TERMS APPLYING TO BOTH RIGHTS MANAGED AND ROYALTY FREE IMAGES

15. Image Source warrants the digital copy of the Images in the form duly purchased by you or your employer to be free from technical defects for 90 days from delivery. The sole and exclusive remedy for a breach of the foregoing warranty is the replacement of the digital copy of the Images or refund of the purchase price, at Image Source’s sole option. Image Source shall not, however, be liable if defects arise as a result of any modification, variation or addition to the Images not performed by us or caused by any abuse, corruption or incorrect use of the Images with equipment or software which is incompatible. IMAGE SOURCE MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. OUR LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY LOSSES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU ORIGINALLY PAID FOR THE IMAGES. Some States do not permit the exclusion of implied warranties, and you may have other rights, which may vary from State to State. NEITHER IMAGE SOURCE NOR ITS LICENSORS SHALL BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR OTHER DAMAGES (EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES) ARISING OUT OF THIS LICENCE, THE USAGE OF THE IMAGES INCLUDING ANY CLAIM FOR LOST PROFITS OR LOST SAVINGS, OR FOR ANY CLAIM OF A THIRD PARTY OR OTHERWISE. HOWEVER, NOTHING IN THIS LICENCE LIMITS LIABILITY FOR FRAUDULENT MISREPRESENTATION OR OUR LIABILITY TO YOU IN THE EVENT OF DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM OUR NEGLIGENCE.

16. It is a condition of this Agreement that you obtain all necessary rights, model releases or consents which may be required on top of the model releases and property releases obtained by Image Source already, which are indicated on each Image’s preview page under “Release Available", for reproduction and use of the Images. We make no warranties with regard to the use of names, people, buildings, trade marks or copyright material depicted in any Image, or to the accuracy of any metadata, including, but not limited to, keywords and captions, with any Image. Furthermore, ensure that you examine the Image you intend to use for possible defects before sending the Image for reproduction. Image Source shall not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by you or any third party arising from any alleged or actual defect in any Image or its metadata or in any way from its reproduction.

17. Without prejudice to Image Source’s other rights and remedies, the licence and your right to use the Images shall automatically terminate, without prior notice or refund of any money paid, if you breach any express or implied term of this Agreement. In the event of termination, you must immediately cease to use and destroy or delete all copies of the Images or, at Image Source’s request, return them to Image Source. You agree to indemnify Image Source and hold Image Source harmless against all claims arising out of any breach by you of this Agreement or for unpermitted use of any Images.

18. All rights to the Images are owned by Image Source and / or its licensors and are protected internationally by copyright and other applicable laws. Image Source and its licensors retain all rights not expressly granted under this Agreement. You may be held legally responsible for any copyright infringement that is caused or encouraged by your failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement.

19. Use of the Images must be in compliance with all applicable laws, statutes and regulations. Image Source reserves the right to discontinue the use of any Image for any reason and elect to replace the Image with an alternative Image. Upon notice of any discontinuance of a Licence for a particular Image, you and your client, if applicable, agree not to use the Image in the future. If any part of this Agreement is found void and unenforceable, it will not affect the validity of the remaining terms of the Agreement, which shall remain valid and enforceable according to its terms. This Agreement represents the entire Agreement between the parties relating to its subject matter and may not be amended except in writing signed by an authorised representative of both parties.

20. If you fail to pay all sums due within the time specified by Image Source, we may add a charge of one-and-one-half percent (1.5%) per month, or such lesser amount as is allowed by law, on any unpaid balance until payment is received.

21. The laws of England and Wales whose courts are the courts of exclusive jurisdiction govern this Agreement, save that Image Source shall have the right to bring proceedings in any jurisdiction to obtain injunctive or other relief against you in the event that, in the opinion of Image Source, such action is necessary or desirable.
