Can I use an app or online service to sign model releases?

Using these services is allowed, with conditions.

The text of any online release must include substantially similar language to Stocksy’s paper release. All requirements required on a paper release must be included in an app or an online version.

If you are using an online signing service, make sure there is an audit trail showing which IP address signed which signature and when. You do not need to submit this with the release, but you should retain it for your own protection.

Acceptable e-signing options:

• Docusign
• Adobe

Acceptable release apps:

• Easy Release
  • In Easy Release, you currently need to purchase the “Advanced Customization Pro Pack” to create a shoot date range. Please see their FAQ for more info. Alternatively, you can write out the date range in the description field (i.e. “Shoot Date Range January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017”).

We will continue to review and add to this list.
