All our users are required to select their specific user category during registration. It is your legal responsibility under this contract to ensure that you are selecting the correct user category. If you are unsure as to which user category best defines you, please contact Climate Outreach.
Guest users may view and curate images, but not download or obtain images.
Our ‘Non-Commercial Users’ are defined as one of the following three categories, and once registered may view, curate into lightboxes, download or otherwise obtain all images:
a) A third-party editorial media publication or platform (print or digital) using images editorially in journalism of climate change. Verified editorial media users may on occasion also get advance access to press release-linked material.
b) A third-party charity/non-profit/NGO communicating about climate change.
c) A third-party individual, educational or research organization using images for non-commercial educational purposes about climate change.
Our ‘Commercial Users’ are defined as follows:
d) Any other third party for-profit commercial brand, business, company, organization, entity or individual that does not fall into categories a), b), or c) above.
e) Where the usage is commercial (advertising etc) by a user who would otherwise usually fall into categories a), b), or c) above (for example an out-of-context non-editorial use by a media publication to advertise themselves, or an NGO wishing to sell prints of an image to generate revenue, etc).
