Terms of Use

INTENT

NowAnThen is an online photography platform that allows users to upload their photographs (“Images” or “Submissions”) and caption information, organize them into timelines (“Timelines”) and share them with friends, family, and the world. It will gradually become a searchable archive of photos – allowing viewers to visit any time or place in our shared photographic history.

PERMISSIONS

Users of NowAnThen who upload Images to the website must be the copyright owner of the Image or have permission from the owner to post the Image. NowAnThen understands that the copyright ownership of family snapshots or similar photos may not be clear. Users must use their good judgment in posting such images and remove them upon request of NowAnThen or third-parties. Upon request by the owner, users shall remove any uploaded images that do not belong to them.
