Image refers to both photos and illustrations.
Images throughout the site are accompanied with a credit to their copyright owner. Simply click on any photo or illustration on the site that you wish to know more about and you will be taken to the image in our media gallery. The media gallery will provide information about the copyright holder and their contact details (if available) as well as more information about the image.
You should always contact the copyright holder directly if you wish to use an image. If you would like to use AVERT’s images or need any further help surrounding the copyright of images on the site then please contact Emma at info@avert.org.
Please let us know exactly which image you would like to use by giving us the image reference number (eg ‘image_284') that appears with the image in the media gallery. The screenshot indicates where to look for this information.
If you would like to use an image belonging to AVERT please email the image number with details about where you would like to use the image and whether or not you would like to use it for an educational/ non-profit purpose.
back to top Graphics
Graphics refers to everything on the site that is not an image. For example, any design elements such as page headings, maps, graphs, logos, etc. (most of the time a graphic has been created using a computer).
Every graphic on the site belongs to AVERT and may not be used without permission. Please email Emma at info@avert.org if you would like to use any of AVERT’s graphics, including information on which graphic you would like to use and for what purpose (e.g non-profit/small-scale educational use).

The videos featured on the AVERT.org website are credited to the appropriate copyright holder in the information accompanying the video.
Most of the videos on our website are hosted by YouTube, Inc. and streamed from YouTube.com servers using the YouTube embedded player. AVERT does not claim any copyright ownership over videos not created by ourselves, nor do we give permission for their use outside the terms of use on YouTube.com.
You may link to or embed the AVERT copyrighted videos on other websites using the YouTube player to stream directly from the YouTube servers, but may not create copies of the videos to use in other formats. Still images may not be taken from any of our videos under any circumstances.
If you wish to use any videos that are not streamed from YouTube.com, please contact Gemma at info@avert.org.
