On the contributor agreement, http://submit.depositphotos.com/supply-agreement.html :

12. TERMINATION EFFECT

In case of termination of this Agreement, in accordance with the authorities granted under this agreement, Depositphotos shall cease collaboration in the following ways:
During the 30 (thirty) days prior to the Agreement termination, Depositphotos shall remove from the Site all files and files uploaded by the Contributor;
Notwithstanding the fact of termination, Depositphotos has the ability and right to continue the licensing of any already accepted files until their removal from the Site;
Upon the expiration of the Agreement and after its termination, according to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Depositphotos shall pay compensation due to the Contributor for licenses issued to Purchasers during the transitional period in accordance with all the rights stated in this Agreement or required by law.

From what I think, is that, after 30 days, they can't even have images of an account terminated... Can't we do anything by legal means?  ???


I just send this to her and asked her to activate my account and delete my deactivated files in 30 day period. To day my account is online and my files are also online ???
Asked her again deactivate all files and delete them in 30 day period.

What's  your problem? You asked them to reactivate your account, now they have 30 days to remove the files within the rules.

The question is, how will you know whether they have deleted them or just deactivated them? Are you going to try to get a court order to search their database once the files are no longer visible?

You really are building mountains out of molehills over this.

With a little bit of patience, they will do it. Once, on a particular agency, I got my images deleted after 24 hours of being online. On agreement they would be deleted only after 6 months...

Anyway, even without regular sales ( yet ) on DP, it appear to have some potential. Dunno reasons behind Your decision, but probably You haven't nothing to loose have Your account online.

It's somehow funny, look into all complaints, made ​​several months ago, about the "legality" of DP. How fast people change opinion  ;D

ETA: He was gone... dam II need write faster in future reply's :D

We didn't all change our opinion.   I never did go with DP as I still feel uneasy about this agency in spite of others' success there.  Each to his own though.

I'm speaking about "general opinion".. not anyone particularly.

But I see that as an "positive mind change". If people trust more on DP, maybe they understood how DP it's safer as any other agency.

It would be great having some official statement from DP here. They have posted here before, so this would be a good opportunity to (re)gain some more trust.

Personally I don't think folks change of hearts is a matter of trust, but a matter of sales, hey business is business and you have to go where the money is, even if at times you have to work with with people/companies that you trust only as far as you can throw them...  ;)...that pretty much covers all agencies big and small IMO...

They delete my files without 30 days waiting period.
I think there is some misunderstood. She just understand wrongly or missed to explain something to me while she were telling they can not delete my files.
Thank you very much to DP worker and people in here who help to solve this problem.
Kind Regards,

I don't mind deactivating instead of deleting. It gives you an option to come back if you change your mind. I'm new at DP, but I think they're fine. If communication is problematic just make sure they understand what you need to do. I don't think there's anything wrong with their legality.

It's not legality per se, it's scumbaggery.  I am guilty.  I am with them and nothing pisses me off more than a broken promise of them saying they would promote my port if I signed up with them.  Now, I never believed them, but I took the chance anyhow.  I am in that zone in which I get a lot of 30 cent downloads but not much of anything else.  Personally, DP and PD are two really loosey goosey sites.  I drank the cool aid.

Yes, most of my sales generate 30c too, but then SS is not very different in that respect. I think that in the long run this price war will hurt the entire community.

The vast majority of my sales are 30 cent downloads, too. I stopped uploading a few weeks ago, the payout is just too low.

I think every contributor's mileage varies.

60% out of my last 10 downloads at DP were credit sales which may not be typical for many.

I have a good 1100+ images on there and easily get a monthly payout.

Same for PD 900 files, monthly payout.

Still in the process of getting my port up there but I can't complain.

That sounds promising. 28% of mine are subs credit sales.
