Please Note: As many of our Services are primarily promotional tools personal data included in these public profiles may be accessible by other RafikiHub users and/or the public via wide circulation or redistribution, and via our historical archives. Therefore you should never include any personal data on your profile that you would wish to remain private.
RafikiHub does not have access to the casting briefs prior to them being sent out, and cannot take responsibility for information included in them. RafikiHub does however apprise our RafikiHub Casting Professionals of their responsibilities in line with related legislation. Should you have any concerns regarding the nature of a casting brief sent out to you then please use info@rafikihub.com available on the website or contact our offices immediately to report this.
Please Note: RafikiHub is not an employment agency. It does not become involved in the casting process and cannot act on your behalf in any work related negotiations; we will only pass on messages from potential employers.
Also, RafikiHub only provides the functionality of The RafikiHub Link and other services. It is not responsible for the content of the job adverts, including opportunities, or the actions of the advertiser or subsequent employer.
Please be aware that acceptance of a name by RafikiHub does not guarantee that the performer's use of the name will not result in trade mark infringement actions, or actions for passing off, or other actions by other parties, and that it is the performer's sole responsibility to deal with any such claim. RafikiHub will not be able to intervene in disputes between performers/agents regarding name registrations on RafikiHub, whether this be in relation to trademarked names or otherwise. In such instances, complainants would need to seek contact with the other party.
It is also the responsibility of the RafikiHub Member to ensure they have clearance to list details of productions/projects they have been involved in, or will be involved in, without disclosing confidential information which may cause harm to the hiring company concerned.
You must not upload material that is unlawful, defamatory, abusive, obscene, discriminatory or otherwise inappropriate.
RafikiHub reserves the right to suspend or withdraw services from RafikiHub Members who violate our terms and conditions, and not to use or make available any material which it deems inappropriate, or to remove material which it considers to be in breach of these terms and conditions.
If there is any sort of dispute, RafikiHub will take your material offline until you clear the right to use the material.
RafikiHub will always hold an approved main photograph for you. In the event that you wish to replace/substitute your main photo we must approve the new one first. Once the new photo is approved you can then remove the old main photo, or it can be hidden. If you wish to exercise further rights with regards to controlling your data such as the deletion of your photographs, please see our Privacy Policy.
If you are linking to an existing clip or recording a clip from scratch especially for your showreel / voice-clips, remember that most 20th century scripts are still subject to copyright, and you should seek permission from the publisher.
RafikiHub Members may use the RafikiHub logo on their own website as long as: it is a single instance of the RafikiHub logo as a link to our website www.rafikihub.com, it is in the context of a factual reference to the role of RafikiHub, and the logo does not imply RafikiHub’s endorsement of any website or online service.
When you have an Agent, enquirers will usually contact you via your Agent. If they call our offices then they will only be given your representative's contact details. However, should a RafikiHub Casting Professional tell us that they have been unable to reach your representative, in these instances we will leave a message for your Agent but also try to contact you directly.
RafikiHub has a formal registration procedure for Agents and access will only be provided to agents where their professional background can be assessed.
If you are in a RafikiHub database where you do have the option to list personal contact information, please be aware that this information could be widely circulated or shared, including in the public domain, and therefore you should never list information that you would wish to keep private.
If you have links to public resources outside of RafikiHub such as personal websites or social media, you do so at your own risk.
It is your responsibility to ensure that we have current valid contact information for you, at all times, so that we can contact you with information about your RafikiHub Membership and in some instances so that you can receive information about casting opportunities from third parties.

Our Rooms are not provided with sound-proofing and you accept that RafikiHub cannot control external noise or interruptions within the Rooms, although RafikiHub will always try to offer advance notice of significant noise interruptions which are within its control (such as not booking rooms where scheduled works within that building are taking place).
It is your responsibility to ensure that any electrical equipment you, or your representatives, bring into our premises has had appropriate Portable Appliance testing carried out and is free from damage or defect that could affect our premises, property, employees, contractors, visitors and anyone else attending our premises.
It is the responsibility of the hirer to test equipment provided by RafikiHub on arrival at the premises to ensure that everything is working as they would wish, and before they start any filming sessions. RafikiHub has no liability where hirers have not tested equipment prior to use, or where hirers have failed to record footage, or have filmed inferior quality footage.
Whilst every effort is made to ensure RafikiHub's online services are available throughout your booking, you acknowledge that our operation may be adversely affected by conditions and performance outside our control including, and without limitation, transmissions and communications between our rooms and studios and other systems and networks.
It is the responsibility of the individual/company running the casting session to ensure that all footage from the session that they will, or may, require ongoing is uploaded to RafikiHub’s upload and share system on the day, footage not uploaded on the day will be deleted by RafikiHub in line with data protection regulations.

You agree that you shall not make, sell, broadcast, distribute or reproduce mechanically, digitally, electronically or otherwise by any manner or means (whether now known or hereafter devised) any audio-visual images of our facilities, employees, other hirers or visitors, and/or pass such material on to other independent organisations or any other persons, without our prior written consent (which may be withheld at our absolute discretion).

This would include property or equipment left on the premises overnight, or left for collection by another party, for which we can accept no responsibility or liability in the event of damage or loss.
Rooms and Studios hirers are responsible for the Health & Safety of their sessions. You should therefore carry out a hazard assessment prior to starting work, and ensure you have acquainted yourself with emergency procedures for the room, studio, venue, premises, building....that you have hired.

RafikiHub will not sign an agreement that would prevent RafikiHub and its staff from undertaking duties such as reporting or evidencing criminal activity.
RafikiHub employees cannot take responsibility for the care of children and infants attending Rooms or Studio sessions. It is the responsibility of the hirer to ensure children and infants attending sessions will have a suitable person with them on arrival to take care of their well-being. Where a large number of children or infants may be attending Rooms or Studios sessions you must ensure that you have a suitable number of appropriate employees with you to assist with related issues at these sessions including, but not limited to, ensuring parents/chaperones keep fire escapes, doorways and stairways free of infants, children, prams, toys or similar.
You are responsible for the space allocated to you during your event. Any damage to your allocated space or its contents (or any other part of our facilities) incurred as a result of your or your invitees' (or representatives of either) acts, omissions or negligence will result in a charge based on (i) the costs of repair, and (ii) the value to us of any subsequent loss of business or trade or other commercial activity suffered by us. If we feel there is excess waste and mess generated from your use of our facilities and extra fee will be chargeable to cover the costs of cleaning and removal.
In the event of a breach of these terms causing damage or nuisance to our neighbors, or our having reasonable grounds for fearing such damage or nuisance, we reserve the right to (i) require you or your invitees (or representatives of either) to leave the premises; (ii) terminate the event immediately (in which case the full amount will be payable) if the noise or nuisance cannot be controlled at an acceptable level and the refusing party refuses to leave; (iii) disconnect electricity supplies to noise producing or audio-visual equipment; and (iv) cancel any further bookings which you have made (irrespective of whether you have paid any applicable deposit(s).

The termination of these terms and conditions shall not prejudice any claim which we may have against you in respect of any previous breach of any provision in these terms and conditions, nor shall it prejudice the continuance in force of any provision in these terms and conditions which is (expressly or by implication) intended to come into or continue in force on or after such termination. On termination you shall, within 7 days, pay us all sums due and payable under these terms and conditions together with any accrued interest (if applicable).

We are committed to providing the highest standards of cleanliness, in particular:
No provision of these terms and conditions shall be enforceable under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 by a third party, but this does not affect any right or remedy of a third party which exists or is available apart from under that Act.
Neither party will be responsible for any delay in performing or failure to perform our respective obligations (other than a payment obligation) under these terms and conditions due to any cause outside their reasonable control. Should events beyond our control prevent access to the building, RafikiHub will not be held accountable. Such delay or failure will not constitute a breach of these terms and conditions and the time for performance of the affected obligations will be extended by such period as is reasonable.
Any variation to these terms and conditions must be agreed by us in writing and signed by an authorised official of RafikiHub. Any changes by you to these terms and conditions, without our prior consent, shall not be binding on us.

You agree that the undertakings contained in these paragraphs are reasonable and are entered into for the purpose of protecting the goodwill of our business. Should you breach this clause, you agree that 6-months' salary of the relevant employee is a reasonable pre-estimate of our losses.
If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid, such invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.
If you breach these terms and conditions, we may suffer loss. You agree to indemnify us against any and all claims, actions, suits or proceedings, as well as any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of any non-compliance by you with these terms and conditions. We shall have no liability for (i) loss of profit suffered by you which flows as a natural, direct and/or obvious consequence from our breach of these terms and conditions; or (ii) any indirect, consequential or incidental loss, damage, cost or expense of any kind whatever (even if we have been advised of their possibility), howsoever the losses described in this condition are caused whether arising under contract, tort (including negligence on our part, our employees, sub-contractors or others) or otherwise.
Save as set out in these terms, any liability under these terms and conditions shall not exceed 100% of all monies payable by you under the signed booking contract or Kshs 300,000, whichever is the lower.
This Section does not in any way limit our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or for any implied terms or other matter for which it would be illegal for us to exclude, or attempt to exclude, our liability.
These terms and conditions (as amended from time to time) together with any document expressly referred to in them comprise the entire agreement between you and us.
Each provision of these terms and conditions shall be construed separately, applying and surviving even if for any reason one or other provisions is held to be inapplicable or unenforceable in any circumstances.
