SAFEGUARDING YOUR PRIVACY

Our system has certain safeguards to help protect your privacy, but these safeguards cannot prevent you from putting sensitive information into information fields on your profile or in your resume.

In order to protect the privacy of all our members we do provide a contact facility on the web site that enables registered agents to submit an inquiry to a profile holder - this is done via our internal messaging service and doesn't reveal any personal contact information, such as your email address or last name to the agent. However, VERIFIED agents (agents that we know are genuine, responsible organizations) WILL be able to see your telephone number on your profile, but ONLY if you've checked the box in your control panel to make this available.

If you upload a resume to your profile you must remember that this will be visible to the general public and therefore you should ensure that you do not include any sensitive or personal information such as telephone number(s), email or postal address, SSN number, etc

We strongly recommend that you do NOT include any sensitive information in the 'Experience', 'Personal Profile' or 'Skills' areas of your profile - publishing your telephone number or email address in these areas could lead to unsolicited spam mail or worse.

StarsInMyEyes.TV cannot be held responsible for any consequences resulting from a profile holder publishing personal and/or confidential and/or sensitive information in publicly viewable fields in their profile.

Details of how to contact us are contained on our CONTACT PAGE

Junk mail filters can often cause more problems than they solve because it means people don't receive emails they really want. You can help overcome this problem by adding us to your address book or safe senders list. CLICK HERE to see our handy guide on how to do this!!

Your user name will be the email address you used when you first registered with StarsInMyEyes.

All listings submitted for inclusion on the site are vetted by our editorial team in order to satisfy ourselves that they are genuine opportunities. WE DO NOT PUBLISH LISTINGS THAT WE KNOW TO BE FAKE OR MISLEADING. If you find a listing that you believe is misleading or fraudulent please inform us so we can investigate.

This is probably because you're a basic (free) subscriber. There are certain limitations on what facilities are available to non-paying members. For example, you can upload a lot less images, you can't access the APPLY NOW information for listings, and certain elements of your profile won't be displayed on the web site. Also, some of our special subscriber bonuses won't be available to you. ALL of the features of the web site will become available to you if you upgrade to a paid subscription - and this can cost as little as 13p per day! If you want to upgrade, just log in and then click on the 'ACCOUNT' tab on your profile control panel - you'll see all of the upgrade options available to you on there.

This site uses javascript to display certain information and you need to make sure that javascript is enabled on your browser.

In order to appreciate everything our web site has to offer we recommend a MINIMUM browser resolution of 1024x768. You will still be able to see all of the information at a lower resolution (e.g. 800x600) but you will find that you will need to use a horizontal scroll on some pages, and certain elements of a page (e.g. tabs) may appear in slightly the wrong position.

We aim to answer all inquiries within 4 working hours. If you have not received a reply within that timescale you should first of all check to see whether our emails are being placed in a spam folder. Holders of free email addresses such as Hotmail, Yahoo, GMail etc should be especially careful of this. You should allow starsinmyeyes.tv as a 'non-spam' sender. Certain email addresses (such as libraries) do not permit incoming emails and you will never get a reply from us. If you think that this may be causing a problem for you then we recommend that you submit an inquiry using an alternate email address (perhaps that of a friend) ... if you do this, make sure that you include the email address which you used to register so that we can identify you! CLICK HERE to read our guide on how to help ensure you receive our emails.

Your profile control panel is protected by enhanced security that encrypts all data using 128bit encryption. We use an SSL certificate that confirms communication between your browser and secured areas of our website is encrypted.

You can confirm the validity of our SSL certificate by clicking (or double-clicking in Firefox) the padlock to display the security credentials.

When you set up a subscription you are transferred to a secure server on the Barclays Bank EPDQ network where you will also see a padlock symbol displayed in your web browser. You can verify the security credentials of Barclays Bank in the same manner as described above.

Unlike some of our competitors, a lot of the opportunities displayed on StarsInMyEyes provide you with DIRECT contact information so you will always be in control and you will always know that your applications aren't just disappearing into a database somewhere! There are occasions though when the company or individual submitting the listing opts to use our automated application process; on these occasions the application process will mean that you submit your StarsInMyEyes profile for review by the advertiser. When you do this you’ll get a confirmation message in your Control Panel inbox.

It sounds like your browser is blocking our cookie. You can try a quick test to see if cookies are enabled on your browser by running a simple test ... when you click on the link that follows you will be taken to a new page - if it's blank it means cookies aren't enabled in your browser, if it contains a long string of 'gobbledeegook' that means cookies ARE enabled! You will need to use your browser BACK button to come back to this page once you've run the test ... when you're ready to run the test click here!

If cookies aren't enabled then here's a guide on what to do : In Internet Explorer you should select Tools | Internet Options | Privacy from the drop-down menu, and then click on the 'sites' button. In the field marked 'address of web site' enter http://www.starsinmyeyes.tv and then click on the button marked 'allow'. Then click on 'OK' until the windows are all closed. In Firefox you should select Tools | Options and then click on the 'privacy padlock' symbol. There should be a tick in the box marked 'allow sites to set cookies'; if this box is ticked and you're still having a problem then click on the 'exceptions' button, enter in the 'address of web site' field, click on the 'allow' button and then click 'close' followed by 'ok'. If you are still unable to log in then it's possible there is an error with your registration profile and we will need to investigate. Please submit a support request using our support ticket system.

If you want to submit an audition or other opportunity to be published on StarsInMyEyes you'll need to create a commercial registration (don't worry, there's no fee!) - if you already have a commercial registration with us all you need to do is log in and then click on 'Add Listing' on the top menu!

This is highly unlikely.What this normally means is that travel expenses will be paid for anyone that is cast in the production. This term is normally used for low-budget films where there is no (or little) fee for the actual work involved.

Certain parts of our web site use pop-up windows to display information; if you have a pop-up blocker activated in your web browser then you need to modify its settings so that it 'allows' pop-ups from starsinmyeyes.tv. A temporary way of solving this problem can also be to hold down the CTRL key (Apple Key for Mac users) when you click on a link – this should temporarily allow the pop-up you want to see.

No, not really! Sometimes a 'fresh face' is just what's wanted! Without a doubt, experience can be useful and certainly list details of any previous experience in your profile. Listings often state whether experience is required - be mindful of this when you apply!

No! It used to be the case but Margaret Thatcher outlawed 'closed shops' so you no longer need to be an Equity member to be able to work in front of camera or on stage.

The short answer is yes - you're your own boss! The long answer is that it's advisable when you are developing a work history to be willing to accept any work that is offered to you (within reason) - it's all experience and builds up your portfolio and you wouldn't be serving your own best interests if you got a reputation for being picky. Expecting to work only in something that really appeals to you is fine, but it will undoubtedly considerably limit your options!

First of all we must stress that StarsInMyEyes is NOT an agency - we do NOT offer employment to any of our members, merely provide the information they need to attend auditions and apply for opportunities.

If you choose to join an agency you should be aware that most agencies will charge a commission to artists of between 10% and 20% (normally around 13% to 15%). Joining an agency can be a sensible move as some of the major productions will only recruit background artists/extras via an agency. Bear in mind that the agency will probably have to charge VAT on their commission, and will also have to deduct national insurance.

There is no age restriction on who can register on our web site but our Terms & Conditions require that any person under the age of 16 has obtained the permission of a parent or guardian.

Most people can pass for younger or older than their actual age; some are lucky enough to get away with 10 or even 20 years younger, whilst others can pass for several years older. If you're unsure of your actable age range, just choose not specified in your profile.
