• You accept that we may decide not to allow publication at our absolute discretion.
• You warrant that all contributions are lawful and do not infringe any third-party rights and that you will indemnify us for any breach of this warranty.
• You license us to use the material you provide on our website and in our magazines and for multiple uses. You also license us to use the material on our social media platforms (for promotional reasons) and for multiple uses. However, your images will always remain under your copyright (you may publish them elsewhere), and you will always be credited when we publish them. We will never share your contributions with any third party.
• We reserve the right to crop any photographs you submit at our discretion in order to fit the magazines’ design and format.
• We reserve the right to share your identity with any third party claiming that any material submitted by you violates copyright laws.
• We do not provide compensation for submitted images; we only compensate for special features and articles. However, we strive to ensure that photographers who submit images through our submission forms receive full promotion via the magazines and our social media pages.
Article contributions
We are delighted to receive your contributions, but only on the following conditions:
• You agree that we may exercise editorial control over the material and may decide not to allow publication at our absolute discretion.
• You warrant that all contributions are lawful and do not infringe the rights of any third party, and you will indemnify us for any breach of that warranty.
• You license us to use the material you provide on our website, in magazines, and on social media for promotional purposes more than once. However, your images will always remain under your copyright (you can publish them elsewhere), and you will always receive credit when we publish them. We will never share your contributions with any third party.
• We reserve the right to crop any photographs you submit at our discretion to fit the magazines’ design and format.
• We retain the right to disclose your identity to any third party, claiming that any material submitted by you violates copyright laws.
• All articles submitted to our magazines must be exclusive. Articles that have been published elsewhere or will be published in the next six months cannot be accepted. Additionally, we cannot accept copy/paste or parts of articles from other sources, nor articles created by AI.
• Once your article has been accepted, it cannot be reproduced or used in any form of media, including eBooks, books, magazines, websites (including your own), etc., for six months after its first publication. After six months, you may add the article to your website, but it cannot be used in the format it was published in our magazines, as our article design is fully copyrighted and cannot be reproduced without our consent. This does not prohibit the publication of your images; you can publish them whenever and wherever you wish. We will provide you with special material to promote your article through your website and social media.
