Terms & Conditions
Last updated: November 11, 2026
1. About these terms
Ethos Model Management LLC (“Ethos,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a model management and mother agency based in New York. These terms cover your use of ethosmodels.com and materials you submit through the website or by email.
Please read these terms before using the site or sending an application. Representation, placements, and bookings are subject to separate written agreements. Visiting this site, submitting an application, or appearing in a model package does not create an employment or representation relationship.
2. Applications & scouting
Use the Apply page to submit your details and clear, recent photographs. Professional photographs are not required. Provide accurate information and submit only materials you have permission to share.
There is no fee to apply or to sign with Ethos. An application does not guarantee representation, a placement, paid work, or a particular outcome. We review submissions, but only selected applicants will be contacted.
Do not include identity documents, banking details, or other sensitive records in an initial scouting submission.
3. Applicants under 18
A parent or legal guardian must be involved in applications and any subsequent discussions concerning an applicant under 18. Parents and guardians should contact info@ethosmodels.com before sending information about a child so we can discuss the appropriate submission process.
Any representation or work involving a minor remains subject to the permissions, permits, supervision, and other protections required by applicable law.
4. Your photographs & materials
You keep your rights in the photographs and other materials you submit. You give Ethos permission to receive, store, and review them for scouting and to discuss potential representation or placements with relevant partners, as described in our Privacy Policy.
A scouting submission does not grant unrestricted advertising, commercial image usage, or digital replica rights. Any such use requires appropriate separate permission. To ask us to stop considering your submission or remove your materials, contact us.
5. Representation, bookings & expenses
The scope of representation, territories, commissions, payment terms, image usage, and any approved expenses must be set out in the relevant written agreements and booking documents, subject to applicable law. These website terms do not authorize a booking, expense, deduction, or use of a model’s likeness.
Nothing on this page replaces a signed agreement or limits rights and protections that cannot lawfully be waived. Where applicable, this includes protections under the New York Fashion Workers Act.
6. Safety & professional conduct
Ethos expects respectful, professional conduct from clients, photographers, collaborators, and everyone involved in work arranged through the agency. Harassment, discrimination, coercion, and unsafe working conditions are not acceptable.
You may raise a concern at info@ethosmodels.com. You should not be pressured to accept an unsafe situation or work that goes beyond the agreed scope or your consent. Contact emergency services if you face immediate danger.
If someone claims to represent Ethos and you are unsure, verify the communication through our published contact details before sharing information or making a payment.
7. Website images & model packages
Photographs, videos, text, and other creative work on this site belong to their respective rights holders. Viewing a portfolio or receiving a package does not grant permission to reproduce, publish, license, or commercially use its contents.
Contact Ethos to discuss availability, bookings, and usage permissions. A portfolio, measurement, package, or website listing is a reference, not a booking confirmation or a guarantee of current availability. Confirm project details directly with us.
Do not use site content to train AI systems or create synthetic images, voices, or digital replicas without the necessary express permission from the model and other rights holders.
8. Using the website
Do not use this site to impersonate another person, submit material without permission, send abusive or unlawful content, interfere with the site, or attempt unauthorized access.
We work to keep the site useful and accurate, but content can change and technical errors or interruptions may occur. Contact us if you notice incorrect information or a problem with an application.
9. Privacy & external services
Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information, including applications and correspondence.
Links to other websites, social platforms, and external services are provided for convenience. Their content and privacy practices are governed by their own policies.
10. Updates & your rights
We may revise these terms when the website or our practices change. The date above identifies the latest revision. Any separate agreement remains subject to its own amendment requirements and applicable law.
Nothing in these terms excludes a legal duty, removes a statutory protection, or limits a right that cannot be restricted by agreement.
