Photos taken by our photographers will be provided to the organisation who will post them in their password-protected environment. This is only accessible to participants who attended the event.
If the organisation wants to use your pictures (or pictures of you) for promotional use they will contact you to ask explicit permission for this.
Take-Down Requests
After pictures are posted, participants have a 10 day grace period after which the pictures become available for download, during this 10 day period they can send requests with the picture ID that they wish taken down. The person can specify if they want the picture entirely removed or simply have their face obscured/blurred.
Opt-Out
You can let us know you want to opt-out of pictures by filling out the box on the practical form. If you change your mind at a later point and want to opt-in or opt-out you can do so by speaking to the designated crew member at the event.
Choosing this option means:
- Photographers will attempt to avoid taking pictures of you
- Photographers will work with the organisation to remove pictures of you from the batch before posting to the site.
Be aware that if you tick this box we will attempt to take no pictures of you. As such this decision cannot be reversed at a later point.
Sharing/Social Media
- If you are contacted by the organisation or a fellow participant with a take-down request, you must respect the request and remove it from your social media.
- You cannot use pictures shared to participants behind the password on social media during the 10 day grace period.
- If (after the 10 day grace period) you want to post a picture on social media, you need to ask permission of every person in the picture, including people appearing in the background.
- You are only allowed to take phone pictures/selfies at the event during downtime and only of yourself and people who have explicitly said yes. Make sure there are no other people in your background!
