Who can take part?

Anyone can take part. Professional photographers and members of the Hearing-Sensitive University working group are excluded. The prerequisite is that the photo is submitted as a digital file on CD or by email (hoersensible@uol.de).

Copyright 

The participant assures that he or she owns all rights to the submitted photo, that the photo is free of third-party rights and that no personal rights are violated in the depiction of persons. If one or more persons are recognisably depicted in the photo, the persons concerned must agree to the photo being published. The participant will provide written confirmation of the above on request. Should third parties nevertheless assert claims for infringement of their rights, the participant shall indemnify the organisers against all claims.

Liability 

The Hearing-Sensitive University working group accepts no liability for the loss of or any damage to the photos or files submitted.

Granting of rights 

By submitting their photos, each participant grants the organiser free of charge the non-exclusive rights of use, unlimited in terms of space, time and content, including the right to edit the submitted photos for the competition, reporting on it (regardless of the media, i.e. print and online, among others), public relations work of and for the photo competition(s), exhibition posters, invitations, exhibitions, e-cards and, if applicable, first editions of catalogues and books. Should photos be utilised for further commercial purposes outside the competition, e.g. for the production of merchandising products, the participant will receive an offer to conclude an agreement to this effect.

Data protection 

The personal data submitted by the entrants will be passed on to participating third parties, such as magazine editors or exhibition organisers, in the event of publication of the images as part of the photo competition (reporting on this, award ceremony, etc.). The entrant expressly agrees to this.
