Rights

The following definitions and additional terms shall apply to any licence granted (although in the event of any inconsistency the terms of the invoice shall govern). The rights are granted to you by iGROOVER - Picturesnap on a non-exclusive basis and are personal to you ("the User") and may not be sub-licensed or assigned.

This is where a licence is granted for a specified purpose, territory and duration as specified on our invoice to you. For example this may be in respect of the following:

* Editorial use - for reproduction in specified publications or media

Montage

The User may only use the image to create or to assist in the creation of a new image different from the original image ("Montage"). For example, the User takes part of the image and uses this in another work.

Model and Property Releases/clearances

The rights granted to you with an image by iGROOVER PICTURESNAP do not include a license, consent or release in respect of any persons, places, property or subject matter depicted in an image. You must satisfy yourself that all necessary rights, consents or permissions as may be required for your use of the image have been secured. If necessary you should contact the image-creator to seek any consent required. This is true of all services that have an advanced booking fee but is also true of any service that the booking fee might have been dismissed on ( such as charity events ) If a cancelation is made but then re booked for another mutually agreeable  date with in 12 months, a new booking fee  would be payable as if it was a new Job. However if this happens inside 12moths  we will also credit your original booking fee towards your final outstanding Balance. This also stands through out your payment liability: Example You have to cancel your wedding, due to sickness, two weeks before the event then although the full balance must be paid,  you will still be able to book another date that is mutually agreeable to both yourself and our photographer, if this is done within 12 months and all payments are unto date in accordance to this agreement , then no further payment will be required other then a fresh Booking fee.
