Terms & Conditions
Physical images
Possession of the physical image (estate prints, vintage prints, contact prints, transparencies) does not include the right of reprodution – this is retained by the Edward Quinn Archive.
Edward Quinn loaned physical prints and transparencies of his work to licensing clients and organisations that sometimes did not return them. These loaned prints and transparencies are labelled or marked with Edward Quinn stamps and remain the property of Edward Quinn Archive AG. Any physical prints or transparencies retrieved from any library or client cannot be sold without prior consent of Edward Quinn Archive AG.
Digital images for reproduction
The terms and conditions govern all contractual relations between Edward Quinn Archive AG and the client. The contract is finalized with the order and delivery of photogaphs to the client by email, download services or other digital means.
Grant of license
We grant to the client a non-transferable, non-exclusive license, on payment of the license fee, to reproduce the images during the license period, in the territory and for the purposes specified in the invoice.
Usage rights
Use of the images is limited to the purpose, medium, license period, print run, placement, size of licensed material, territory and any other terms agreed upon. Unless otherwise specified in the invoice, the license is for single use, meaning a reproduction in one size for one edition of a single publication in one medium only, published in one language only.
Destruction of digital images
When the product for which the images were licensed has been created, or after a period of 90 days – whichever is reached sooner – the images, including any pre-press or pre-production copies, must be promptly deleted from the client’s computer or other electronic storage systems.
Copyright of Edward Quinn Archive
The client must credit the Edward Quinn Archive as follows:
Photo Edward Quinn, © edwardquinn.com.
All copyrights are reserved. The client must additionally make sure that all permissions required for use of the images (for example, publicity rights in the case of advertising) have been secured.
Copyright of artworks and artists
If one or more works by artists are recognizable on the photograph in question, the client must obtain the copyright from the artist or the artist’s legal successor or the relevant collecting society. In this case, the client must add this supplementary information: © <artist> / © <estate administration> and © 2020, <name of the respective collecting society>.
Example:
Photo Edward Quinn, © edwardquinn.com – © Succession Picasso / 2020, ProLitteris, Zurich
License fees for works of art must be clarified by the client with the relevant collecting society or the artist or the artist’s estate.
Who may use the content
Only the client may use the content. The client may not sell, rent, loan, give, sublicense or otherwise transfer to anyone tand/orhe content or any right to reproduce the content.
Digital use
Digital use will be treated as a separate use from physical use, requiring payment of an additional fee to be confirmed in advance.
Social media use
The images must not, unless expressly agreed by us in writing, be posted on social networks or file-sharing sites such as Flickr, Plixi, YouTube, Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram, Twitpic, Picasa or Myspace.
Alterations to content
Images shall not be altered or manipulated, added to or have any part cropped or deleted without our prior written consent.
Low-resolution images for reference
Low-resolution images are for reference only and may not be used for any kind of reproduction.
Advertising
A license to use an image on or in a product, including a book or magazine cover, does not imply any right of license on the client’s part to use the image in the advertising or promotion of that product, except as part of an image of the product itself showing the image in its context.
Complimentary copies
The client must provide a complimentary copy of the publication in which the reproduction appears. One copy shall be sent to the Archive free of charge and without reminder; further copies may be supplied at an agreed fee.
Inaccuracies or errors
We do not guarantee the accuracy of the captioning, keywording or any other information associated with the images. The client’s use of any information published on this website is entirely at the client’s own risk, for which we shall not be liable.
