UGC Agreement

Thank you for considering our request to use your post as part of our project, which is called “QuartierMoment.”

We at thyssenkrupp AG, in the following also “thyssenkrupp,” “we,” or “us,” appreciate when you use our beautiful headquarters to spruce up your Instagram feed. Based on your creative poses and pictures, we created our project called “Quartiermoment,” where we want to hand over the big stage. 

Therefore, we may ask if you permit us to use your images (User-generated content) on our Instagram channel. If we decide to use your images with your permission, we will include your username in the post's text. This way, you will reap the benefits of our wider audience, and we will benefit from utilizing your images. We will use the requested images only on our Instagram channel.

Before using your images on our Instagram channel, we will always ask you for permission. By replying to our message with #QuartierMoment, you agree to the following grant of rights to use. If you are under 18, please let us know. Unfortunately, we will have to refrain from using your pictures.

If you later wish to have your UGC removed from our Instagram channel, contact us via email at socialmedia@thyssenkrupp.com. We will do our best to fulfill your request as soon as possible.
