We may, at our discretion change, remove, suspend or discontinue any aspect of our services at any time including the availability of any content (e.g. a community forum may be withdrawn). Whilst we will do our best to make all content available to all users of our services, some content may not be available to users from all countries.
Using our services
Our content
Our content, trade marks, copyright, patents, logos, domain names and other related intellectual property rights or other features of our brand belong to us or to our licensors. Your use of our services does not grant you any rights in our or our licensors’ intellectual property whether for commercial or non-commercial use.

(a) you may use our services for personal, private and non-commercial purposes; and
(b) you must not commercially exploit, or sell any content appearing on our services (this does not apply to any user content posted by you and in which you retain ownership rights – see paragraph on user generated content below).
In consideration for the rights that we have granted you under these terms of use, you permit us to provide advertising and other information to you, including permitting our third party affiliates to do the same.
Third Party Content
Third party content included as part of our services, is licensed to you either under these website terms of use or through such third party terms and conditions that will be made known to you as and when they become relevant (e.g. if you use online video events you may be required to accept additional terms and conditions before you can use these services).
Costs of using our services
We provide our users with a variety of services. To benefit fully from our services, we may occasionally require you to download our content and/or call our service providers. If there are charges associated to any of these services, we will make it clear before you incur any such charges and you will be responsible for any charges incurred from that point on.
Changes to our terms
At any time, we may amend these terms of use to ensure that we remain compliant with relevant laws and regulations and to ensure that we are constantly improving your experience in using our services, so please ensure that you check our terms of use frequently. By continuing to use our services after any changes are made, you are accepting those changes and will be bound by them.

Users of our services may submit, post and/or upload content (including comments and pictures) to various parts of our services. In posting your content on our services, you confirm to us that you are the owner or have the consent from the owner to post the content and it does not violate the privacy rights, copyright and other intellectual property rights, contract rights or any other rights of any person.
By submitting content, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free and fully sub-licensable right and licence to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform and display such content that you post (in whole or part) and/or to incorporate it in other works in any form, media or technology, and you waive any moral rights you may have in, or to be identified as the author, of such content.

Images of children are strictly regulated on our service. We allow them but must ensure that they comply with strict guidelines, including that they should not be sexualised in any way, and that they are posted by the child’s immediate family. In many cases we find that parents or relatives upload pictures of their children in good faith, unaware that these might be copied and misused, or that there are privacy issues around their use on the internet. We remove them in the best interest of the child, and to protect the parents. Unfortunately, we can’t always tell for sure if a picture is that of a minor and, when in doubt, we’d rather err on the side of caution
If you believe that your rights have been infringed in relation to your content or that your content posted by other users is in breach of these above rules, contact us with details of the complaint and we will investigate.

Community Guidelines
JB Photography welcomes and encourages all fans to comment and share their opinion. However, certain comments will not be tolerated if they are not legal or do not add an interesting opinion, value, positivity, knowledge or constructive conversation.
Comments that will not be tolerated and will be deleted without notice at our sole discretion include those that contain crude language including swear words and sexually explicit language, threatening, abusive or offensive language, racist language, language that offends any part of the LGBT community, sexist language, content in any other language but English, content that preaches, encourages or incites religious or ethnic hatred, content that links to websites that promote the above, knowingly false or misleading content, defamatory language and defamatory comments about others, content that will not be tolerated also includes: Personal information – yours or someone else’s, spam – the same content posted over and over either on the same article or across different articles, all external URLS linking to other content including URLs and content that may be unsafe or contain material that such as viruses, files, programmes and code designed to corrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment connected to www.jbphotography.uk or advertising/sponsorship/external URLs for any commercial purpose, all comments with images, petitions or solicitations for donations for campaigns, content that may prejudice both pending and on-going court proceedings, content that breaks the law or condones, encourages or provides instructions for illegal or otherwise harmful activities, copyright infringements or content that infringes other intellectual property rights, the publishing of “spoilers” that includes plot developments that have not been transmitted on UK television (whether Freeview, YouTube, cable, satellite or on online services) unless it’s on a designated “spoilers” article.
In some cases, we may have to remove an entire segment of content, including messages that do not breach our terms, if it is part of a topic or conversation that was in breach of our guidelines or no longer make sense without a deleted comment. For example, if we remove a racist comment, the responses will no longer be relevant and will be removed.
Banning users
JB Photography reserves the right to permanently ban any account at our own sole discretion.
Users who are persistent in posting untolerated content within their comments, according to our judgement, may have their accounts banned. This means that a user will find they are unable to comment on JB Photography on any article across the website.
Moderators may be forced to ban users as a result of posting content in breach of these Community Guidelines on the website – even if posted once, or continuously attempting to re-post comments that have been previously moderated and deleted
These rules are there to protect other users of this site and improve the community that we are so proud of. By virtue of this, we ask that you post responsibly without violating the above terms.
You can help us maintain a positive and constructive conversation by flagging comments as set out below (see How to report a comment) that you believe to be in violation or are offensive. These will be added to our moderation queue to review along with other comments picked by our system for potentially flouting our Community Guidelines.

JB Photography is invested in creating a valuable forum and a place for individuals to read and share their opinions. Below we have set out some suggestions as to how to write an effective comment that won’t be moderated:
– Stay on the main topic of discussion
– Avoid Caps Lock – it can look like you are shouting and sometimes have a negative impact on the way your comment is perceived
– Be open-minded about other people’s opinions and views – although you don’t have to agree with everyone, insulting or mocking their opinion is not acceptable
– Engage with other users appropriately – be respectful and polite to other users on the site
– Use the Like and Dislike features – this is a good way of communicating you agree or disagree without being argumentative
– Ask thoughtful questions
– Double check your message before you post it – you will be allowed to edit it for a short amount of time
In following these tips along with adhering to all of the Community Guidelines, it is very unlikely your comment will be moderated. If you see a comment that you think is a violation of the Community Guidelines, here are the steps to take in order to report it – email
