Summary
Unless explicitly mentioned otherwise, Martyn John Cartledge owns the exclusive copyright to all photographs and text appearing on the asp-photos.co.uk site. All images are copyright. No images are within the Public Domain. Any use of images outside of the guidelines outlined in this document is copyright infringement.
- PRIVATE USE, limited to: (a) personal, non-commercial or (b) sample, design, test, or layout use ("comp use"), i.e. ‘try before you buy’ can be done without permission.
All other uses require written permission obtained through email. - PUBLIC USE (diffusion by any means) for non-commercial purpose by all-volunteer/charity organisations will likely be granted free permission, but approval is required. Free permissions always require proper attribution (including an active backlink, if used on the Web), and no alterations.
- All others will need a licensing contract and payment. See how to license images (a special license is provided for use as classroom teaching materials).
PLEASE READ section A and the appropriate section B below for details BEFORE contacting us.
If your email doesn't clearly indicate that you've read all the relevant sections of this document, we will just refer you to it before proceeding further.
A. Image uses that require a license
Sold, or used in any way in connection with any activity where payment is earned. This includes, but is not limited to:
- use on behalf of any organization which has paid personnel (INCLUDING NON-PROFIT,educational, religious, or government),
- use in your professional work (for example internal presentations, newsletters, logo, stationary, cards, preaching materials, and teaching materials),
- use for advertising, editorial or promotional purposes (including any fund raising activities and auctions),
- use on a commercial, advertising or self-promotional web site,
- use on a product that is sold, or contains paid advertising.
The only exception is sample, design, test, or layout use ("comp use"), for the only purpose of evaluating how a finished piece would look like. If you have particular concerns about image use, or wish to reproduce any of the images for professional or commercial purposes, please email me to learn how you can receive a high resolution digital file delivered on the same day. Note that licensing fees start at £100 (minimum fee generally applies only for small sizes and/or number of copies, or some web uses), and that no free licenses are granted solely in exchange for credits or links.
B. Image uses that do not require a commercial license
1. PRIVATE USE for personal, non-commercial purpose is allowable when used to determine what is required for an order that will be placed with M J Cartledge/ASP
The above image usage DO NOT REQUIRE written authorization and apply only for the low resolution images that can be downloaded directly from the site.
Please note that these are for private use only. All other usage, including the distribution or reproduction of multiple copies, performance or otherwise use in a public way of the images or text REQUIRES WRITTEN AUTHORISATION.
2. PUBLIC USE (diffusion) for personal, non-commercial purpose requires permission
Permission will likely be granted for free for the following types of reproduction:
- Making derivative works such as paintings and drawing for personal or educational use
- Limited diffusion in personal educational documents such as school reports and thesis (for student only).
- Displaying on a personal non-commercial web page (this excludes self-promotional web pages) provided that you display next to the image: (a) copyright information and (b) an active HTML link to www.asp-photos.co.uk. A code like the following is appropriate:
<a href = "http://www.asp-photos.co.uk">
photo by M J Cartledge ASP</a>, all rights reserved.
Please note that this is not sufficient to just post the image with the border containing the imprint "© M J Cartledge/www.asp-photos.co.uk". You must create a hyperlink to asp-photos.co.uk.
However, you need to email us for authorization with ID numbers of the image(s) you wish to use, the details of your project, or the address of your finished web page. Please be sure to read the section General Conditions.
3 PUBLIC USE (diffusion) for all-volunteer organizations requires permission
Please pay attention to the fact that "all-volunteer" and "non-profit" are NOT the same. If you are an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff or membership fee, and you provide only free services or information, you will likely qualify to use free image for:
- The organization's brochure, newsletter or slide/Power Point presentation.
- Displaying on the organization's web page, provided that you display next to the image: (a) copyright information and (b) an active link to www.asp-photos.co.uk. A code like the following is appropriate:
<a href = "http://www.asp-photos.co.uk">
photo by M J Cartledge/www.asp-photos.co.uk</a>, all rights reserved.
All-volunteer organization image use REQUIRES WRITTEN AUTHORISATION and apply only for the dissemination of information. Free use will NOT be granted for fund raising activities, nor for ANY organization that has paid personnel or charges for services or membership. For consideration, email us with the following information: (a) Name, full address and background of the organization, (b) Intended usage for the image(s), (c) Address of the non-profit web site (if any). (d) State explicitly that nobody in your organization is paid (merely stating that they are not paid for the task for which image(s) are required is insufficient). Please be sure to read the section General Conditions.
