1. What Content This Covers
This release applies to Content that includes your image, voice, or likeness, whether taken by:
- A professional photographer or videographer hired for the Trip;
- A trip host, guide, or creator leading the Trip;
- Other guests on the Trip;
- You, if you upload or share your own Trip photos or videos with Byline Travel (for example, through our app, a shared album, or by email); or
- You, if you upload a profile photo to your Byline account that was not taken during the Trip. We may display this photo to identify you as a guest who attended a Trip — for example, on a trip page, in a guest roster, or alongside a review.
2. Rights You Grant to Byline Travel
You grant Byline Travel, Inc. (“Byline,” “we,” “us”) a worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, non-exclusive, transferable, and sublicensable right and license to use, reproduce, edit, crop, and display the Content described above, in whole or in part, for:
- Marketing and promotional purposes, including our website, social media, email, advertising, and print materials; and
- Internal and product purposes, including our app, guest communications, and trip planning materials.
We may combine Content with other images, text, or video, and may edit it for length, format, or style. We are under no obligation to use any Content.
3. No Compensation or Credit
You will not receive payment, royalties, or credit for our use of the Content. You waive any right to inspect or approve the finished use, or to any claim for compensation arising from that use.
4. Release of Claims
You release Byline, its employees, and its partners from any claims related to the use of the Content as described above, including any claims for defamation, invasion of privacy, or infringement of moral rights or rights of publicity, to the extent permitted by law.
5. Guests Under 18
If you add a Guest under the age of 18 to your Trip application, you represent and confirm that you are that Guest's parent or legal guardian. By agreeing to this release, you are agreeing to it both on your own behalf and on behalf of that minor Guest, and you accept full responsibility for that representation.
If you are not the minor Guest's parent or legal guardian, you may not agree to this release on their behalf. In that case, Byline requires a signed authorization from the minor Guest's parent or legal guardian before the minor Guest can be confirmed on the Trip.
6. Requesting Removal
If you'd like Byline to stop using a specific piece of Content going forward, contact us at privacy@bylinetravel.com. We'll make reasonable efforts to honor the request for future use, but material already published (for example, in a printed brochure or a past social post) may not be recoverable.
