Photo Usage Rights

All photographs and video taken by the ÂÌñÒùÆÞ Marketing and Communications Department or outside photographers hired to photograph for ÂÌñÒùÆÞ photo and video shoots or events remain the property of ÂÌñÒùÆÞ. Aquinas shall have the irrevocable, non-exclusive right to exercise any and all rights granted by the United States Copyright Act, including, but not limited to, the right to reproduce, display, distribute, and transmit the Work throughout the world, in any media now known or later developed, and to create derivative works.

 

Photo Releases

Photos and video taken in public places, for purposes of news or general information, do not require photo releases. Photos and video used to advertise products or services of the university may not require releases when the focus of the photo or video is a location or event, not a person.

When an individual's face is featured in a way that is clearly recognizable and appears to endorse ÂÌñÒùÆÞ, the best practice is to obtain a signed release from the Marketing and Communications Department. Staff may obtain and store releases over and above these guidelines if they feel it is in their best interest.
