3. Manufacturer, Supplier and Partner Images

Our website may feature product photographs, brand logos, technical illustrations, diagrams, catalogue images and promotional materials supplied or authorised by third-party manufacturers, distributors, importers and business partners.

These materials remain the intellectual property of their respective copyright or trademark owners unless otherwise agreed.

Anyone wishing to reuse third-party content must obtain appropriate permission from the relevant rights holder unless their use is otherwise permitted by law.

RHS Boating & Marine may use artificial intelligence, digital editing, photographic enhancement and other creative technologies to develop or improve website imagery.

These materials may include digitally enhanced product photographs, new product presentations, background artwork, category graphics and marketing images.

Any copyright ownership or protection associated with such materials depends on applicable law, human authorship, underlying source material and relevant contractual rights.

AI-assisted modification, restoration, enhancement or recreation of an existing image does not necessarily remove or replace copyright belonging to the original rights holder.

We reserve all intellectual property rights that P & D Imports Pty Ltd lawfully holds in such materials.

No permission is granted to third parties to reuse RHS-owned protected material for commercial purposes without authorisation.
