Exposure One Competition and Website Terms of Use

Last Modified: 08/28/2023

Welcome to the Exposure One Awards

Each Exposure One Awards competition (collectively, the “Competitions” and each, the “Competition”) is operated by Creative Resource Collective, LLC (“CRC,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” as applicable). We are also artists and photographers, and we value your creative pursuits and contributions to this diverse hobby and profession. These Exposure One Competition Terms of Use (these “Terms of Use”) govern your participation in the Competition and constitute an agreement between you and us. We encourage you to contact us with any questions about these Terms of Use or about your participation in the Competition.
 
By accessing or using the Competition website (the “Site”), or by submitting an Entry to the Competition, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy (found at Privacy Policy) (the “Privacy Policy”). If you do not wish to be bound by these Terms of Use, please do not use this Site or participate in the Competition. By accessing and using the Site or by entering the Competition, you agree to these Terms of Use. We may change these Terms of Use from time to time, and the latest version will always be posted on the Site.

How to Enter the Competition

We welcome participation by any individual content creator at least eighteen (18) years of age other than affiliates, employees, or family members of CRC or any Competition Jury member.
 
To enter the Competition, you must:
 

  1. Complete the required registration information on the Site;
  2. Submit your Competition entrance materials (each individual submission, an “Entry”) in the form and format and with the required information for the specific Competition category for which you are submitting an Entry (defined below), as set forth on the Site; and
  3. Pay the entry fee for the specific Competition category, as set forth on the Site. Entry fees are non-refundable unless otherwise set forth in these Terms of Use.
    i.
    From time to time, we may permit entrants to purchase credits that can be used to pay for the entry fee for a participating Competition. Once purchased by a Site user, those credits may only be redeemed as payment for entries into participating competitions within the calendar year the credits were purchased. The number of credits needed for a particular competition may differ from competition to competition and the number of credits needed for an entry will be calculated during the process when the user submits for entry to the competition. Credits may not be simultaneously utilized with other discounts or any rewards earned or made available through the Site. The credits do not have any value outside of the competitions, are not transferable to any other person and do not accrue interest. Credits are not refundable and are not redeemable for money or monetary value except where permitted to be used (and then may only be used) toward satisfaction of the entry fee for a competition. The Site or each Competition may set out or require additional terms and conditions pertaining to the use of credits, discounts or rewards.
To enter the Competition, you will be asked to provide certain registration details and information. You represent that all information you provide with your Entry is accurate, complete, and not misleading. You agree that all information you provide to us is governed by our Privacy Policy. If your registration information changes, you should update us because, if you don’t, we may not be able to contact you about an award you may win.
 
The periods during which Entries are accepted, judging occurs, and winners and awards are announced are subject to change without notice.

Judging

Deadlines for Entries will be stated on the Site. Each Entry will be reviewed and evaluated by an initial committee of our staff and at least one external, independent judge (the “Nominating Committee”). The Nominating Committee will nominate Entries for judging by a panel of industry professionals and experts (the “Jury”); however, if no Entries satisfy the Nominating Committee’s standards for a particular Competition category, we may cancel that category, and we will either refund your entry fees for that Entry or, with your consent, reassign your Entry to a different category. All nominated Entries will be reviewed by the Jury. The Jury will select one or more nominated Entry or Entries as the winner in each category, and the Jury may select additional Entries for awards or other recognition. Additional details will be posted on the Site. Certain category winners and other award recipients will be eligible to receive a monetary award The Jury shall have sole discretion as to the selection of award winners (other than the People’s Vote Awards, as described below), including judging methodologies and criteria.
 
All Entries nominated for judging will be automatically entered into the “People’s Vote Awards.” for each Competition category, and the Entry will be posted on the Site or affiliated websites for voting by members of the public. There is no monetary award for winning a People Vote Award.
 
Members of the Nominating Committee and Jury may change at any time, without notice. Contacting or lobbying any member of the Nominating Committee or Jury, directly or indirectly, is strictly prohibited and may lead to disqualification of your Entry or Entries.

Awards

Each Exposure One Competition lists the awards and/or benefits which will be given to award winners based on their entry level and distinction, on the competition landing page. Additional information regarding the breakdown of such awards (i.e. monetary awards) can be found on the
rules page.
 
Monetary awards will be issued by check, wire transfer, or other payment method, at our sole discretion. We may need additional information to be able to issue your award, and if you don’t provide such details, the delivery of your award may be delayed or withheld.
 
All Entries shall also include a reward credit worth between five (5) and ten (10) percent of the fees paid for such Entry. The exact percentage earned will be displayed on each contest “Entry Fees & Pricing” section. These credits shall have no cash value and may not be redeemed for anything other than as a credit on future Competition Entry fees. Such credits will be subject to expiration in accordance with further rules and qualifications established by CRC and posted on the Site or provided by email. If the Competition is discontinued or if there is a change of control of CRC, such rewards credits may immediately expire.
 
Award winners and other honorees will be listed on the Site. Award winners will be notified by e-mail. Winners of monetary or other valuable awards are solely responsible for any costs associated with acceptance and receipt of such award, including, without limitation, wire transfer fees, currency exchange fees, and any national, state, provincial, county, and local taxes. Monetary awards will be paid in United States dollars. We will not offer any alternative awards or prizes.
 
If your award includes a trophy, certificate, or cash prize that will need to be sent to you either physically or digitally (i.e. wire transfer), or should you purchase a trophy, it is essential that you provide us with the correct and complete delivery information. We will not be responsible for any fees or costs associated with resending such items in the event of a failed delivery due to incorrect or incomplete delivery information you provided. We will resend the prizes won or trophies ordered at your cost, less any fees which may have been incurred by Exposure One for the initial failed delivery attempt. Please note that if you refuse delivery or to pay duties or taxes, or if you claim to have never received your prizes or trophy even though there is proof of delivery, we will consider our obligation to you as fulfilled and will maintain no responsibilities for issuing replacements or refunds.
 
Some award winners and other artists, at our discretion, may receive a public profile in Exposure One Artist Directory. The duration within which an Artist’s profile may be included in the Artist Directory is the sole discretion of CRC and is subject to change without notice. If an Artist does not wish to have their profile be included in the Artist Directory, please email [email protected] with a request stating such.

Eligibility and Additional Rules

Some Competition categories or contests are open only to professional or amateur content creators. We define “professional” as an individual who has earned income from photography or videography services or selling their own photographs or other media content at any time. We define “non-professional” as an individual who has never earned income from their photography. If we suspect that you have improperly entered an amateur contest, we reserve the right to request confirmatory documentation.
 
If we discover that any award winner or honoree is not eligible for the Competition or for a specific contest, that entrant shall be immediately disqualified from the Competition or the applicable contest. Any disqualified entrant shall be immediately removed from the list of winners and honorees, if applicable. We reserve the right to bar any individual from future participation in the Competition following any breach of these Terms and Conditions, as determined in our sole discretion.
 
Any additional rules, qualifications, and requirements listed on the Site shall also apply to the Competition as if they were listed in these Terms of Use. In case of any conflict between these Terms of Use and any additional rules, qualifications, or requirements listed on the Site, these Terms of Use shall control.

We Care About Your Intellectual Property Rights

We respect your rights as a photographer and artist and we do not become the owner of your work when you submit an Entry. We will never sell any Entry to a third-party (i.e. media outlets). We will not claim any copyright or moral rights to your work submitted to the Competition.
 
By entering the Competition, you acknowledge that we may display your Entry on the Site or elsewhere, and, if we do so, we will include credit information acknowledging you as the photographer or artist. However, our accidental failure to properly credit your work will not be deemed a breach of these Terms of Use unless you notify us about the oversight, and we don’t correct the mistake within 10 days.
 
To allow us to administer and promote CRC, the Competitions and your Entry, you grant certain rights and licenses to us. For example, we may display, or authorize the display of, your Entry for any public relations activities to promote CRC and/or the Competition which include, but are not limited, displaying, or authorize the display of, your Entry on the Site or posting it on social media accounts or other websites or displaying your Entry in an exhibition or publishing it in a digital or physical book, whether such display is solely related to a Competition or not (collectively, “Permitted Displays”). As such, and for any purpose related to CRC, the Competitions or promotion of your Entry only, you grant us, our affiliates and our sponsors, and each of their and our successors and assigns, a worldwide, nonexclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free, sublicensable license (the “Permitted Displays License”) to use, display, modify, publish, and distribute your Entry (in whole or in part) and to incorporate it into any of the Permitted Displays set forth in the preceding sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) the Permitted Displays License is a license limited to Permitted Displays and does not grant us the right to use your Entry in any other way other than in a Permitted Display as set forth in this paragraph, and (2) we shall not be liable to you for any royalties resulting from or arising out of our promotion of the Competitions, including without limitation, any promotion of the Competitions or CRC that encompasses the incorporation of your Entry in a Permitted Display.
 
Additionally, after each Competition, we issue a press release including select Entries to unaffiliated third-party outlets (i.e., media outlets) in order to provide exposure for artists who enter our Competitions. Upon doing so, we will provide such third-party outlets with the Entry’s credit information so that they may properly attribute the image to the artist. Your trust in Exposure One is of the utmost importance and we do not take issues regarding attributing your images lightly. Having said this, the failure of any third-party outlet to properly credit your work shall not be deemed a breach of these Terms of Use and we shall have no liability for such third-party’s failure; provided, however, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause such third-party outlet to correct any mistakes that are brought to our attention in writing.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may request in writing that your work remain anonymous, and if you make such request or request that we delete your personal information pursuant to the Privacy Policy, your Entry will be credited to an anonymous artist when displayed by us on the Site or elsewhere. While we have the ability to delete the Entry and credit information from the Site, if a request is made to change the credit information after any press releases are distributed, we do not guaranty and shall not be liable for, any third-party outlet’s failure to delete an Entry or the artist’s credit information.
 
We do not receive any payment, fee or royalties for our delivery of Entries via press releases to third-party outlets, however, we do not guaranty any relationship between a third-party outlet and any other outlet that re-runs the third-party outlet’s story. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely liable for protecting your intellectual property rights in your work at all times.

You represent and warrant that:
 

  1. You own or control all rights in and to the Entry and have the right to grant the license and other rights granted herein. You will cooperate with any request to prove your ownership of the Entry (e.g., providing the RAW file associated with such Entry).
