Yes
Taken from UEFA's official Champions League Regulations manual for this seasons competition;

Photographs taken by officially accredited photographers may be published online (including internet and mobile) for editorial purposes only, subject to the following conditions:
a) they must appear as stills and not as moving pictures or quasi-video; b) there must be an interval of at least 20 seconds between postings of
photographs.

Now i would read that as i will not be able to publish images on my website or Flickr, what do you think as i have seen other images from champions league games on sites such as Flickr?

i read it as

a) they need to find a space bar......

I also read it as you can send to a website such as daily fail. co. uk but not for own personal use..........

does it mean that photo 1, taken at 0.00.00 and photo 2 taken at 0.00.20 or yuo can take 2 photos 1 second apart but must wait 20 secs before uploading????????
 
It means you must wait 20 second before uploading another photograph to flickr or whatever. And i'd say that flickr is probably not fine reading that, it seems a newspaper or something :/

That makes no sense :/

Damn my post made little sense... i'll try again.
Basically i don't think you can upload to flickr, but as Lynton said, newspapers should be fine.
And a 20 second interval between each upload (as if they'll know lmao), they gona slap your hand if you upload a photo 19 seconds after the previous one? Lol.

It's to stop people uploading second-by-second stills of the game; that would defeat the purpose of television.

Agreed!

Sorry to be more specific the query is about the uploading to websites

Hmm... It depends if they mean editorial in terms of an editorial publication/website, or editorial as in non-commercial. However if you are using the images to promote your photography services that is non-editorial I would imagine.
 
i think the "for editorial purposes only" bit there is quite succinct and clear...........

i.e. Don't go putting them on your facespace page!!!!
 
if a picture is part of a match report then you can use it.. if its just a picture then you cant... flkr and the like would be a no-no .. a fan site with a match report would be a yes..

reads obvious to me :)
 
How about if you had a website where you wanted to include photographs to illustrate a point?

For example what is good about the said photos. Why the photog used a particular shutter speed ot ISO.

depends on how editorial is defined.. a gallery of pics isnt editorial IMHO but a match report, preview etc is.. an article on goalkeepers featuring pics of goalkeepers is also editorial IMHO

I always find the easiest thing to do is ask.. I recently asked dataco to clear up some points and the FA some other stuff.. all answer and you get it from the horses mouth so to speak..

Thats hardly editorial is it :) thats text accompanying a picture rather than picture accompanying text
 
I was under the impression that the game, despite being UEFA ran was still under the usual DataCo rules? I'm happy to be corrected of course :)
 
Apparently not.

I spoke to the press guy at Spurs, just before their CL qualifier and he stated that CL games are not covered by Dataco rules.

Interesting... might be worth writing a match report for some of my games :) I'll await a definite outcome of this!

There is no issue of me using them on my site, as you may well have noticed with the amount of cricket I put on there :) At the same time, they wouldn't be James pics either.. nor would most sports photographers pics, but all have their own personal portfolio!
