Easy Render is an online web application that connects 3d artists to the clients who require their services. A 3d artist (“the Artist”) is defined herein as a person or entity capable of producing 3d images of the unbuilt based on instructions from a Client. A client (“the Client”) is defined herein as a person or entity looking to commission an Artist to produce 3d images of the unbuilt and subsequently purchase them. Clients could include architectural practices, real estate firms, engineering practices, interior design firms, etc. This online web application (“the Site”) aims to bring Artists and Clients together and facilitate the offer, job acquisition, collaboration, image transfer and payment processes between the two parties.
The use of the Site is supported by the following key documents, known in their entirety as “the Supporting Documentation”: the Services Description document; the Terms and Conditions of Use document; the Data Privacy Policy document; and the Image Transfer Agreement document. The Supporting Documentation should be read, considered and abided by in their entirety, by both Client and Artists.
The additional terms introduced below are used extensively within the Supporting Documentation; their meaning is as defined below unless otherwise stated. “The User” is used herein to refer to any user of the Site, and can refer to the Artist and/or the Client. For simplicity only, all Users will be referred to herein through use of the masculine singular form; but the term User is intended to cover both the masculine and feminine form and both the singular and pluralised form, as required.“The Winning Artist” is used herein to define the Artist selected by the Client during the tender process; the Client will interact exclusively with the Winning Artist to produce the Images that the Client will ultimately purchase from the Winning Artist.“The Images” is used herein to refer to the 3d images produced by the Winning Artist in line with the Client’s requirements for ultimate sale to the Client himself.“The Client/Artist Agreement” is used herein to define the job agreement between the Client and the Winning Artist, based on the job details posted by the Client and the offer made by the Winning Artist during the tender process.
Easy Render is intended to be used by Users as described by provision 1.4 of this Services Description document; Easy Render accepts no responsibility if the Site fails to work as described herein or if the User fails to use the Site as described herein: The Client creates and advertises their job on the Site’s job board using the Site’s job form; The job form requests the relevant job details, which may include: the total number of Images (both of the exterior and the interior) required by the Client, the provision of a possible model by the Client (yes or no), the model’s complexity (easy, moderate or complex), the model’s size (small, medium or large), the Image style, the deadline for the delivery of the Images and the duration of the job tender process (from 1 to 7 days); All interested Artists submit an offer to tender based on the job details posted on the Site’s job board by the Client; The Client receives and evaluates all the offers made by interested Artists, including their portfolios; The Client can select a Winning Artist and assign the job to that Artist. Upon selecting the Winning Artist the Client is requested to upload the detailed project files to the Site; these detailed project files can be viewed only by the Winning Artist; The Winning Artist reviews the uploaded detailed project files and decides whether to confirm or decline his offer given the additional information now available; If the Winning Artist declines his offer he will be denied further access to the detailed project files and is required by Easy Render’s Terms and Conditions of Use to delete all copies of said detailed project files in his possession. The Winning Artist will be required to confirm this action; If the (first) Winning Artist declines his offer then the Client is alerted and can select a second Winning Artist, who will, in turn, be granted access to the uploaded detailed project files in order to confirm or decline his offer; If no Winning Artist confirms his offer, then the Client can delete his open job tender from the Site’s job board and create a new one; starting the tender process afresh; Once a Winning Artist confirms his offer, the Client is prompted to deposit the agreed fee through Easy Render’s third party professional payment platform. Upon receipt of this fee by Easy Render, a collaboration page is created, linking the Client to the Winning Artist; In confirming his offer, the Winning Artist must agree to the Client/Artist Agreement and to the Image Transfer Agreement; the Client must also agree to the same two documents, namely the Client/Artist Agreement and the Image Transfer Agreement, and does so prior to payment of the agreed fee to Easy Render. Both agreements are detailed in Easy Render’s Supporting Documentation; The Client/Artist Agreement confirms that both the Client and the Winning Artist agree to work to the terms set out during the relevant job tender process and further abide by Easy Render’s Supporting Documentation, including Easy Render’s Terms and Conditions of Use document; whilst the Image Transfer Agreement allows for the transfer of the necessary intellectual property rights for the relevant Images from the Winning Artist to the Client upon job closure;The collaboration page has been specifically designed by Easy Render to allow the Client and the Winning Artist to collaborate on the job; all work and communication between the Client and Winning Artist takes place through this collaboration page;For ease of reference, the collaboration page will contain links to the relevant job documentation (which may include the Client’s ID, the Artist’s ID, the job form completed by the Client, the detailed project files uploaded by the Client, the Winning Artist’s offer, the Winning Artist’s portfolio, etc.); this job documentation is expected to form the basis for the Client/Artist Agreement; When the Client is satisfied that an Image on the collaboration page has been completed as per the Client/Artist Agreement, then the Client may mark each individual Image as completed; once the required number of Images has been marked as completed by the Client, the entire job is deemed as completed and both the Client and the Winning Artist are notified; The Winning Artist will produce and make available for transfer the Images (in a final high resolution format) that were marked as completed by the Client on the relevant collaboration page. The Client will be shown a preview of these Images to confirm that they are indeed those marked as completed by the Client on the collaboration page; if they are the same Images, then the Client marks the job as closed; and once the job has been marked as closed the Client can download the final high resolution Images and the Winning Artist is paid.
These Terms and Conditions of Use apply to all Users of the Site, whether they be Clients or Artists. “The User” is used herein to refer to any user of the Site, and can refer to the Artist and/or the Client. For simplicity only, all Users will be referred to herein through use of the masculine singular form; but the term User is intended to cover both the masculine and feminine form and both the singular and pluralised form, as required.“The Artist” is defined herein as a person or entity capable of producing 3d images of the unbuilt based on instructions from a Client. “The Client” is defined herein as a person or entity looking to commission an Artist to produce 3d images of the unbuilt and subsequently purchase them. Clients could include architectural practices, real estate firms, engineering practices, interior design firms, etc. “The Site” refers to Easy Render; a web application looking to bring together Artists and Clients and facilitate the offer, job acquisition, collaboration, image transfer and payment processes between the two parties. “The Images” is used herein to refer to the 3d images produced by the Winning Artist in line with the Client’s requirements for ultimate sale to the Client himself.

In terminating the Site, Easy Render will endeavour, where possible, to ensure that all job collaborations are closed. Where Easy Render terminates the Site prior to the closure of all jobs, Easy Render can, but solely for those jobs not yet closed, either provide the relevant Client with a Full Refund, or put the relevant Client in direct contact with the relevant Winning Artist, in which case the relevant Client is provided a Full Refund less Easy Render’s commission; a Full Refund is as defined under provision 3.10.b. of this Terms and Conditions of Use document. The termination of the Site and/or a User’s account does not in any way void these Terms and Conditions of Use document, except for those provisions that grant access and use of the Site to the User; similarly, the termination of the Site and/or a User’s account does not in any way void Easy Render’s Data Privacy Policy document or Easy Render’s Image Transfer Agreement document, both of which remain fully binding and enforceable.

The Client/Artist Agreement is solely and fully between the Client and the Winning Artist; Easy Render is not a party to the Client/Artist Agreement and accepts no responsibility for any loss whatsoever in anyway emerging from the Client/Artist Agreement as incurred by either or both parties to the Client/Artist Agreement. Easy Render is responsible solely for the payment of refunds to the Client, but only as outlined under section 4.4. of these Terms and Conditions of Use. As such, Easy Render will play a role in dispute resolution as outlined in section 3.11; although it is here understood that this role is as a last resort.
The Client hereby agrees to complete the job form as accurately and in as detailed a manner as possible; and for the details on the job form to honestly represent the detailed project files the Client will later share with the Winning Artist. The Artist hereby agrees to make an honest offer (on the back of the details contained in the relevant job form), which the Artist will later endeavour to uphold, so long as he is selected as the Winning Artist and the detailed project files do not materially differ from the job form details on which the Winning Artist’s offer is based. The detailed project files are uploaded to the Site by the Client and shared exclusively with the Winning Artist who, regardless of whether he agrees to confirm or decline his offer, hereby further agrees not to create and/or keep any personal copies of the detailed project files.
The Client/Artist Agreement is signed by both the Client and the Winning Artist prior to the creation of the collaboration page; in signing the Client/Artist Agreement both parties agree to uphold the Client/Artist Agreement and to be held fully responsible by the other party should they fail to uphold the Client/Artist Agreement for whatever reason; Easy Render is in no way to be held responsible by any party for any loss whatsoever incurred by any party should one or both parties to the Client/Artist Agreement fail to uphold the Client/Artist Agreement. The Client/Artist Agreement reads as follows, but the User should note that were the Client/Artist Agreement on the collaboration page to differ from that stated below in these Terms and Conditions of Use, then the Client/Artist Agreement as stated on the collaboration page is the wording deemed as binding between the Client and the Winning Artist: “The Winning Artist and the Client hereby agree to collaborate as per the provisions set out in Easy Render’s Terms and Conditions of Use document; and for the Artist and Client to perform this job in accordance with the job details agreed by both parties during the job tender process and evidenced in the documents referenced on the collaboration page. The Artist and the Client hereby also agree to collaborate with honesty and integrity; and to refrain from dispute, unnecessary changes and avoidable delays.”
A collaboration page is created on the Site once the Winning Artist has confirmed his offer following the viewing of the detailed project files and the Client has subsequently transferred the required payment to Easy Render; but only if both parties have agreed to both the Client/Artist Agreement and the Image Transfer Agreement. The collaboration page can be accessed solely by the Client, the Winning Artist and Easy Render, and will contain the Client/Artist Agreement and a link to any documentation as relevant to the job (which may include the Client’s ID, the Artist’s ID, the job form completed by the Client, the detailed project files uploaded by the Client, the Winning Artist’s offer, the Winning Artist’s portfolio, etc.); this job documentation will determine the job criteria (such as Image quality, Image quantity, deadline, fee, etc.) on which the Client/Artist Agreement is based. If the Winning Artist does not confirm his offer following the viewing of the detailed project files, then no collaboration page is formed and there is no binding Client/Artist Agreement between the Client and the Winning Artist. Easy Render assumes no responsibility whatsoever if a User, be he a Client or an Artist, fails to secure a Client/Artist Agreement through the use of the Site; whether this failure relates to a single specific job or whether this failure extends across the entire life of the User’s account.
In signing the Client/Artist Agreement, the Client and the Winning Artist agree to perform all their work and all their communication exclusively through the collaboration page; the collaboration page will hence act as a record of the work performed and the conversations had and can be used by either party (Client and/or Artist) in supporting job completion and/or job closure. Both the Client and the Winning Artist hereby agree to use the collaboration page responsibly and with integrity.
As the Client is satisfied with an Image as it appears on the collaboration page, the Client must mark that Image as completed; the entire job is deemed as completed once the Client has marked the required number of Images (as per the Client/Artist Agreement) as completed. Client satisfaction with an Image, in terms of determining whether or not that Image should be marked as completed, must be drawn in accordance with the relevant Client/Artist Agreement; the Client hereby agrees to be reasonable in assessing his satisfaction with an Image in terms of Image completion.
Once the entire job has been deemed as completed, the Winning Artist will prepare final high resolution versions of those Images marked as completed by the Client on the collaboration page. The Client will be granted a (low resolution) preview of these Images so that the Client may confirm that they are the same Images that the Client marked as completed on the collaboration page; if this is the case, that is, if the Images presented in the preview are the same Images marked as completed by the Client on the collaboration page, then the Client must mark the job as closed. Both the Client and the Winning Artist hereby agree that job closure is a prerequisite for the Client to be able to download the final high resolution Images and for the Winning Artist to be paid his fee; given no unforeseen circumstances (to be defined exclusively and within reason by Easy Render) the Winning Artist will be paid his fee within 10 working days of job closure. A closed job can not be re-opened by either the Client or the Winning Artist; this is to mean that once a job is marked as closed by the Client, no further collaboration is allowed between the Client and the Winning Artist, save through the creation of a new and separate Client/Artist Agreement; it is the Client’s responsibility to ensure his satisfaction with the final high resolution Images during the preview and prior to job closure, and the Client bears full responsibility for all and any losses whatsoever incurred as a result of early and/or unsatisfactory job closure on behalf of the Client. Following job closure, the collaboration page, its files, messages, marks and images are deleted. The high resolution images will be accessible by the relevant parties (the Client, the Winning Artist and Easy Render) through their User accounts, but only for a finite period of time as deemed reasonable exclusively by Easy Render. It is fully and solely the User’s responsibility to ensure he has obtained and made backups of the final high resolution images.
Any mid-term changes to an existing Client/Artist Agreement resulting in a change in the fee already paid by the Client are not allowed under that existing Client/Artist Agreement; whether the request for these changes originates from the Client, the Winning Artist or both parties. Major mid-term changes to an existing Client/Artist Agreement resulting in an increase in the fee already paid by the Client are allowed solely through the creation of a new and additional Client/Artist Agreement designed to cover the major mid-term changes only and the resulting fee increase. The original Client/Artist Agreement remains in force with the additional Client/Artist Agreement bridging the gap once the relevant fee increase is paid to Easy Render; this additional Client/Artist Agreement can be signed, at the Client’s discretion, either by the Client and the original Winning Artist or by the Client and a separate Winning Artist, and in no way affects the existing Client/Artist Agreement. Major mid-term changes to an existing Client/Artist Agreement resulting in a decrease and/or total cancellation of the fee already paid by the Client are not allowed under any circumstances; even given agreement between both the Client and the Winning Artist. Minor mid-term changes to an existing Client/Artist Agreement not resulting in a change in the fee already paid by the Client are allowed; provided that these minor mid-term changes are discussed and evidenced on the collaboration page; and that both the Client and the Winning Artist agree to these minor mid-term changes and the fact that these minor mid-term changes do not result in any increase or decrease in the paid fee.
Early termination or cancellation of a Client/Artist Agreement is not allowed under any circumstances, even where both the Client and the Winning Artist are in agreement over the early termination or cancellation of the Client/Artist Agreement; both the Client and the Winning Artist must perform as per the Client/Artist Agreement and see the Client/Artist Agreement through to job closure, with both parties singing the Image Transfer Agreement document, the Client downloading the final high resolution Images and the Winning Artist receiving his payment.
Job closure on behalf of the Client is a prerequisite for the Client to be able to download the final high resolution Images and for the Winning Artist to be paid his fee. If the Client maintains, within reason and with irrefutable evidence at hand, that the Winning Artist has failed to perform in line with the Client/Artist Agreement, then the Client may proceed as follows: (a) Where the Winning Artist has delivered the required Images on time and these Images are of a comparable level of quality to that agreed in the Client/Artist Agreement and/or that advertised in the Winning Artist’s portfolio, but the Client is not satisfied with the service provided by the Winning Artist, the Client is required nonetheless to close the job, with the Client gaining access to the download of the final high resolution Images and the Winning Artist getting paid in full; the Client may however decide to feedback on the service provided by the Winning Artist and Easy Render may then, fully and solely at Easy Render’s discretion, but within reason, decide to issue a warning and/or a temporary or permanent ban to the Winning Artist; or (b) Where the Winning Artist has failed to deliver the required Images on time and/or has delivered the required Images at a level of quality that is clearly and without doubt not in line with that agreed in the Client/Artist Agreement and/or that advertised in the Winning Artist’s portfolio, then the Client may decide, within reason, whether or not to close the job; if the Client requires the download of the final high resolution Images, then the Client must close the job regardless of Image timeliness and/or Image quality and proceed as per provision 3.10. (a) in these Terms and Conditions of Use; if however the Client does not require the download of the final high resolution Images, then the Client may decide, within reason, not to close the job. Where the Client decides, within reason, not to close the job, but solely as a result of provision 3.10. (b) as set out in these Terms and Conditions of Use, then the Client may request a Full Refund, which is defined herein as the full payment received by Easy Render from the Client less the refund fee held by the third party professional payment platform (note that Braintree is the third party professional payment platform currently used by Easy Render and the refund fee of 15 euros currently charged by Braintree may change at any time and for any reason and solely and fully at Braintree’s discretion); following a Full Refund, the Client surrenders all past, present and future claims whatsoever to any work performed by the Winning Artist under the relevant Client/Artist Agreement, including any Images marked as completed by the Client on the relevant collaboration page; this work remains the full and exclusive property of the Winning Artist, who is however not entitled to any form of payment and/or remuneration for any work performed under the relevant Client/Artist Agreement. Provision 3.10. (b) of these Terms and Conditions of Use must be exercised by the Client within reason and with integrity; where the Winning Artist believes that provision 3.10. (b) of these Terms and Conditions of Use has been unreasonably exercised by the Client, then the Winning Artist may feedback on the Client’s behaviour and Easy Render may, fully and solely at Easy Render’s discretion, but within reason, decide to issue a warning and/or a temporary or permanent ban to the Client.
In signing the Client/Artist Agreement both the Client and the Winning Artist hereby agree that Easy Render is under no obligation to get involved in dispute resolution; it is solely and fully between the Winning Artist and the Client who are party to a given Client/Artist Agreement to determine whether or not the relevant Client/Artist Agreement has been adequately met, and whether and when the relevant job should be closed. However, as Easy Render is responsible for the payment of refunds to the Client, but solely as outlined under section 4.4. of these Terms and Conditions of Use, Easy Render will get involved in dispute resolution, but only ever as a last resort in the instance where the Client and the Winning Artist fail to reach a consensus. Where Easy Render is forced to intervene in dispute resolution, then Easy Render’s decision is final and will be based, to the best of Easy Render’s knowledge and ability, solely on the details as set out in the relevant Client/Artist Agreement. Disputes will either resolve into a Full Refund for the Client or due payment to the Winning Artist, as detailed under section 4.4. Furthermore, Easy Render retains access to the collaboration page at all times and may, solely and fully at Easy Render’s discretion, but within reason, issue a warning and/or a temporary or permanent ban to either or both parties to the Client/Artist Agreement if Easy Render deems this necessary, for example, but not exclusively, as a result of enforcing provision 3.10. of these Terms and Conditions of Use.
This Image Transfer Agreement document relates to the sale and transfer of the intellectual property rights pertaining to those Images marked as completed by the Client on the relevant collaboration page, as they appear on the collaboration page, and which were created by the Winning Artist for the Client in line with the relevant Client/Artist Agreement assigned by both parties (these Images are referred to herein as the “Final Images”). This Image Transfer Agreement hereby transfers the intellectual property rights of the Final Images from the Winning Artist to the Client, allowing the Client to use and distribute the Final Images solely and fully at their discretion; in transferring the intellectual property rights of the Final Images to the Client, this Image Transfer Agreement allows the Winning Artist to use the Final Images in his portfolio (the Artist can only use the Final Images to showcase his portfolio) and Easy Render to use the Final Images fully and solely at Easy Render’s discretion.
The parties to this Image Transfer Agreement are those same parties who are party to the Client/Artist Agreement covering the Final Images whose intellectual property rights are to be transferred through this Image Transfer Agreement; that is, the Client and the Winning Artist. This Image Transfer Agreement will apply to both parties in their capacity as either the Client or the Winning Artist. If this Image Transfer Agreement in any way covers a Final Image(s) which is not fully and solely the creation of the Winning Artist who is a signing party to this Image Transfer Agreement, then the Winning Artist hereby confirms that he has the authority necessary to transfer the intellectual property rights pertaining to said Final Image(s) to the Client who is a signing party to this Image Transfer Agreement; and the Winning Artist accepts any inherent liability in whatsoever form attached to the transfer of intellectual property rights, use and distribution of these Final Image(s). Easy Render is not a signing party to this Image Transfer Agreement and accepts no responsibility and/or liability for any loss whatsoever as emerging from this Image Transfer Agreement and incurred by any party, whether signing or non-signing; this in no way negates the benefits due to Easy Render under provision 1.1. of this Image Transfer Agreement document. Easy Render can not guarantee that both parties will sign this Image Transfer Agreement document, nor force either party to sign this Image Transfer Agreement document.
This Image Transfer Agreement is part of a suite of documents (referred to herein as the Supporting Documentation) and should be considered in conjunction with the entirety of the Supporting Documentation.
The Image Transfer Agreement is signed by both parties prior to starting on a job collaboration and is binding from the instant the relevant job collaboration is marked as closed; regardless of any issues either party may have following job closure. A binding Image Transfer Agreement can in no way later be voided, including following Site termination and any instances where either or both parties to the Image Transfer Agreement: violate any of the provisions detailed within Easy Render’s Supporting Documentation; violate the Image Transfer agreement itself; delete their User account; have their User account terminated by the Site; etc. If the job is not marked as closed, and then solely by invoking provision 3.10.
