This authorization and consent grants Ashoka, a non-profit organization based in Arlington, Virginia, (“Ashoka”, see full address below) permission to create photos, videos, and audio recordings during the event you are registering for hosted by Ashoka (the “Event”) featuring you (referred to as “Media and Recordings”) and share these Media and Recordings publicly, including to journalists, via social media, on Ashoka’s website, and/or in Ashoka publications. Ashoka’s rights under this consent extend to Ashoka’s parents, branches, subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, representatives, independent contractors, and other related parties.

You authorize Ashoka to make, modify, copy, archive, and otherwise use the Media and Recordings, free of charge, for Ashoka’s informative, promotional, and institutional purposes with or without stating your name. Your authorization allows Ashoka to use the Media and Recordings without time or location limits nor any expectation of compensation. Ashoka may publish, reproduce, modify, adapt, or share the Media and Recordings in any way, including by press, television, event websites, and websites or social profiles used for the Events. Your authorization expressly releases Ashoka from any liability for the use of your image, name, and voice, in compliance with your authorization and consent.
