PHOTO GALLERY AGREEMENT

REPTILE-TREASURES has established the web site Photo Gallery and Photo Contests sections  to receive reptile-related photo images (the "Images") from individuals (the "Image Authors") and to display and make those Images available to visitors to the web site (the "Image Viewers").

This PHOTO GALLERY AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") confirms the terms and conditions upon which an Image Author may submit Images to the Photo Gallery. 

BEFORE SUBMITTING PHOTOS OR GRAPHICS TO THE PHOTO GALLERY, CAREFULLY READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. BY SUBMITTING IMAGES, YOU ARE AGREEING TO BE BOUND BY, AND ARE BECOMING A PARTY TO, THIS AGREEMENT AND THOSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT AND AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, DO NOT SUBMIT IMAGES..

1. Images.  Reptile-Treasures will have complete discretion as to whether and how long an Image is displayed in the Photo Gallery. Reptile-Treasures reserves the right to alter any Image submitted for the Photo Gallery.

2. Agreements of Image Authors. By submitting an Image to Reptile-Treasures, the Image Author grants to Reptile-Treasures a perpetual non-exclusive, royalty-free and irrevocable right to place that Image in the Photo Gallery and to use, reproduce, copy, publish, display, distribute, adapt, modify or otherwise exploit that Image and to incorporate that Image in other works and to sell, license or otherwise commercially utilize that Image.
