Authorization for use of Image, Voice, and/or Likeness

Overview

I hereby irrevocably consent and authorize the California State University, the Trustees of the California State University, the University, and the officers, employees, representatives, volunteers and agents of each of them (hereinafter “CSU”), the absolute right and permission to use my likeness in photographs, videos, audio recordings, drawings, renderings, voices, audio clips, images, accompanying written descriptions or other digital media (collectively, the “Images”), and any reproduction of them in any form, in any media whatsoever. I understand that the Images may be used for any lawful purpose, including in University- sponsored websites, print ads, direct-mail pieces, publications, promotions, broadcasts, posters, banners and theater slides, as well as for non-University uses. I also understand that all Images will become the property of CSU and will not be returned. I waive any right to inspect or approve the finished images or any printed or electronic matter that may be used with them, or to be compensated for them.

I hereby also hold harmless, release and forever discharge CSU, from any and all claims, demands and liability arising out of or in connection with the use of the Images, including any and all claims for invasion of privacy, right of publicity, misappropriation or misuse of image, and/or defamation.

I understand that CSU will endeavor to use the Images in accordance with standards of good judgment and that CSU cannot warrant or guarantee that any further dissemination of the Images be subject to CSU supervision or control. Accordingly, I release CSU from any and all liability related to the dissemination, reproduction, distribution, and/or display of the Images in print or any and all other media, and any such alteration, distortion or illusionary effect of the Images, whether intentional or otherwise, in connection with said use.

This agreement is being made and entered into under the laws of the State of California and shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of said state. This agreement embodies the entire agreement of the parties. No modification of this agreement shall be of any effect unless it is made in writing and signed by all of the parties to the agreement.
