Content, Media and Intellectual Property
Who owns what you upload, the rights you give Artistover to display it, and how to report an infringement.
Version 2.0 · Effective 28 July 2026
The official legal document is provided in English.
Artistover is operated by Artistover Limited, a company registered in England and Wales with company number 17285593, whose registered office is at 167-169 Great Portland Street, 5th Floor, London, W1W 5PF, United Kingdom.
This policy covers text, photographs, video, audio, logos, menus, floor plans, documents and every other piece of content published on Artistover.
1. You keep what you own
You keep ownership of the content you upload. Publishing it on Artistover does not transfer copyright or any other right to us.
2. The rights you give us
To show your listing to customers and to run the marketplace, you grant Artistover a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, resize, crop, format and display your content, and to include it in Artistover marketing, marketplace collections, editorial features, social posts and search results.
The licence lasts while the content is published, and for a reasonable period afterwards for backups, records, and material already distributed. Where we have used your content in a printed or published campaign, we cannot withdraw it retrospectively.
We will not sell your content to a third party as a standalone asset, and we will not present your work as someone else work.
3. You must have the rights
Only upload content you own or are licensed to use. That is the whole of this section, and it is where most problems start.
- Photographs taken by a photographer are usually owned by the photographer. Paying for a shoot does not automatically give you the right to publish the images commercially. Check your agreement.
- Images of a venue you worked at may need the venue permission as well as the photographer permission.
- Recognisable people in your images should have agreed to their image being used to promote your business.
- Music in a video needs a licence covering that use. A track being popular does not make it free.
- Logos and brand names of clients you have worked with need their permission before you display them.
- Content generated by an AI tool still has to be checked. You are responsible for what you publish, regardless of how it was produced.
4. Images of children
Do not publish images of identifiable children without the consent of a person with parental responsibility, and do not publish them in a way that could put a child at risk.
Providers working with children should be particularly careful about publishing event photographs, even where the parent has consented to the photograph being taken.
5. Our content and our brand
The Artistover name, logo, brand, software, design system, taxonomy, and the structure and selection of the marketplace database, belong to us or our licensors.
Do not use our brand in a way that implies endorsement or partnership we have not given, do not register a confusingly similar name or domain, and do not copy the platform or its design.
Providers may say truthfully that they are listed on Artistover, and may use any badge we supply for that purpose in the form we supply it.
6. Reporting an infringement
If you believe content on Artistover infringes your copyright, your trademark or another right you hold, write to contact@artistover.com with the following.
- Your name, your organisation and how to contact you.
- A description of the work or the mark you own, and evidence that you own it or are authorised to act for the owner.
- The exact location of the infringing content on Artistover, with links.
- A statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the owner, an agent or the law.
- A statement that the information you have given is accurate.
We review reports promptly and remove or restrict content where a claim appears valid. We tell the person who published it what has been removed and why, unless the law prevents us.
7. Counter-notice
If your content was removed and you believe that was wrong, you can send a counter-notice explaining why you have the right to publish it, with evidence.
Where the dispute is genuine and both sides maintain their position, we may keep the content down until the two sides resolve it between themselves or a court decides. Artistover is not able to adjudicate ownership of a copyright or a trademark.
8. Repeat infringement
Accounts that repeatedly publish infringing content are suspended and then closed. Deliberately publishing someone else work as your own is treated as a misleading listing as well as an infringement.
