In plain language

You can share images of public events (e.g., sports matches, festivals, markets) without a permit, provided the camera only captures the event area itself and does not show any of the surrounding landscape or areas outside the event.

Requirement as structured

Images of public events are exempt from the dissemination permit requirement, provided the material only shows the actual event area and nothing outside of it.

Original regulatory text
