Terms and Conditions for Outside In and online gallery

Outside In supports artists who feel that they face barriers to the art world. This could be because they have a health problem or a disability, are socially isolated or otherwise unable to take part in the art world.

This form contains the terms for joining Outside In and creating an online gallery on the Outside In website.

Outside In will not give your details to anyone else without us contacting you first, unless it is necessary, and we will keep your details confidential in line with our Confidentiality, Safeguarding and Data Protection Policies*.

Outside In will not disclose why you wish to join the charity.

Outside In may use images of your artwork, with your name, (at no fee) for its social media platforms: Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

Outside In cannot stop people re-using your images for their own use, however your images are protected under Copyright Law. Your images can be seen by anyone who looks at the Outside In website.

Your online gallery has a comments section. This is where people can write what they think about your artwork. Outside In staff check the comments weekly, and they are sent to you by post or email. Outside In will remove any negative comments. If you do not want a comments section, contact Outside In and we will remove your comments section completely.

If you want to delete your online gallery, contact Outside In by email at info@outsidein.org.uk or by phone on 01273 281 311

If Outside In chooses your artwork to be in an exhibition you need to make sure that the art work is available for the whole time that the exhibition is on. Outside In will help with the framing and transporting of your work if needed.

Your artwork can be available for sale on the Outside In website, at its exhibitions and at art fairs. We can provide you with advice on setting the price for your work. You do not have to sell your work.

If you sell your work through Outside In, we will take a 40% commission on top of the price you set for your work.

What is commission?Commission is a percentage of the price you set for your work. Outside In’s commission goes to support its work with excluded artists.

If you sell your work, Outside In will organise collecting the payment and delivering the work. Any transport costs will be paid by the buyer. We aim to get your money to you (or to someone else, if you do not have a bank account) within four weeks of Outside In receiving payment.

If you choose to sell your work, Outside In has no responsibility for the impact any payment of sales could have on your benefits or personal tax liabilities.

What are benefits?Benefits and tax credits are payments from the government to certain people on low incomes, or to meet specific needs. You may need to tell the benefit agency if you sell any work.

What is tax?Tax is an amount of money taken away from the money you earn or make. This money goes to the government to help run the country and provide services. If you sell a piece of work, it may have an impact on the money you pay as tax.
