Terms and Conditions

This is a legal agreement between you (the client) and us (the image supplier). You will be deemed to have accepted all the terms of this Agreement in respect of any Image(s) you receive or download (including preview images and thumbnails) unless you notify us to the contrary within 5 days of receipt.

SPECIAL NOTES FOR BOOK PUBLISHERS:

We are a Rights-Managed agency, and the standard Image Licence we grant to book publishers is for a single use, for a specific time period, on specific book format(s), in a specific territory/country, for a specific print run.

Clients may not use our images until: A license & fee has been arranged with us and an invoice has been issued by us to the client for any payment that is due.

Further Licenses (& fees) are required for any additional uses from those on the original invoice. e.g.

2nd Rights

Preferential fees for multiple formats are available if all formats are licensed at the same time.  If subsequent formats are licensed separately and at a later date than the original Licence, they will usually require higher fees.

Our Cancellation Policy

Our cancellation period is 30 days from client's receipt of the original invoice.  If you wish to cancel after this time a cancellation fee maybe charged.

  2. DIGITAL DELIVERY OF IMAGE
    1. This clause applies to Digital Image(s) (including preview Image(s) and thumbnail(s) downloaded by you, delivered to you online, or delivered to you by email or other purely digital means.
    2. You agree to be bound by all the terms of this Agreement when you set up your user account with us, and you confirm your acceptance of these Terms and Conditions each time you download any Image, whether or not you have logged in or set up a user agreement.
  3. GRANT OF LICENCE
    1. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, we grant to you a non-transferable, non-exclusive or exclusive Licence (as agreed in writing), on payment of the Licence Fee, to reproduce the Image(s) during the licence period, in the territory and for the purposes specified in the Invoice.
    2. in all instances where an exclusive License has been granted, restrictions will apply solely to the Licensed image, and not extending to any out-takes or similar subject matter (similars). Unless otherwise agreed, restrictions will be limited to the medium, period, and territory of the license. For example, an exclusive license for a music CD cover in Germany would not restrict concurrent licensing of the same or similar images for other media or territories, such as a book cover in Germany or a music CD in France.
    3. Use of the Image(s) is strictly limited to the purpose, medium, licence period, print run, position, size, territory and any other terms agreed. Unless otherwise specified in the Invoice, the Licence is for single use, meaning a reproduction in one size for one edition of a single publication in one medium only, published in one language only. The licence period commences on the date specified on the Invoice (or if no date is specified, on the date of the Invoice itself) and is for the full duration specified on the Invoice, but the Licence only comes into effect on payment in full of the Licence Fee. If the Licence is for online use, no Licence for offline use is implied, and vice versa. For example, a Licence to reproduce Image(s) in a printed book does not imply any Licence to reproduce the Image(s) in an e-book. Digital use will be treated as a separate use from physical use.
    4. You may not grant sub-licences of any of the rights included in the Licence, or sub-contract any aspects of exploitation of the rights licensed to you, without our prior written consent. However, if you are an external freelance designer, you may grant sub-licences to End Users to reproduce the Image(s) on terms that prohibit those End Users from granting any further sub-licence and require those End Users to comply with all the terms of this Agreement. You may also sublicense reproduction rights to printers and other production suppliers solely to the extent necessary for production purposes.
    5. We reserve all rights in relation to the Image(s) that are not expressly granted to you under this Agreement, whether now known, or created later, and whether or not in the contemplation of the parties at the time of this Agreement.
    6. We may require you to cease all use of any of the Image(s) if we reasonably believe that your use of such Image(s) infringes the intellectual property rights of any third party, or breaches any applicable law or regulation. In this instance, we may, at our option either:
      1. Provide you with alternative Image(s) so as to avoid the infringement; or
      2. Terminate this Agreement immediately on written notice in respect of the relevant Image(s).
  4. RESTRICTIONS AND OBLIGATIONS
    1. You must comply with all applicable laws and regulations in performing your obligations and exercising your rights under this Agreement.
    2. You must not incorporate Image(s) (or any part of them) into a logo, trademark or service mark.

    5. Image(s) must not be reproduced more than once within any design, editorial piece, advertisement or other work product, unless expressly agreed by us in writing.
    6. A Licence to use an Image(s) on or in a product, including a book or magazine cover, does not imply any licence on your part to use the Image in the advertising or promotion of that product.
    7. You must not use Image(s) in a pornographic, obscene, defamatory, misleading, unlawful or offensive manner, whether directly or in context or by juxtaposition with other materials.
    8. You must comply with any special instructions or restriction on use notified to you by us before, after or at the time of delivery of the Image(s), either in the information or metadata accompanying the Image(s), the invoice or by any other means.

    10. The Image(s) must not be made available for use or distribution separately or detached from a product or web page. For example, the Image(s) may be used as an integral part of a web page design, but may not be made available for downloading separately or in a format designed or intended for storage or re-use by website users. Similarly, End Users may be provided with copies of the Image(s) as an integral part of your work product, but must not be provided with the Image(s) or permitted to use the Images separately.
    11. Image(s) may not be modified, reconfigured or repurposed for use in any mobile-directed web sites or mobile applications that are specifically created for viewing of material on mobile devices (apps), without our prior written consent which might require payment of an additional Licence Fee. For clarification, this restriction on mobile use is not breached if an Image that is licensed for web site use can be viewed via mobile devices, provided it is not so specifically modified, reconfigured or repurposed for this purpose.
    12. The Image(s) must not, unless expressly agreed by us in writing, be posted on social networking or file-sharing sites such as Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, Google Plus etc.

    2. You may store the Image(s) in a suitable digital asset management system, network configuration, or similar arrangement to allow them to be viewed within your organisation or within the End User's organisation for planning or production purposes, and to properly secure the Image(s) against unauthorised use, and allow no more than one copy of the Image(s) for back-up purposes. You must retain the copyright symbol, our name, the Image identification numbers, and any other information or metadata which may be embedded in the electronic files containing the original Image(s), when stored or published online.
    3. When the agreed license term has expired the Image(s), including any pre-press or pre-production copies, must be deleted from your and any End User's computer or other electronic storage systems.
  6. CREDITS
    1. Unless otherwise agreed, you must credit us and the contributor whenever the Image is used in the form indicated in the credit field or, if there is no such indication: [contributor's name]/ [our name]. If a credit line is omitted an additional fee equal to 50% of the original amount invoiced attributable to the Image(s) in question shall be payable by you. Failure to provide a credit may also breach the Contributor moral right to be identified under section 77 of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 and equivalent laws in other jurisdictions.
  7. PAYMENT
    1. No reproduction of any Image is fully authorised until we have received payment in full. Any reproduction by you, or the End User, before payment in full has been received constitutes an infringement of copyright and a breach of this Agreement entitling us to terminate this Agreement immediately on written notice to you.
    2. Unless otherwise agreed by us in writing, all Invoice(s) are payable by you within 30 days. If you do not make full payment of an Invoice on time we reserve the right to charge interest on the outstanding amount at the rate prescribed by the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 from the date payment was due until payment is made.
    3. All amounts due under this Agreement are exclusive of VAT, which shall, where applicable, be paid by you at the prevailing rates on the due date for payment and on receipt of a VAT Invoice from us.
    4. All payments to be made by you under this Agreement (except any deduction or withholding which is required by law) shall be paid free and clear of any deductions or withholdings for or on account of set-offs or counterclaims.
  8. MODEL AND OTHER RELEASES; CAPTIONS AND OTHER INFORMATION
    1. All contributors, on entering into contract with Trevillion, are solely responsible for arranging model and property releases where necessary for all supplied images, and to make such releases accessible upon request. Suppliers further agree to indemnify Trevillion against loss, cost, claims, proceedings, damage or expense caused to Trevillion as a result of any breach of the warranties and undertakings of this agreement. Trevillion enters into agreement with you on the basis that contributors are acting fully in accordance with their contractual obligations, and that all necessary model and property releases are arranged and available. However, Trevillion offers no warranties as to the existence of any model, property or other releases associated with the Image(s).
    2. You must satisfy yourself that all releases, consents, Licences or permissions as may be required for use of the Image(s) have been secured. Licensees are solely responsible for determining whether a release is sufficient for the proposed use or is required in connection with any proposed use of such Image(s) or if additional permissions or consents (such as a sensitive use release) are necessary from person, entity, association, guild or other organization.
    3. You may not use the images in any manner that would be deemed offensive to the model without first arranging a sensitive model release with Trevillion, the contributor and the model. Offensive uses include but are not limited to the use of an Image that involves or implies illegal activities, adverse medical conditions or procedures, other adverse health or mental health issues, substance abuse, welfare or economic aid, dating agencies, sexual preference, teen pregnancy, abortion and adoption, political or religious affiliation, smoking or alcohol usage, feminine hygiene, incontinence or impotence. If any Image featuring a model is used in:
      1. A manner that would lead a reasonable person to believe that the model personally uses or endorses a product or service; or
      2. In connection with a subject that would be unflattering or controversial to a reasonable person.
      You must accompany each use with a conspicuous statement that indicates that the person so pictured is a model and the image is used for illustrative purposes only.
    4. We give no warranties whatsoever as to the use of names, trade marks, logos, uniforms, registered or unregistered designs, artistic works or other material depicted in any Image which may be subject to intellectual property rights or other restrictions.
    5. We do not warrant the accuracy of the captioning, keywording, or any metadata or other information associated with the Image(s). Licensee must satisfy themselves that all such information is correct.
  9. AUDIT
    1. You shall keep separate and detailed records of all uses of the Image(s) to enable us to verify your compliance with the terms of this Agreement. After giving written notice of 10 days, we, or any other person authorised by us, may inspect your records, premises and/or servers during normal business hours, and take away copies to verify the information provided by you. This right of inspection shall remain in effect for a period of one year after the expiry or termination of this Agreement.
  10. INDEMNITY
    1. You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless against any claims, damages, losses, expenses or costs (including any direct, indirect or consequential losses, loss of profit and loss of reputation and all interest, penalties and legal costs and other expenses) arising in any manner whatsoever from or as a result of your unauthorised use of any Image supplied by us to you, or any other breach by you of any of your obligations under this Agreement.
