Photographer agreement

Draft — last updated November 9, 2026.

1. You are the seller

You sell your photos directly to buyers. Buyers pay the photo price directly into your PayPal Business account. MiOla is an intermediation platform: it never receives or holds the money for your photos and does not take anything from your price. MiOla charges buyers a separate service fee for the use of the platform.

2. What you authorize MiOla to do

You authorize MiOla, non-exclusively and worldwide, to display watermarked previews of the photos you upload, to promote them on the site, and to deliver the full-resolution files to buyers who paid you. You keep the copyright and can sell your photos anywhere else.

3. License to the buyer

Each sale grants the buyer, on your behalf, a non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual license for personal use (keeping, printing, personal social media). Commercial use requires your separate permission.

4. Your price

You set the price per photo within the platform range (today US$2 to US$5). Photos are sold one by one and the platform's progressive volume discount applies to every sale, set by MiOla and the same for all photographers.

5. PayPal account

You must keep an active PayPal Business account able to receive USD, confirmed by MiOla (for example with a US$1 test payment). If the account cannot receive payments, your photos are not offered for sale. PayPal fees for receiving payments are yours.

6. Taxes

You are responsible for your own taxes and obligations as the seller of your photos.

7. Refunds and disputes

If a buyer asks for a refund because they are not in the photo or the file is defective, MiOla will notify you. You agree to answer within 3 days and, if the request is valid, to refund the buyer from your PayPal. If you do not answer, MiOla reviews the case and may stop offering your photos. Disputes and chargebacks on your PayPal payments are handled between you and PayPal.

8. Authorship and responsibility

You confirm that you are the author of the photos, that they were taken in public places, and that they do not contain nudity, minors in compromising situations or anything illegal. You are responsible for claims about the content of your photos.

9. Removal and retention

You can hide or delete your sessions at any time. Unsold photos are deleted automatically after 30 days. MiOla may remove photos after a removal request from the person pictured. Licenses already sold remain valid.

10. Termination

Either party can end this agreement at any time. Buyers keep access to files they already bought for the download period.
