimate where possible.
All payments made by Vamp to you will be through PayPal using the details provided by you when registering for the Vamp Platform or such other payment method allowable and nominated by Vamp. It is your responsibility to ensure that these details have been provided and are correct. Vamp does not bear any responsibility for payments made to an incorrect PayPal account or other account.
To the extent a quoted Payment for a Brief is in currency which is required to be converted to another currency for any reason, then the foreign exchange rate which applies to that payment will be the lower of:
the exchange rate applying at the time the Agreement is entered into; and
the exchange rate applying at the time the Payment becomes due and payable under the Agreement.
Vamp will pay an additional amount for Taxes if this is applicable to you and/or the Services in the relevant Jurisdiction. Vamp may also, from time to time, deduct withholding tax or any similar type of tax from amounts payable under clause 5.1 if required by any Law.
Any payment made by the Client to Vamp may be applied by Vamp in any manner it sees fit.
If there are specific conditions relating to the Services to be performed by you, including, but not limited to:
making Posts and submitting proofs within a certain time-frame, or by a certain time;
making Posts in a certain content format;
making a certain number of Posts;
making Posts by a certain date or time;
maintaining Posts for a certain time period; or
inclusion of certain elements required by a Client, including #hashtags, @mentions and any other relevant wording;
and you fail to meet any of those conditions, Vamp is not required to pay you for those Services in relation to that Brief, on the basis that those conditions are critical conditions of the Brief you are providing Services in relation to. For the avoidance of doubt, failure to perform all Services and complete all requirements and remain signed up to the Vamp Platform until a campaign described in a Brief is completed will result in a forfeiture of the Payment. Should you fail to perform Services in any manner, at any time, Vamp may remove you from the Vamp Platform in its sole and exclusive discretion.
If in conjunction with any application for a Brief under clause 3 of these Terms and Conditions:
you provide incorrect, untrue, false or misleading information to Vamp; and/or
you fail to meet any undertakings you give in the Brief application, you will be in breach of the Agreement, and Vamp is not required to pay you for any Services you may thereafter provide under the relevant Brief.
You retain ownership of all Materials produced by you in connection with a Brief and all IPR in those Materials. By submitting Materials to Vamp, you grant Vamp Australia a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence to use, reproduce, distribute, adapt and display those Materials for the purposes of providing the Services and fulfilling the Brief, including sharing Materials with the relevant Brand in accordance with the Usage Rights specified in the Brief.
You acknowledge that the Usage Rights applicable to your Materials are as specified in the Brief. Usage Rights may include the platform, territory, duration and manner in which the Brand may use your Materials. Where Usage Rights are not specified in the Brief, the Brand receives a limited licence to use your Materials for organic social media purposes only, for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of posting.
Vamp may use your Materials for its own internal and external marketing and promotional purposes (including case studies and portfolio materials) with your prior written consent. Such consent will be sought via the Vamp Platform or by written communication.
You represent and warrant that:
you are the sole author of all Materials produced by you in the course of providing Services (unless you are specifically instructed to work with another party in a Brief), which will be wholly original to you, and not in breach of the rights of any third party, including any IPR;
any Materials you produce will not infringe the IPR of any third party or any other proprietary or moral rights of a third party;
any Materials you produce will not infringe any Laws; and
any Materials you produce will not be defamatory, obscene, graphic, pornographic, racially or religiously insensitive, or in any way discriminatory or offensive.
You acknowledge that:
you may be provided with Client Materials by Vamp to assist you in providing the Services; and
if you are provided with Client Materials, you agree that those Client Materials are provided to you on the basis that:
the Client Materials are only to be used for the provision of the Services in connection with a Brief and for no other purpose;
you will keep the Client Materials strictly confidential and only disclose Client Materials when compelled by any Law, at which point you will advise Vamp of this;
you will take all reasonable steps to keep the Client Materials secure; and
you will destroy or return all Client Materials relevant to a Brief when the Services in relation to that Brief have been completed.
You agree to provide certain personal information to Vamp as a condition of use of the Vamp Platform, such as your:
name;
address;
email address;
phone number;
PayPal account details; and
other information as might be required by Vamp from time to time, including tax status.
(together, the Information)
You represent and warrant to Vamp that the Information provided by you is, and will be at all times, true and accurate in all respects. You must notify Vamp of any change in circumstances that may cause the Information you have provided to become misleading, inaccurate or untrue. You acknowledge that Vamp will rely on the Information in performing its obligations under the Agreement and in complying with Laws (including without limitation, any taxation laws) and you hereby indemnify Vamp for any special, incidental, indirect, statutory, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages, including loss of profits, arising out of, or in any way related to the inaccuracy of the Information.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Vamp's total aggregate liability to you arising out of or in connection with the Agreement or the Services, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise, is limited to the amount of the Payment for the relevant Brief giving rise to the claim. Vamp excludes all liability for indirect, consequential, incidental or special loss or damage (including loss of revenue, loss of profits, loss of data or loss of opportunity), except to the extent that such liability cannot be excluded by law. Nothing in this clause limits or excludes Vamp's liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by Vamp's negligence; (b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation by Vamp; or (c) any liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded under applicable law, including the Australian Consumer Law and, for UK-Jurisdiction creators, the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Vamp, its employees, personnel and agents from any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses arising out of or in any way connected with any of the following matters:
the content of any Posts you may make or Services you may provide;
your breach of the parameters of any Brief or the Terms and Conditions;
your breach of any IPR;
any misrepresentation made by you;
your violation of any Laws; and
any of the warranties and undertakings you have given under the Brief or these Terms and Conditions; whether such matters are alleged or otherwise.
For as long as you are signed up for the Vamp Platform (or if you are not signed up for the Vamp Platform, you have been otherwise engaged by Vamp to perform Services):
you undertake that:
you are and will be the sole author of all Materials produced by you in the course of providing Services (unless you are specifically instructed to work with another party in a Brief), which will be wholly original to you, and not in breach of the rights of any third party;
you are in compliance with all relevant Laws in the Jurisdiction and will continue to comply with same;
you will follow any best practice guidelines endorsed by Vamp and notified to you from time to time;
you will not make any public statements or communications of any nature in relation to any Brief or any Brand, without the prior written consent of Vamp and the relevant Brand;
if you are producing Materials as part of the Services you are providing, you will not make any public statement or communication about the Materials other than what is agreed with Vamp or the relevant Brand;
you will not do anything which would defame, tend to defame or could be construed as being defamatory, derogatory or disparaging of Vamp or any Brand or their affiliates, whether in conjunction with the Services or not;
whether in connection with the Services or not, you will not post any obscene, graphic, racially or religiously insensitive or any otherwise discriminatory content which is offensive or might tend to offend any person; and
you will not be under the influence of drugs or substances (apart from anything prescribed to you by a medical practitioner) in performing any of the Services.
you represent and warrant that:
you do not have a criminal record (except in relation to minor traffic offences) in any Jurisdiction and are not subject to any outstanding criminal investigation; and
you have not taken any fraudulent action, or procured that any fraudulent action is taken in relation to your social media channels, including buying followers or engagement.
You agree that, during the period of any active Brief and for ninety (90) days from the completion or cancellation of that Brief, you will not directly solicit or accept direct engagement from any Brand with whom you worked through the Vamp Platform in connection with that Brief, without the prior written consent of Vamp. For clarity, this restraint: (a) applies only in respect of Brands introduced to you via the Vamp Platform; (b) does not prevent you from working with any Brand through another platform or intermediary; and (c) does not prevent you from working with any Brand with whom you had a pre-existing direct relationship prior to your engagement through Vamp. If any part of this clause is found to be unenforceable, the remaining parts continue in full force. Nothing in this clause prevents you from continuing your ordinary social media activities, accepting brand deals through other channels, or otherwise operating as a content creator.
So long as you are signed up for the Vamp Platform:
you agree to not publish any material, whether in print or electronically, make any statement or do any other thing which may tend to defame or bring into disrepute, Vamp or any brand, product or person/party referred to in a Brief or in respect of which you have provided Services (Brand), or otherwise say or do anything that is adverse or prejudicial to Vamp or a Brand, or permit any such thing to be done on your behalf; and
you agree to indemnify Vamp for any costs, losses or liabilities arising out of a breach of paragraph (1) by you.
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in a Brief or these Terms and Conditions or performance of obligations in relation to same constitute any relationship of employer and employee, principal and agent or partnership between you and Vamp. You must not represent yourself as being an employee, agent or partner of Vamp.
Vamp reserves the right to generally monitor the Vamp Platform and all activity through the Vamp Platform. If you are in breach of these Terms and Conditions or Vamp suspects that you are in breach of these Terms and Conditions, or engaged in suspicious, fraudulent, abusive or other activity which Vamp (in its absolute and exclusive discretion) determines is not in accordance with its values or may be detrimental to its or a Brand's interests, it may choose to suspend or terminate your access to the Vamp Platform.
If Vamp cancels a Brief after it has been accepted by you, the following applies:
if cancellation occurs before you have commenced work on any deliverable, no Kill Fee is payable;
if cancellation occurs after you have submitted a draft or proof of any deliverable, Vamp will pay you a Kill Fee equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Payment for the relevant Brief; and
if cancellation occurs after all content has been produced and approved (or Deemed Approved), Vamp will pay you one hundred percent (100%) of the Payment.
The Kill Fee payable under clause 11.1 (Kill Fee) represents reasonable compensation for work done and costs incurred by you up to the point of cancellation. The Kill Fee is your sole remedy for cancellation of a Brief by Vamp or the Brand, except in cases of bad faith.
If you wish to withdraw from a Brief after accepting it, you must notify Vamp in writing as soon as practicable. Vamp may in its discretion determine that no Payment is due to you and may remove you from the relevant Brief. Vamp will consider the circumstances of your withdrawal in good faith, including where the Brief has been materially altered from what was originally presented to you.
If you have a dispute in relation to any Payment or the timing of a Payment, you must notify Vamp in writing, setting out the nature of the dispute and the amount in question.
Vamp will acknowledge your notice within five (5) business days and will appoint a nominated contact to manage the resolution of the dispute.
Vamp will use its reasonable endeavours to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days of receiving your notice.
If the dispute cannot be resolved within thirty (30) days, either party may escalate to formal dispute resolution in accordance with clause 13.
Despite any other provision of this agreement, if a party is unable to perform or is delayed in performing an obligation under this agreement by reason of a Force Majeure Event:
that obligation is suspended but only so far and for so long as it is affected by the Force Majeure Event; and
the affected party will not be responsible for any loss or expense suffered or incurred by any other party as a result of, and to the extent that, the affected party is unable to perform or is delayed in performing its obligations because of the Force Majeure Event.
No forbearance or delay by Vamp in exercising or enforcing its rights under the Agreement shall prejudice or restrict the rights of Vamp to exercise or enforce its rights at a later time and no waiver of any such rights or of any breach of any contractual terms shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other right or of any later breach. Vamp may only waive a right under the Agreement by doing so in writing.
Vamp may assign its rights under the Agreement by notice to you.
The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement will not affect any other rights or remedies available to either party.
If any provision of the Agreement is unenforceable, illegal or void, that provision is severed and the other provisions of this Agreement remain in force.
The Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the relevant Jurisdiction. Each party irrevocably agrees to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Jurisdiction over any claim or matter arising under or in connection with the Agreement (whether in contract or in tort).
Clauses 14, 15 and 16 apply where the Jurisdiction applicable to the Agreement is Australia.
Privacy Law means the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth);
Privacy Policy means Vamp's privacy policy found at http://visualamplifiers.com/talent/privacy/; and
Personal Information has the meaning given to that term in the Privacy Law.
Where you provide Information to Vamp, and such Information constitutes Personal Information, Vamp does not usually, but may disclose that Personal Information to certain third parties in accordance with the Privacy Law. Otherwise, Vamp will abide by its Privacy Policy.
For the avoidance of doubt, in relation to clause 5.4 of the Terms and Conditions, Vamp will pay you an additional amount as required by Law on top of the Payment on account of GST.
Code means the Therapeutic Goods (Therapeutic Goods Advertising Code) Instrument 2021, and as amended from time to time;
TGA means the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989 (Cth) as amended from time to time.
To the extent that the TGA and/or Code applies to any of the Services delivered under this Agreement, including but not limited to:

You warrant and agree that any Services provided by you under this Agreement comply with the TGA and the Code.

You will indemnify, and keep indemnified Vamp, its employees, personnel and agents from and against all claims, liabilities, losses, expenses, including costs payable by Vamp arising directly or indirectly or in any way connected with:
