Terms & Conditions
Introduction
1 These Terms set out the terms and conditions which apply between you, the prospective registrant (to be referred, to in these Terms, as "you" or the "Registrant") and Sportsbeat Images, a Limited Company trading on this website as richardlanephotography.co.uk (and referred, to in these Terms, as "we", "us" or "Richard Lane Photography").

Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Richard Lane Photography, these Terms shall apply in full.

We may modify these Terms from time to time without notice to you. You should check these Terms each time you login on the Website as the then current Terms shall apply to any use you make of the Website on that occasion.
 
 
What you may do with photographs on this Website:
2 Except as set out in the paragraphs 3 and 4 below, you may download, store and use any photograph on this Website as follows:

You may use any photograph in its original and complete form as provided by us in your newspaper, journal, magazine or other literature or work in its original and complete form providing such publication is of a reputable nature and published in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations.
You may make minor adjustments to the photographs for the purposes of "touching-up" ready for publication or if required to accommodate other publication needs such as limited space or to remove insignificant features. However all such adjustments must be made in good faith and must not, in any manner, distort the quality, overall composition, record of events or impression of the photograph.
All photographs must be accompanied by a mandatory by-line in the following form: Sportsbeat Images/sportsbeatimages.com eg. Richard Lane/sportsbeatimages.com This applies both to photographs when they are published and to photographs while being stored, whether in hard copy or on any disk or computer memory.
 
 
3 You may not:
provide or give access to any of the photographs to any other person for their commercial use;
except as set out in paragraph 2(b) and 4, modify, edit or use the photographs or combine them with any other text, graphic or other work or associate the photographs with any materials which may be deemed defamatory, libellous, pornographic or obscene or in any unlawful work or in any unlawful manner.
Extra conditions which apply in relation to certain photographs including those taken or relating to the English Premier League (soccer) or the Nationwide Football League and FIA motorsports.
 
 
 
4 Photographs to which this paragraph applies will be identified on the Website. These photographs may only be reproduced in accordance with the terms of a specific licensing agreement under which the photographs were taken by Sportsbeat Images or any of its photographers. You must, therefore, comply with the following:

You may alter the photographs using:
the exercise known generally in the photographs industry as flipping;
the exercise known generally in the photographic industry as "cropping" provided that the same is performed in good faith and not so as to distort the meaning or the circumstances depicted in the photograph;
manipulation which is evidently (and which could not reasonably be considered other than) fun harmless and an editorial means of telling a story;
standard computerised "enhancement" in the form of minor alterations to remove a disfigurement such as flapping shirt coming into edge of frame; or
computer-generated composite players - accompanied where necessary by suitable "health warnings" to assist any reader or viewer of the picture in identifying the image clearly as artificial; You may also alter the photographs by presenting a player as employed by another club than the club to which he is registered at the time of publication but only in order to anticipate the post-transfer photocall in circumstances where the transfer of that player's registration has been officially announced or confirmed by the transferee club.
However and for the avoidance of doubt you may not alter photograph by:
the removal of sponsors' logos or other brand imagery from any material depicted in the photograph; or
presenting a player in the shirt or other garment or bearing the logo of a club other than the club to which he is registered at the time of publication or having first removed the shirt or other garment or logo of the club to which he is registered at the time of publication.
If you wish to use or reproduce the photographs for any other purpose or in any other manner whatsoever, you may only do so with prior written consent obtained from Sportsbeat Images and the relevant governing body.
