Types of user and relationships between them
There are three types of users of our Platform:
(1) the agency acting on behalf of Talent (Agents);
(2) performers, creatives and crew – such as, but not limited to, actors, voice artists, dancers, presenters, models, writers, directors, casting directors, as well as other cast and crew, or anyone else that an Agent represents and invites to engage with Agents via the Platform (Talent); and
(3) casting directors who use our platform, including but not limited to the Yes/No feature to update Agents and Talent when the casting status of a role has changed (Casting Directors).
Together the three types of users are Users. These Terms apply to all Users. Not all services and part of the Platform are available to all types of User. For example, Talent can only use parts of the Platform once they accept an invitation from an Agent, which may be sent via the Platform.
Users may have pre-existing legal or other relationships between them, for example the agency relationship between an Agent and the Talent they invite to use the platform. The Platform is not designed to enable the conclusion of any legal or other agreement or relationship and does not facilitate this. You are advised to ensure that any negotiation, agreement or proof of acceptance of terms between you and another User; verification of identity, qualifications, entitlement or status; or any formalities necessary for the relationship between you and another User, is concluded separately and outside of the Platform. Without limitation, Agents are responsible for the management of Talent’s personal information via the Agent’s use of the Platform and for any permissions, consents or grants of rights (including rights in copyright, related rights, image rights and trade mark rights) to use, edit, share or otherwise communicate any content received from Talent via the Platform. Talent agrees that we are not responsible for any use by an Agent of Talent’s self-tapes or other material or data by Agents to whom Talent has submitted the same. We are not responsible for the terms of any agreement concluded via the Platform, nor the absence of any agreement.
Agents may send information to or receive information from Talent via the Platform. If Talent ceases to work with an Agent, or otherwise objects to the Agent’s retention or use of any information received from or relating to Talent, the Agent is responsible for ensuring that they have a continuing right to keep possession of any such information or for deleting such information and for marking the Talent as an ex-client. All Users acknowledge that we shall not be responsible for assessing any legal claim or right that a User may have to continued access to, or deletion of, information or persons. All Users agree that we shall not be responsible for any breach of contract, tort or any other liability of or related to Users that may result from a User’s retention or deletion of any data received via the Platform from other Users.
Services available and our agreement
Tagmin makes certain services available through the Platform (including but not limited to TagTapes, TagVoice, TagExtras, TagProjects, TagTexts, TagRep, TagWeb and Yes/No) (Services). Some Services are available only to certain categories of Users. Your use of any of these Services is subject to these Terms.
For paid services, the services available to you, any restrictions on the use of the services (such, for example, the maximum number of users) and the subscription fees, are agreed via the online order or application form hosted on the Site, or via another form or summary of terms sent to you by Tagmin which expressly states that it is to form an agreement for use of the Services (the Order Form). A record of the details you submit via the Order Form will be sent to you at the email address that you input into the Order Form, which may be in the form of our invoice.
By clicking to accept these Terms when purchasing or subscribing to our Services or by accessing the Platform and, if applicable, using the Services, you will be deemed to have understood and accepted these Terms which form a binding agreement between you and us.
All Services forming part of your subscription, including any technical support, are provided only to you and not to any third party, except as explicitly stated otherwise. Technical support is made available to Agents only.

- not transfer personal data outside of the United Kingdom or European Economic Area without ensuring that such transfers comply with applicable data protection laws; and
- provide the controller with information (upon request and no more than once per year) demonstrating our compliance with the obligations detailed within (i) – (x).

In addition to and notwithstanding any restrictions noted above, the extraction, copying or reuse of any Platform Content, data or other information from the Platform or Services by any automated system, software, manual process or otherwise, for use in other sites, applications or systems is strictly prohibited. You shall not engage in such acts or activity, nor authorise or facilitate others in relation to the same, without our express written permission which will be subject to further written terms.
Subscription term, renewal and prices
You can choose to pay for subscriptions to Services on either a monthly or yearly basis. Regardless of how you choose to pay, all subscriptions to Services carry an initial one year term (the Initial Period) and cannot be cancelled within that Initial Period. At the end of the Initial Period the subscription will continue automatically for either additional monthly or additional annual periods (each an Additional Period) depending on whether you pay monthly or annually. You can terminate your subscription with effect from the end of the Initial Period or any Additional Period by giving us at least 30 days’ notice via the cancellation process set out on the Platform. There will be no refunds or credits for partial months of service, a reduction in your number of users, or refunds for months unused.
We may change the price of the Services at any time by prior notice to you (which may be via the Platform). Any new price will be applicable to you at the start of the next Additional Period following the notification.
Payment Terms
Payment for subscriptions must be made in accordance with the selected plan. Prices and features for subscription plans are subject to change in accordance with these Payment Terms. Notice of any price changes will be provided to you in advance, and you will have the option to change or cancel your subscription if you do not agree with the new pricing in accordance with these Payment Terms.
Changes to a subscription plan, such as adding additional users, will result in an immediate adjustment to the subscription fee on the date of access to the new plan and its features. If the adjustment results in the subscription fee being lowered, a credit may be issued (at the Company’s discretion) and this can be used against future purchases.
We may, from time to time, adjust the allocation of features and capabilities among different subscription tiers. We will make reasonable efforts to provide advance notice to you of any material changes which affect you.
We require payment of the whole of the price for the Services that you order before your order can be accepted, either by payment in full, or by setting up a valid Direct Debit or SEPA mandate or recurring card payment. It is not our policy to offer credit accounts for payments. Please do not be offended if we refuse your request.
You will be charged in the currency indicated at the checkout and payment will be expected in that currency. We are not responsible for any additional fees your own bank may charge.
We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Diners Card, debit card, CHAPS, Direct Debit, SEPA and bank transfer. If we need to refund you for any reason, we will submit the refund to the payment method on which the order was placed.
Once you have submitted your payment details, your order will automatically proceed and we will not be able to stop the payment going through at this stage. Should you have any concerns regarding a payment that has been sent through for processing, please contact us.
If you receive an invoice from us, or receive a Service from us without paying in advance or on the day, the payment terms will be stated on the invoice, if applicable, or payment will be due immediately. We reserve the right not to provide you with additional Services, even if a deposit or full payment has been made, until all due payments have been received.
Tagmin reserves the right to charge interest monthly in accordance with the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 for late settlement of accounts from the due date up to the receipt of payment. We may also seek to recover any related debt collection agency costs.
You can also pay your subscription fee by Direct Debit, or by recurring card payment in the form of a Continuous Payment Authority (CPA). The terms of your payment method may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, debit/credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen payment method.
Direct Debit and SEPA
Once your Direct Debit or SEPA is set up, your subscription fee will be automatically paid until you cancel your mandate. If you do not wish to continue paying by Direct Debit or SEPA, you must contact your bank and ask them to cancel the mandate, and you must also contact us to arrange for an alternative payment method. Please note, this will not automatically cancel your subscription, which may continue until cancelled in accordance with these Terms.
Direct Debit and SEPA instructions are managed by GoCardless. You can view their terms here: https://gocardless.com/legal/.
We reserve the right to remove or refuse, for any reason whatsoever and at any time, the ability for you to choose to pay by Direct Debit or SEPA.
It is important that you keep your email address for Direct Debit/SEPA communications up to date.
Recurring card payments
If you purchase a subscription using a debit or credit card on a recurring basis, also referred to as a Continuous Payment Authority (CPA), you agree that we and/or our authorised service providers may store your payment information which may include tokenised card details. By choosing this payment method you authorise us to set up and use CPA as the payment method using the details you have provided, and you give us authority to renew your subscription on a continuous basis until otherwise notified.
We reserve the right to make price changes to future subscription fees. This will not affect your payments already made. We will always notify you of any changes in fees in advance of your annual or monthly subscription renewal.
