Use of this site is for members only. For the protection of everyone concerned, members may not lend their user ID or password to others.

Random checks are done to verify that the registered member is the person using the services of StarPitchers.

In order to list any script (herein referred to as "Material") on StarPitchers, scripts must be registered through the Writers Guild, U.S. Copyright Office, or any other recognized copyright/registration agency.

StarPitchers gains and retains Industry Professionals (producers, directors, representatives, etc.), as well as other writers, by promotion of successes from the use of our site. Therefore, we ask all writers to follow the protocol below:

I, a writer and user of StarPitchers, understand that I am to never contact an Industry Professional through any means due to a logline/synopsis/resume/profile/coverage viewing or related to any pitched query through StarPitcher's newsletters unless I am contacted by said Industry Professional.

I understand that the only time I am allowed to proactively contact an Industry Professional is at least three weeks after my treatment and/or script has been downloaded by said Industry Professional. I will contact them only via the message button on my viewings page that appears 3 weeks after the download.

If an Industry Professional asks for my script through a pitching opportunity submission through StarPitcher's newsletters, I understand that I can follow up to the email address that the Industry Professional contacted me through.

I understand that StarPitchers pitching opportunities in the StarPitchers newsletters are for members only (StarPitchers Pro, The Weekly Pitch, and regular subscribers). I will not submit Material that isn't requested by an Industry Professional, nor will I submit outside of the StarPitchers submission system.

I understand that my Material is subject to certain submission requirements as dictated by StarPitchers. This includes submission requirements for titles, loglines, synopses, scripts, pitch decks, accolades, and more. I will follow these to the letter and understand that StarPitchers can remove my Material from their site for breaching these requirements.

I understand that pornographic and/or racist Material is strictly prohibited, and StarPitchers has the sole discretion to determine if Material is pornographic and/or racist. Violation of this will result in Material removal and account banning.

I understand that any Material, either on StarPitchers or submitted to pitching opportunities, must be completed, copyrighted, and not written by AI. The submission of incomplete Material or AI-generated scripts is strictly prohibited, and violation of this policy will result in account suspension.

I understand that I cannot use StarPitchers viewings or StarPitcher's pitching opportunities to reach out to industry professionals outside the StarPitchers platform or through StarPitcher's Share Tracker. I understand when cold querying companies either on my own or using Share Tracker that I will be cognizant of who recently viewed my work on StarPitchers and not reach out to those companies. StarPitcher's messaging service for script and treatment viewings will be used to follow up 3 weeks after those viewings on the site.

I understand that if I am an StarPitchers Pro member or use one of StarPitcher's stand-alone services (The Weekly Pitch or the script listing), it is in my best interest to use my membership benefits to their fullest, and it is not the responsibility of anyone other than myself to do so. I understand that StarPitchers is not obligated to remind me of unused benefits.

If Material is sold/optioned or as a writer I get work, a development deal, or representation, etc., through StarPitchers, I must inform StarPitchers via email. StarPitchers reserves the right to announce any successes obtained through StarPitcher's network.

I understand that these are conditions for using StarPitchers.

We require all parties to be respectful of one another. Disrespectful communication to Industry Professionals can result in suspension or termination of your account without notice.

StarPitchers reserves the right to remove script listings from the site for any reason.

StarPitchers reserves the right to change this Protocol without notification.

For reference, this is the protocol that our Industry Professionals agree to.
