Media and partnerships

A transparent route for rights-holders, tourism bodies and commercial partners

This page explains what the independent Casebook can offer, what it will never imply, and what must be agreed before material or commercial links are published.

Reviewed guide · Sources & corrections

Production and rights

Official imagery is used only with explicit permission covering the page, credit, placement, duration and permitted commercial context.

Cambridge tourism

Practical visitor information remains useful without payment and links back to current official sources.

Affiliate partners

Commercial links are labelled at the point of use and never determine evidence, location facts or editorial conclusions.

Partnership evidence pack

  • Independent and unofficial status displayed throughout.

Before any agreement

  • Name the organisation and authorised contact.
  • Record permitted assets, uses, credits and expiry.
  • Separate editorial access from paid placement.
  • Document tracking, data roles and visitor consent.
  • Publish the relationship in language readers understand.

A precise first request to the rights-holder

The first request is limited to three to five precisely identified assets. It is auditable, revocable and does not seek unrestricted archive access.

Requested assetIntended placementLicence boundary
One Series 1 key imageHomepage and Series 1 indexWeb display only
One Series 2 key imageSeries 2 trackerWeb display only

The request should ask the licensor to specify territory, term, permitted crops, mandatory credits, takedown contact, social-preview use and whether commercial or affiliate pages are excluded.

Portrait request addendum

Five Series 2 recurring performers

The initial portrait request should name Ben Ashenden, Rumi Sutton, Mark Bonnar, Sian Clifford and Michael Wildman, and ask whether the same approved credit, crop, term and territory can apply to each profile. Until then, the directory remains intentionally text-first.

Enquiry routing

Press access is not an image licence

ITV's public contact guidance separates programme-information enquiries, archive material and picture publicity. The Casebook should begin by asking the relevant rights-holder to route a licensing enquiry; receiving a file or press link would not itself grant reuse.

Approval before publication

The licensor sees the proposed use first

Before an official image goes live, the Casebook will offer the licensor its page placement, caption, crop, display size and credit wording for approval. Any changes outside the agreed use will require a fresh check.
