Its not really a rights grab, they are covering their backs so that they can promote the competition as far as I can see.

T&C 3 seems pretty emphatic to me:

"3.By entering the competition, the participants grants to CEWE COLOR and related CEWE COLOR businesses on a non-exclusive basis all present and future rights, including, without limitation, all copyrights and related proprietary rights. In particular, CEWE COLOR shall have the right to publish, duplicate, distribute, or otherwise exploit the images in perpetuity throughout the world in any all media by any and all means, methods, processes or devices now known or hereafter invented."

That's not strictly speaking a rights grab, which refers to another situation altogether.

However it does appear to be a way of obtaining free photographs for all uses forever....so avoid!

A rights grab is where an organisation or publisher will not commission you unless you agree to hand over copyright.
 
Have i told you how bad the service is yet :naughty:

WELL ITS TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE :thumbsdown:

Dave :D:thumbs:
 
they are allowed to stipulate the terms and conditions and its up to you wither you enter or not. I don't see anything wrong with it.

I was just considering entering the "CEWE" photography competition but after reading the T&Cs I'm definitely giving it a miss. You're basically giving away all ownership of your photographs :shrug::bonk:


T&Cs are here... http://contest.cewe-photobook.co.uk/en/photos/add
