Payment Terms and Conditions:

Once my services have been officially engaged, the agreed fee is payable within 30 days of invoice via Quickbooks (Credit card or Bank Transfer)  Payment via Paypal can be agreed in advance, and  will incur a 6% charge to cover their fees.

Copyright & Intellectual Property:

All prices quoted are pro-rata. All copyrights, intellectual property rights, broadcasts rights and any other rights associated with the author (for clarity, the artist/worker hired by the hiring company) and the author's works and/or performances shall remain with the author. Upon full payment of my invoice, the following license is granted by the author for usage rights of the works listed as follows:

License details:

The author's works may be used by the hiring company for a period as specified on my invoice, unless otherwise stated, upon which time the works shall cease to be used, or an additional usage payment (equal to the usage payment in the original invoice) shall be made to the author. The author's works may only be used for the agreed product or service (and any of the platforms or mediums) detailed in the invoice line-items, and not in any additional products or services in the future, unless otherwise stated.

For the sake of clarity, this also means that the works may never be incorporated into any text-to-speech, synthetic voice or Al Voice models, on any platform or medium, known now, or in the future.

The author's works may only be used in the geographical region as specified in the invoice line-items, unless otherwise stated; if no geographical region is stated then the license specifies that this is the hiring company's country location only. The hiring company may not transfer the works, nor this license to any third parties, (including the sale of the hiring company itself) without the written consent of the author.

Late Payment:

If you think payment could take longer than 30 days, then this must be agreed to in advance.  If outstanding payment exceeds thirty days without prior agreement, there will be a late fee charge of 2% per month for overdue payment

Revisions - Terms and Conditions:

With self-directed sessions (when you will not be listening in to me as I record), I will normally send you a sample to approve, or ask for a reference voice you had in mind in my reels or existing for your project.  Once agreed - if you aren't 100% happy with the submitted recording afterwards, I am happy to attempt again until you are completely satisfied.  If script changes are made after the recording, I will charge a revision fee.  This fee will be proportionate to the extent of the changes made to the script, so feel to raise this before recording takes place if you want to discuss a particular project.

With directed sessions (where you have listened in and provided feedback during the recording), I will give you a copy of every take recorded during the session, so you can pick and choose what you want.  We will have agreed in advance how long the session should be to cover everything in your project, and confirmed a price accordingly.  If the session necessitates going over the agreed time, then I will charge according to my basic studio fee rate of $100  per hour unless verbally agreed during the session. 

Once  you have agreed I can send you an invoice for payment - the project is approved.  Any further changes, either to the script or project, would have to be negotiated and billed as a new order.
