Description of Service
QPX operates a technology platform that enables authorized users in certain locations to locate, find, hire, utilize, and/or request third parties that provide photography services via the authorized user’s telephone or electronic device. Authorized user’s are able to pay for these services through the application through the exchange of credits, purchased prior to the service (“the Service”). The Service may be accessed only by authorized users via a mobile device software application (the “Application” or “QwickPix Application”), certain text-based messaging protocols, and other websites. The Application also utilizes other third-party services for payment processing, text services, email services, and other services (“Channels”). Using these Channels, you may be able to store your payment information, set certain preferences, and other items. QPX does not store your financial information.
QPX is not an issuer, financial institution, or money transmission business. Further QPX is not an employer of the photographers you find, hire, and exchange credits with. QPX is not a photographer or photography service and does not have any control over the photographers, equipment, quality of service, location, behavior, employees, dispatchers, or quality control. QPX only provides a platform to (1) find willing photographers who are authorized users in certain areas who have created an account on the platform, who provide their own photography services, and (2) facilitate the transfer of credits for certain photography services that you request from those users.
Registration
To use the Service, you must first create and register an account (an “Account”) either via an Application, a Website, or another Channel having such functionality. By registering an Account, you represent and warrant that you can enter into a legally binding agreement and that all information submitted by you during registration or otherwise via the Application, Website or other Channel is truthful, complete, and accurate. As part of the registration process you will be required to: (1) associate an email address with your Account (that serves as your username) and establish a password for your Account.

QPX shall not be responsible for any losses arising from the unauthorized use of your Account.
Further, you are responsible for providing and maintaining current, truthful, complete, and accurate information for your Account so long as you continue to use the Service. QPX, in evaluating from time-to-time your registration, Account, and eligibility to continue using the Service, may require you to provide additional information. Additionally, to use some aspects of the application, you may need to provide additional information. QPX reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to reject, suspend or terminate your Account (with or without notice), except as otherwise required by Applicable Laws (as defined below). QPX does not store any of your payment information. Your payment information is provided to third-party vendors who are licensed money transmitters and financial institutions. QPX reserves the right to require you to provide additional information in order to continue using or use the Service.
Transferring Credits for Photography Services
When you use the Service to locate, match, start a session, or find a person to serve as a photographer to complete photography services, you are deemed to have accepted the Service provided by QPX and that photographer. QPX will handle the transfer of credits from your account to the photographer’s account. When you find a photographer who you would like to complete photography services, you or they are able to enter their token (also called “QPCode or QP Photographer ID”) and you begin a photo shoot (“QPSession”) with that person to serve as a photographer. At that moment, you are deemed to have accepted their services and will accept the result of the photography services without any guarantee to the quality, professionalism, or focus of the photos. QPX does not save your photos, they are saved to your own camera roll, but reserves the right to and may do so in the future for future features. Currently, your photos are saved to your own camera roll or storage on your electronic device, and QPX has no access to those photos if deleted or lost. Once the session is complete you agree to allow QPX to transfer to that photographer’s account (or the account corresponding to the QPCode or Token provided) at least one credit for their photography services. Currently, Photography services are valued at 1 credit, but this amount may increase or decrease at any time. Any credits that are transferred for this service are non-refundable. However, you may have additional refund or change-back rights under the card agreement with your card issuer. You should consult the terms and conditions governing your payment card for more information. If you complete a charge-back for services provided to you unlawfully, QPX reserves the right to cease providing you access to your account and to remove your ability to use the Service, or any and all QPX applications. If you are an authorized user and are acting as a photographer, you agree you own none of the photographs taken on the QwickPix application for other authorized users. Your sole benefit from taking these photographs is the transfer of QPCredit to your account. Any of the photos taken by you are not your property, artistic work, copyrightable items, and are the person’s with whom you have entered a QPSession. You agree not to use those photographs and will have no access to the photographs after the session is complete and/or ended.
