RupertG Interactive · Guest Appearance and Media Release Agreement

This Agreement is entered into as of the date signed below (the "Effective Date"), between RupertG Interactive, trading as Dylan Shoobridge and RupertG Brands (collectively, "the Producer"), and the individual named and signing below ("the Guest").

1. Consent to Appear and Be Recorded
The Guest voluntarily agrees to appear on and participate in a recorded episode or session of The Dylan Show, and understands the recording will capture their voice, image, likeness, name, biographical information, statements, opinions, and performance throughout. The Guest confirms they have not been induced by any promise not contained in this Agreement, and enter into it freely.

2. Grant of Rights and Licence
The Guest grants the Producer an irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide, transferable, and sublicensable licence to use, reproduce, edit, adapt, publish, broadcast, distribute, and otherwise exploit the recorded content in any format or medium, including publishing on podcast and streaming platforms, creating clips and short-form content for social media, promoting the show and its partners, internal promotional use, and future archiving or repurposing. This licence does not expire when the Agreement's term ends and remains in force in perpetuity.

3. Term and 150-Day Coverage Window
This Agreement is valid for 150 calendar days from the Effective Date, during which the Guest may appear one or more times without signing a new agreement. After that Term expires, a new agreement is needed for further appearances, but rights already granted over content recorded during the Term remain in force in perpetuity.

4. Right to Edit and Editorial Control
The Producer may edit, cut, splice, dub, subtitle, re-sequence, or otherwise modify the recording as it sees fit, and the final version may differ from the raw recording. The Guest has no right of approval over the edit, provided the Producer does not deliberately misrepresent the Guest's words in a defamatory manner.

5. Commercial Use and Sponsorship
The Guest's appearance may be used in content that includes sponsorships, paid advertising, or brand integrations, with no additional fee owed to the Guest for such use, including promotion of current or future partners of the Producer.

6. Non-Disparagement and Non-Competition
The Guest agrees not to make disparaging or defamatory statements about the Producer, the show, or its partners, and not to start or materially assist a directly competing show or brand without written consent. This does not restrict genuine debate or constructive commentary on topics the show covers, and these obligations continue indefinitely.

7. Release of Liability and Waiver of Claims
The Guest releases the Producer and its people from claims arising from the recording, editing, publication, or use of their appearance as authorised here, except where content is deliberately and maliciously manipulated to falsely attribute statements the Guest never made.

8. No Obligation to Publish
The Producer is not obliged to record, broadcast, publish, or distribute any content featuring the Guest, and all publishing decisions rest solely with the Producer.

9. Pre-Publication Confidentiality (NDA)
From the date of recording until the episode is publicly published, the Guest keeps the existence, content, and nature of their appearance confidential, including not posting or hinting at it on social media or elsewhere. These obligations lift once the Producer confirms the episode has been published.

10. Intellectual Property
All content produced for The Dylan Show, including recordings the Guest appears in, is owned exclusively by RupertG Interactive. Any rights that vest in the Guest by law are assigned to the Producer with full title guarantee.

11. Data Protection
RupertG Interactive processes the Guest's personal data under UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, solely to produce, distribute, and promote the show, storing it securely and not selling or transferring it to unaffiliated third parties without consent, except where required by law.

12. Representations and Warranties
Both parties confirm they have the authority to enter this Agreement, that doing so does not breach any other obligation they hold, and the Guest is not knowingly bringing any conflicting third-party IP rights into their appearance.

13. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
This Agreement is governed by the laws of England and Wales, with any disputes subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

14. Entire Agreement and Amendments
This Agreement is the entire understanding between the parties on this subject and can only be changed by a written instrument signed by both sides.

15. Severability
If any part of this Agreement is found invalid or unenforceable, that part is removed and the rest continues in full effect.
