LEGAL INFORMATION FOR EVENT PRODUCERS

All event producers are required to download, print and display the -FILMING NOTICE- at the entrance of their event location. This -FILMING NOTICE- lets people know that they might be broadcast live on Xumanii.com and prevents any lawsuits against the producer or against Xumanii.

Every person has a right to respect for his private life. (1)
Every person has a right to the respect of his reputation and privacy. No one may invade the privacy of a person without the consent of the person unless authorized by law. (2)
Using his name, image, likeness or voice for a purpose other than the legitimate information of the public is considered as an invasion of the privacy of a person. (3)
The right to the respect for one’s private life is not absolute. It is limited by other fundamental rights such as free speech or the right to inform the public.

Thus, one does not undermine a person’s private life:
• When one receives that person’s consent (implicitly or explicitly)
• When it is in the public’s interest to diffuse information or an event, (such as a public event).
• When the person is not recognizable,
• When a person is filmed secondarily or accidentally (such as a sporting event)

The Quebec courts have such determined what constitutes an implicit consent, a person who accepts being interviewed or photographed without reserve or a person who voluntarily decides to attend a public event knowing there will be a media presence.

A person attending the opening night of an event will be presumed consenting to the capture of their images when:
• A clear filming notice is posted at the entrance of the venue where the event is taking place.

A person attending this event will be aware of a media presence (television, radio, press) and therefore conscious that their right to privacy will be limited.

Therefore, where a filming notice is clearly visible, it is not likely that a person invited to the opening night, later on claims that the live capture of the event infringed upon that person’s right to privacy.
