Terms of use

01The service and the parties

TakeOne is a platform where actors and other talent publish a profile, photos, a showreel, and self-tapes; where managers and agents link the talent they represent; and where casting directors and producers discover talent, open calls and challenges, watch applications, and build a shortlist. The service covers the site at takeone.com.tr, the web portal at https://takeone.com.tr/app, and the iOS and Android apps.

The operator is Hamla Teknoloji Anonim Şirketi (Hamla Teknoloji A.Ş.). Its headquarters are at Reşitpaşa Mahallesi, Katar Caddesi, İTÜ Arı 1 Teknokent Binası, No: 2/5 İç Kapı No: 33, Sarıyer / İstanbul. For notices, email info@hamlateknoloji.com or call +90 (534) 012-4647 or +90 (553) 554-8970.

Hamla Teknoloji is not a casting agency, a manager, an employer, or a producer. It does not promise a role, it does not place talent on a project, and it is not a party to a representation, employment, copyright, or production contract between users. Those contracts are made directly between the users concerned.

02Account rules

• An account belongs to a natural person, or to a legal entity you are authorised to act for. You may not transfer the account or share the session.
• Sign-in uses an email and password that belong to you, your Google account, or Apple sign-in where the app or the site offers it. You may not use someone else’s account.
• The name, contact details, age, physical traits, experience, and role you give must be accurate and kept up to date. A misleading identity is prohibited.
• An account for talent under 18 may be used only with the consent of a parent or guardian. The product records age as a number from 13 to 100 and does not store a separate consent form. The person who opens the account is responsible for that consent.
• You are responsible for the security of your account. If you notice unauthorised use, write to info@hamlateknoloji.com.
• Hamla Teknoloji may ask for further verification to prevent abuse. Refusing verification may lead to limits on the account. This does not mean that every casting account is officially accredited.

03Talent

Talent means actors and other people who place a profile or audition material on the platform.

• You declare that you own the photos, videos, audio, text, CV, and portfolio you upload, or that you have the permissions needed to share them.
• You may not upload another person’s image without that person’s permission. If the person is under 18, the permission comes from a parent or guardian.
• Age, height, physical traits, experience, and contact details must not be misleading. Casting teams assess you on that information.
• Applying to a call does not mean you will be cast, called to set, or paid.
• You agree that your profile and materials may be shown to casting directors and producers as part of the discovery and application features of the service.
• You do not have to accept an offer that reaches you through the platform. You agree set, fee, and copyright terms yourself, off the platform, with the other party.

04Managers and agents

A manager or agent account is used only for talent you are authorised to represent.

• You base the existence and scope of the representation on the talent’s informed consent. For talent under 18, that consent comes from a parent or guardian.
• You are responsible for the accuracy of the identity, physical traits, experience, photos, and videos you enter for talent, and for having permission to upload them.
• You keep the consent you received from the talent, or from the parent or guardian, in a form you can show if it is asked for.
• When the representation ends, you remove the link. You may not keep accessing a profile or materials you are no longer authorised to use.
• You may not use, sell, or pass on talent’s contact details outside the legitimate purpose of the representation.
• A management commission or representation fee is not collected through TakeOne. That fee, if any, is a matter for the contract between you and the talent. Hamla Teknoloji is not a party to that contract.

05Casting directors and producers

A casting account is used only for a genuine casting, audition, challenge, or production need.

• A call you publish is real. A fake casting, a promise of a role that will not happen, and a listing that diverts talent toward some other product are prohibited.
• You may not ask talent, through the platform or by using the platform, for an application fee, a portfolio fee, a «role fee», or a payment in order to be cast. TakeOne does not offer that collection and does not intermediate it.
• A fee under a production, copyright, or employment contract is agreed between the parties, off the platform. A promise of that fee is your statement. Hamla Teknoloji does not guarantee it.
• Photos, videos, CVs, and contact details opened to you are confidential. They may be used only in the relevant casting process, with the team members who need them.
• You may not use the materials in your own archive, your showreel, your advertising, your training, or another project without the right holder’s separate written permission. Uploading to the platform is not that permission.
• You may not add contact details to a marketing list, sell them, use them for spam, or process them for harassment or discrimination.
• You assess applicants in a way that respects human dignity. A discriminatory, sexual, or degrading demand is prohibited.

06User content

Rights in a profile, photo, video, audio, text, call, application, note, and message («content») stay with you or with the right holder. Hamla Teknoloji does not take ownership of the content.

By placing content on the platform you grant Hamla Teknoloji a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence. The only purpose of the licence is to operate the service: to host the content, back it up, transcode it, transmit it technically, and show it to the users the feature you use requires. The licence does not include a right to sell the content to third parties, to use it in advertising, or to license it as training data. It may pass to a successor that operates the service, and it cannot be assigned otherwise.

The licence ends when you delete the content, except for the time backups need to leave the cycle and for legal duties that have already arisen. The retention periods in the privacy policy apply.

You are responsible for content being lawful, in line with these terms, and respectful of third-party rights. Hamla Teknoloji does not have to review content before it is published. On notice, or on its own finding, it may remove content, restrict access, and meet its hosting-provider duties under Turkish Law No. 5651.

07Prohibited conduct

The following are grounds for closing an account at once, and legal remedies may be used:

• Fake casting, fraud, phishing, or extracting a fee from talent.
• Harassment, threats, hate speech, discrimination, sexual harassment, and non-consensual sexual content.
• Content that is child sexual abuse material. That content is removed and reported to the competent authorities.
• Using someone else’s account, impersonation, or copying and leaking materials without permission.
• Using contact details opened to a casting team outside the relevant casting.
• Spam, automated bulk messages, and scraping the platform.
• Testing security without authorisation, reverse engineering, or sending malware.
• Uploading music, text, or images you do not have the rights to.

08Reporting, blocking, and moderation

TakeOne has zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users. Content that breaks any of the prohibited-conduct rules above is removed, and the account may be closed without warning.

• You can use «Report» in the app on every video, comment, message, profile, call, and challenge. The reported user is not told who reported them.
• You can block a user with «Block». A blocked user cannot see your content or message you, and you no longer see theirs. You can unblock under Settings > Blocked users.
• Our team reviews reports within 24 hours. If a breach is confirmed, the content is removed and, where needed, the account that posted it is suspended or closed.
• For an urgent safety issue, or content that puts a child at risk, report it in the app and also email info@hamlateknoloji.com. Such content is removed at once and reported to the competent authorities.

09The platform is an intermediary

Hamla Teknoloji provides the technical means for users to reach one another. It does not produce user content. It is not a party to a representation, employment, or production relationship between two users. It does not collect or pay the fee that arises from that relationship.

Users’ statements, the genuineness of a call, conditions on set, and contracts made off the platform are not a commitment by Hamla Teknoloji. Do your own checks before you choose a user. Report a suspicious call to info@hamlateknoloji.com.

For content users upload, Hamla Teknoloji is a hosting provider under Law No. 5651 on the Regulation of Publications on the Internet and Combating Crimes Committed by Means of Such Publications. A hosting provider is liable for unlawful content within the notice-and-takedown procedure in that statute. This clause does not remove liability for intent or gross negligence.

10Fees and subscriptions

On the date these terms are published, TakeOne does not charge talent to open a profile, upload material, join a challenge, or apply to a call. There is no in-app purchase, no subscription, and no in-platform payment between users. Payment-card details are not requested.

If a corporate or other paid feature is introduced later, the price, the term, and how to cancel will be shown clearly before any fee is collected, and these terms will be updated. Charging talent a fee through the platform will not start before these terms change and the change is announced. Casting teams also may not ask talent for an application fee by using the platform.

11Intellectual property in the platform

The TakeOne name, logo, site and app design, software, and text produced by Hamla Teknoloji belong to Hamla Teknoloji or its licensors. User content is outside this clause. You may not copy the mark, the software, or the design, or set up another product that presents itself as the service.

12Suspension and ending

• You can delete your account at any time in the mobile app under Profile > Settings > Delete account. If you cannot reach the app, use the deletion route in the privacy policy.
• Hamla Teknoloji may suspend or close an account for a breach of these terms, a fake call, suspected fraud, infringement of another person’s rights, a security risk, or a legal duty.
• Prior notice is not required for a serious or urgent breach. In other cases, a reason is given where that is possible.
• Ending the account does not cancel duties that have already arisen, claims from use that broke these rules, or copies of content kept only for the legal retention period.

13Limit of liability

The service is provided «as is». There is no promise of a particular role, income, uninterrupted access, or compatibility with a particular device. The service may be interrupted for maintenance or for a store release. Store links for the app may not be open yet.

To the extent mandatory law allows, Hamla Teknoloji is not liable for users’ statements, casting decisions, contracts made off the platform, loss of profit, indirect damage, or unauthorised copying of content. Intent and gross negligence are outside this limit. Mandatory rules on death and personal injury remain in force.

The mandatory provisions of Law No. 6502 on the Protection of the Consumer apply to users who are consumers. A limit in these terms does not narrow those provisions.

14Changes to these terms

These terms may be updated. The last-updated date at the top of the page will change. A material change is published on this page. If you keep using the service after the change, you accept the new terms. If you do not accept them, close your account and stop using the service.

If one provision is held invalid, the others stay in force. Hamla Teknoloji may assign the service as part of a transfer or reorganisation. That assignment follows the transfer rules in the privacy policy.

15Governing law and venue

These terms are governed by Turkish law. The courts and enforcement offices of Istanbul have jurisdiction.

In a dispute that is a consumer transaction, the right to apply to the consumer court and the consumer arbitration committee at the consumer’s place of residence is reserved. This section does not remove that right.
