VistaCreate and Depositphotos suspend all business in Russia and Belarus

Due to the military activities carried out by Russia on the territory of Ukraine, and in light of international sanctions, Depositphotos and VistaCreate will stop all sales as well as halt providing services to clients and partners from the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus. 

We will stop accepting payments, halt access to pre-paid services, and stop any other type of cooperation with clients and partners from the aforementioned countries. Depositphotos and VistaCreate will refund all liabilities immediately after the sanctions are lifted.

The Depositphotos and VistaCreate teams condemn violent and unlawful actions carried out on behalf of Russia. We do not want our services to be used for the purpose of propaganda, disinformation, on any other reinforcement of unlawful actions. 

In regards to fighting disinformation and propaganda, earlier we have sent out an email to our users in Russia and Belarus sharing the truth about the war in Ukraine and encouraging them to join the anti-war protests. We also put together two image collections that feature documentary photos of the tragic events in Ukraine and rallies taking place worldwide. A dedicated templates collection by VistaCreate includes dozens of thematic, pre-designed templates that are free to use for both media and individuals that want to speak up for peace and support Ukraine.

In addition to informational support on behalf of VistaCreate and Depositphotos, our team members volunteer, donate money to humanitarian causes, and join the ranks of territorial defense.

Now more than ever, support and unity in a fight against a brutal, unlawful war is important. The contribution of each one of us is important.
