These Artist Terms & Conditions (“Agreement”) govern the relationship between you as a performer or representative (“Artist”, “you”) and ShowMaker Enterprise (“Company”, “we”, “us”), trading as Showmaker Events, in connection with registration, profile materials, and participation in our artist directory and related workflows on www.showmaker.in and linked Showmaker properties (the “Platform”).
Principal address: 2, 2nd main 8th anepalaya, Bengaluru — 560030, Karnataka, India. By submitting an application, profile, or media pack — or by instructing us to publish materials on your behalf — you accept this Agreement.
Section 1Artist registration
You may register in your own name or through an authorised manager or agency, provided we can verify authority where needed. Everything you supply — credits, fee indications, travel constraints, tech riders — should be accurate, current, and not misleading.
Showmaker Events curates its roster for fit, safety, and brand alignment with the corporate programmes we deliver. We may accept or decline a submission, or pause a listing, without owing a detailed explanation, though we will usually share practical feedback when helpful.
Section 2Content submission & editorial review
You (or your representative) may provide showreels, stills, biographies, repertoire notes, and technical details. Our team may review materials for clarity, production suitability, and consistency with how Showmaker Events presents talent to enterprise buyers.
We might suggest light edits — tighter copy, safer file naming, or thumbnail crops — before publication. Where you ask us to help format or upload assets, that assistance is administrative only and does not transfer ownership or creative control to us.
Section 3Content ownership & licence to display
You remain the owner of your submitted content, including photographs, footage, audio, and written descriptions, except where third-party rights are clearly credited per your instructions.
ShowMaker Enterprise does not claim copyright over your materials. By submitting them, you grant Showmaker Events a non-exclusive, royalty-free, revocable licence to host, reproduce, and display that content solely to market your act, respond to client enquiries, and operate the Platform — not for unrelated products or resale of your assets.
Section 4Directory listing & internal quality signals
Approved profiles may appear on paths such as /artists and category or location views we maintain. From time to time we apply an internal quality signal (based on materials supplied and, where applicable, delivery feedback from past engagements with us).
Any internal rating is subjective and non-binding. It is not an endorsement, certification, league table, or guarantee of future bookings.
Section 5Visibility, enquiries & booking path
Profiles are shown to corporate buyers for information and enquiry purposes. Showmaker Events does not guarantee impressions, leads, shortlists, or confirmed engagements.
When a client expresses interest, our bookings team will usually reach you (or your representative) to confirm availability, repertoire, and commercial terms. You remain free to decline any opportunity; there is no obligation to accept a brief simply because it was introduced via the Platform.
Section 6Non‑exclusivity
Listing with Showmaker Events is non-exclusive. You may work with other agencies, bureaus, or platforms unless you have signed a separate written exclusivity agreement with us that expressly says otherwise.
Nothing in this Agreement makes Showmaker Events your exclusive representative, manager, or agent — again, except where a distinct contract states that in clear terms.
Section 7Profile maintenance & takedowns
You are responsible for keeping performance descriptions, fee bands (if published), travel limits, and safety notes accurate. Outdated technical specs can disrupt live shows; please flag material changes promptly.
To amend or remove your profile, email hola@showmaker.in from an address we recognise on file. We will action reasonable requests within a commercially practicable timeframe.
Section 8Use of name, likeness & affiliation
Showmaker Events will not describe you as exclusively signed, managed, or “house talent” unless a written agreement says so. Directory pages are formatted for corporate discovery, not to imply formal partnership beyond the fact of listing.
Where we feature you in pitch decks, sizzle reels, or anonymised capability decks for clients, we will align usage with the display licence in section 3 and seek additional consent if we ever propose something beyond ordinary roster marketing.
Section 9Legal compliance & indemnity
You confirm that content you supply is either owned by you or licensed to you with rights sufficient for us to exercise the display licence above. You will not upload material that infringes intellectual property, portrait rights, or privacy of others.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless ShowMaker Enterprise, Showmaker Events, and their personnel from claims, losses, or liabilities arising from breach of these representations, misuse of third-party content, or misstatement of your credentials.
Section 10Changes to these terms
We may update this Agreement periodically to reflect legal, insurance, or operational changes. The “Last updated” date above will move when we publish a revision. Where changes are material, we will also endeavour to notify active listed artists by email. Continued use of the Platform after updates — including keeping your listing live — counts as acceptance of the revised terms to the extent permitted under Indian law.
Section 11Governing law & jurisdiction
This Agreement is governed by the laws of India. Subject to mandatory protections that cannot be waived, courts at Bengaluru, Karnataka shall have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from or related to these Artist Terms.
Section 12Contact
For questions about this Agreement, profile corrections, or urgent takedown requests, write to our artist desk at hola@showmaker.in.
A separate Privacy policy explains how we handle personal data across Showmaker services.
