Social Media Release Form

A Social Media Release Form is a document used to grant another person the authority to use video recordings, voice recordings, or photos of an individual on social media. Generally, the form can be used with individuals of all ages, although children under the age of 18 will need their legal guardian to sign the form for them.

Alternate Name:

• Social Media Waiver.

Most Social Media Releases will declare or provide options on how the images or recordings will be utilized. Additionally, the form will often specify if the release is provided for a particular event or social media campaign (therefore being for one-time use only) or if it can be used indefinitely. If no duration period is specified, the form is considered to be in force for the lifetime of the releasor.

Your Media Release Form should include the following information:

1. The printed name of the releasor and the individual receiving rights of the listed media.
2. The addresses, emails, and phone numbers of both parties.
3. An age acknowledgment and the consent of the legal guardian (if the releasor is a minor).
4. The duration of the release.
