Dear Friend of Oceanside,
We live in a digital age and these days most peoples first encounter with a church is not in person. Instead, the first impressions of church for unchurched people is through livestream, website, Facebook, and user reviews and photos on Google and social media.
People are less impressed these days with cool graphics and generic or stock photos. They want to see real people doing real things before they come to our church.
For the sake of reaching our community better, would you please provide the following consent to help us improve the way we connect others with our church. Your photos will usually not be identified with your name (and therefore will not be searchable). As a courtesy, we will still try to seek your permission for media that prominently features you.
I (signed below) give Oceanside Community Church (the Church) the right to use my picture, video, audio, or written statement in all forms, including but not limited to my image, visual likeness, edited or altered forms, and composite representations, and in all manners of media, including but not limited to publications, websites, brochures, social media, site photos, videos, promotional material, any other marketing or promotion for the church, and any other lawful purposes (all the preceding collectively referred to as Works.) I acknowledge that livestreamed service content cannot be changed or edited once streamed.
I agree that all the above Works and reproductions or derivatives shall be the exclusive property of the Church, and understand that the Church may keep or use the Works now and in the future for the above purposes and waive any rights to the Works.
I hereby agree to hold harmless and release and forever discharge the Church, its officers, directors, employees, council, and agents from all claims, demands, and causes of action which I, my heirs, representatives, executors, administrators, or any other persons acting on my behalf or on behalf of my estate have or may have by reason of this authorization.
I am over the age of 18 years and have carefully read this release and am fully familiar with its terms, conditions, and contents, and agree to be bound by them
