Volunteer Media Release and Consent
Mentor2Youth (collectively “M2Y”) engages with volunteers (“M2Y Volunteer”) to deliver educational programs in-person and online. M2Y Volunteers deliver these programs using content provided by M2Y (“M2Y Materials”), but may also create content for use with these programs (“Volunteer Created Materials”). In presenting the M2Y Materials or the Volunteer Created Materials, the Likeness (defined below) of the M2Y Volunteer may be captured and reproduced. This M2Y Volunteer Media Release and Consent (the “Agreement”) (1) authorizes M2Y to use the Likeness of the M2Y Volunteer,(2) clarifies the ownership of M2Y Materials and Volunteer Created Materials, and (3) grants M2Y a license to use the Volunteer Created Materials as described below. For good and valuable consideration, including the opportunity to serve as an M2Y Volunteer, I agree as follows:
M2Y Materials
I understand that M2Y is the sole and exclusive owner of all rights, titles, and interests in and to all M2Y Materials, any media embodying the M2Y Materials, and any derivatives of the M2Y Materials. If it is ever determined that I own any rights in the M2Y Materials contrary to what I have represented herein, I hereby irrevocably assign, transfer and otherwise convey to M2Y all right, title, and interest in the M2Y Materials.
Volunteer Created Materials
I grant M2Y, a perpetual, non-exclusive, irrevocable, sublicensable, and royalty-free right to copy, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, create derivative works, edit, enhance, publish and use the Volunteer Created Materials in any medium and in any manner throughout the world.
I represent and warrant that all Volunteer Created Materials furnished by me are free of third-party content or materials unless I have expressly written permission from all rights holders, including the right to license such content to M2Y hereunder. I confirm that such Volunteer Created Materials do not infringe upon any copyright, trademark, trade dress, rights of privacy or publicity, patent rights, or third party contract rights and do not contain libelous or scandalous matter.
My Likeness
M2Y may use my name, voice, image, picture, silhouette, and other aspects of my likeness (“Likeness”) in any recording, video, still-image, photograph, or other forms of media without restriction, in connection with its use of M2Y Materials, Volunteer Created Materials, and M2Y programs, or for any purpose related generally to M2Y, including commercially and in connection with the creation and use promotional materials, advertising, and publicity.
I will not sue, dispute, challenge, or institute proceedings against M2Y for using the Volunteer Created Materials or my Likeness and I hereby waive all legal and equitable rights I may have as well as all claims, damages, and expenses arising directly or indirectly from the same. I agree to indemnify, defend and hold M2Y harmless from any and all actions, damages, and liabilities (including attorneys’ fees and costs) that may arise by or in connection with a breach of my representations herein. I am under no obligation to sign this Agreement but so voluntarily understanding that this Agreement is binding on, and shall benefit, M2Y, me, and our respective (as applicable) heirs, devisees, legatees, representatives, guardians, conservators, administrators, successors, assigns, agents, transferees, and estates.
