Photographer Program

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern participation in the Giraffe360 Official Photographer Program (“Program”). By joining the Program, you (“Photographer”) agree to these Terms, which supplement and incorporate by reference Giraffe360’s Terms of Service (“ToS”) and any other applicable Giraffe360 policies and notices. Any capitalized terms used in these Terms have the meanings given to them in the ToS.

1. Program’s objectives

The Program is designed for Giraffe360 clients (Photographers) who wish to collaborate with Giraffe360 to stand out in the market and provide a wider range of quality services to end clients. Participation in the Program is entirely voluntary and free of charge for the first 12 months from the date of initial enrollment. Photographers may withdraw from the Program at any time. While Giraffe360 aims for the Program to be mutually beneficial, it makes no guarantees, representations, or warranties regarding any specific outcomes, including but not limited to lead generation, revenue, or business growth.

2. Eligibility

To join the Program, the Photographer must be a Giraffe360 Client based in the US, capture at least five (5) Projects per month using the Giraffe360 Service, and accept these Terms. The Client must be using the Giraffe360 Service as a photographer providing services to real estate agents or other end clients. Existing Clients who subscribed to the Giraffe360 Service before April 29, 2025, may join the Program with a two (2) Project subscription plan.

3. Exclusivity

3.1 Subject to availability and compliance with these Terms, Photographers are eligible to claim up to two (2) ZIP codes per active Camera Subscription for exclusive representation for a period of twelve (12) months.

3.2 Upon approval of exclusivity for the claimed ZIP codes, the Photographer will be designated as the sole Official Giraffe360 Photographer for those areas. This designation means that lead inquiries received directly by Giraffe360 from clients (e.g., real estate agents) within the exclusive ZIP codes will be referred to the designated Official Photographer. Once claimed, ZIP codes are fixed and may be changed no more than two times per year.

3.3 Photographers may add an additional two (2) ZIP codes per Camera Subscription upon adding additional Giraffe360 Camera Subscription.

3.4 If Giraffe360 receives a lead inquiry from a ZIP code not currently assigned to any Photographer, the opportunity may be referred to an Official Photographer operating in a nearby ZIP code at Giraffe360’s discretion.

3.5 Exclusivity under this Program does not prevent other Giraffe360 Clients (e.g., real estate agents or other photographers) from independently using the Giraffe360 Service within the same ZIP codes.

3.6 Exclusive representation rights do not restrict Official Photographers from serving clients located in other ZIP codes.

3.7 Giraffe360 makes no guarantees regarding the volume of leads, inquiries, or revenue that may result from exclusive designation.

4. Joining the Program

4.1 Photographers who have an active Giraffe360 subscription plan that includes a minimum of five (5) Projects per month are eligible to join the Program and claim their preferred ZIP codes directly via the Giraffe360 Dashboard.

4.2 To claim a ZIP code, the Photographer must navigate to the “ZIP Codes” section under “My Account” in the Dashboard and enter the ZIP codes where they wish to claim exclusivity. If the selected ZIP code is available, the Photographer will receive confirmation through the Dashboard that they have been granted exclusive designation for that area.
