Version 1.0 — effective from: 10 November 2026
Thank you for sharing photos of your interiors with us! We are delighted when our furniture becomes part of your home, and we are happy to show your arrangements to others — in the Inspirations Gallery on our websites and in our marketing communications. These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") set out the rules under which you provide us with your photos and the consents you grant us. We have written them to be fair to both sides: you do not transfer ownership of your photos to us, the licence is non-exclusive, and you can withdraw any consent in the future.
§ 1. General Provisions
- These Terms set out the rules for submitting materials (photos and videos) to the Inspirations Gallery and the rules for their publication and use by the Organiser.
- The organiser of the Inspirations Gallery and the controller of personal data is GAPI Spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością with its registered office in Warsaw (00‑682), ul. Hoża 86/410, entered in the register of entrepreneurs of the National Court Register (KRS) under number KRS 0000945496, NIP (tax ID) 7011068399, REGON 520952732, share capital PLN 5,000 — the operator of the online stores table4u.pl and table4u.cz (hereinafter: "Table4U", "we", "us").
- You can contact Table4U in all matters relating to the Gallery at: [email protected] or by post to the registered office address.
- Definitions: - Gallery — the "Inspirations" section available on table4u.pl and table4u.cz, including the gallery modules embedded on the home page, on product pages and on the stores' subpages; - Material — a photo or video showing an arrangement featuring Table4U products, together with an optional description; - User — a person who submits a Material in one of the ways described in § 2 ("you").
- Only adults with full legal capacity may be Users.
- Participation in the Gallery is voluntary and free of charge. The Terms are made available free of charge on the store websites in a manner that allows them to be downloaded, saved and printed.
- To use the Gallery and the submission form, all you need is a device with internet access and an up-to-date web browser; the form accepts JPG/PNG/WEBP/MP4 files, up to 3 files of 20 MB each. Users must not submit any unlawful content. Complaints about the operation of the Gallery or the form may be sent to [email protected]; we will consider them within 14 days of receipt and reply to the address from which the complaint was sent.
- The Gallery is in no way sponsored, endorsed, administered by or associated with Instagram or Facebook (Meta Platforms) or any other social media platform; those platforms bear no liability towards Users in connection with the Gallery.
§ 2. How to Submit Materials and Grant Consent
- You can submit a Material to us in two ways:
a) Social media (Instagram / Facebook). If you tag our profile (e.g. @table4u) or use our hashtag (e.g. #table4u) on your photo, we may reply under your post with a comment asking for your consent to use the photo. Our request always includes a link to these Terms and states the consent hashtag (currently: #yesTable4U). Our request also briefly indicates the scope of the consent: publication of the Material (including any likeness captured in it) in the Gallery on table4u.pl and table4u.cz, on our social media profiles and in our online advertising. You grant consent by replying to our request in the same thread with the consent hashtag — your reply should be unconditional (without additions changing the scope of the consent). If your reply contains reservations or conditions changing the scope of the consent, the consent is deemed not to have been granted until its scope has been clarified with you. By replying with the consent hashtag, you accept these Terms and grant the consents described in them with respect to the photo(s) covered by our request. Once consent has been obtained, we save a copy of the Material from your public profile for the purpose of publishing it in the Gallery.
b) Website form. You can submit a Material via the form available in the Gallery on table4u.pl / table4u.cz. In the form you provide: the file(s), your e-mail address (required — used, among other things, for contact and for handling any withdrawal of consent), optionally your nickname or Instagram profile address (for author attribution), and an optional description. You grant consent by ticking a checkbox confirming that you have read and accept the Terms; you give your consent to the publication of the Material and of your likeness via a separate checkbox, unticked by default and independent of the Terms acceptance checkbox.
- Merely tagging our brand or using the #table4u hashtag does not by itself constitute consent to publication in the Gallery or in our materials. We publish only Materials for which we have obtained consent in the manner described in paragraph 1.
- The consent covers the specific Material (or Materials) to which our request related or which was submitted via the form.
- For evidentiary purposes, we archive confirmation that consent was granted: the identifier/URL of the post and the reply (or the content of the form submission), the content and date of the consent, and the version of the Terms in force at the time it was granted (details in § 7).
- The licence agreement referred to in § 3 is concluded at the moment the reply containing the consent hashtag is posted (path a) or at the moment the form is sent with the consent checkbox ticked (path b).
§ 3. Licence
- Upon granting consent (§ 2(5)), you grant Table4U a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence, unlimited in territory and granted for an indefinite period, to use the Material in the following fields of use: a) making the Material publicly available in the Inspirations Gallery on table4u.pl and table4u.cz — including on the home page, on product pages and in views combining the Material with tags of products from our range and their prices ("shop the look"); b) making the Material publicly available on Table4U's social media profiles (including Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, YouTube); c) using the Material in online advertising of the Table4U brand (including search-engine and social media advertising) and in our newsletter and marketing correspondence; d) recording and reproducing the Material by digital means to the extent necessary for the uses described in points a–c (hosting, backups, thumbnails, versions in different resolutions).
- You consent to us making the necessary adaptations of the Material: cropping, scaling, compression, colour correction and combining the Material with text, graphics, product tags or other photos — with respect for the integrity of the Material; we will not make changes that distort its message in a way that damages your good name.
- No remuneration. The licence is granted free of charge — no remuneration or other consideration is due for submitting the Material or for its use to the extent described in the Terms. This provision does not mean that you waive any rights you have under the law.
- Author attribution. We make every effort to credit the author when publishing a Material (e.g. by nickname or a link to their Instagram profile); however, due to the technical constraints of different channels, you also permit us to publish the Material without author attribution and undertake, to that extent, not to exercise your right to have the work attributed to you by name or pseudonym. Your moral rights remain with you and cannot be waived or transferred. You separately permit us to use your nickname / profile name in connection with the publication of the Material (author attribution, photo caption).
- We may grant sublicences: (a) to entities providing us with technical or marketing support (e.g. our hosting provider or the agency running our campaigns) — within the scope and for the purposes described in paragraph 1, and (b) to the operators of the platforms on which we publish the Material in accordance with paragraph 1(b)–(c) (e.g. Meta Platforms, Pinterest, Google/YouTube) — to the extent that the terms of service of those platforms require a licence to be granted to them for published content. We do not sell Materials and do not make them available to third parties for their own purposes unrelated to Table4U.
- Materials will not be used to train artificial intelligence models without your separate, express consent.
- The licence is granted for an indefinite period — you may terminate it at any time with effect for the future, as described in § 8.
§ 4. Likeness (Image Rights)
- If your likeness is captured in a Material, then by granting consent in accordance with § 2 you also grant express permission for the dissemination of your likeness (Article 81(1) of the Polish Copyright and Related Rights Act (ustawa o prawie autorskim i prawach pokrewnych)) in the channels and for the purposes described in § 3(1). The permission is granted free of charge.
- If other recognisable persons are visible in the Material, publication is conditional on those persons granting consent to the dissemination of their likeness by Table4U in the channels and for the purposes described in § 3(1). Before publication, we may ask you to confirm or produce such consent, and we may withhold publication until we receive it.
- Minors. We do not publish Materials showing the recognisable likeness of a minor without the express consent of their legal representative (parent or legal guardian). We publish a Material showing the recognisable likeness of a minor only after receiving your express confirmation that their legal representative has consented to the dissemination of the likeness to the extent described in the Terms; until we receive such confirmation, we withhold publication, and we may remove a Material that has already been published.
- You may revoke the permission for the dissemination of your likeness at any time with effect for the future, as described in § 8.
§ 5. User Representations
By submitting a Material, you represent that: 1. you are the author of the Material or hold rights or authorisations sufficient to grant the licence and consents described in the Terms; 2. the Material does not infringe the law or the rights of third parties — in particular copyright, image rights, personality rights or trademark rights; 3. you have obtained the consent of all recognisable persons visible in the Material to the dissemination of their likeness to the extent described in the Terms and, in the case of minors, the consent of their legal representatives; 4. if elements originating from third parties are visible in the Material (e.g. furniture or decorations of other brands, posters, paintings, other works), their presence is that of background or part of the arrangement, and publication of the Material does not infringe any rights to those elements; 5. you are an adult; 6. the details provided in the form are true and relate to you.
If a third party raises claims against Table4U in connection with a Material, you undertake to cooperate with us in clarifying the matter. You are liable for the untruthfulness of the above representations under the general rules provided by law.
§ 6. Moderation and Publication
- All Materials are moderated before publication. Obtaining consent does not create any obligation on our part to publish the Material — the decision on publication and on its place, time and form rests with Table4U; there is no entitlement to publication.
- We may refuse to publish a Material or remove it from the Gallery, in particular where: (a) the Material or the way it was submitted does not comply with the Terms or the law; (b) we have reasonable doubts about the rights to the Material or the consents of the persons visible in it (including the consent of a minor's guardian); (c) the Material is of low technical quality or does not match the character of the Gallery; (d) the Material contains third-party advertising or offensive or inappropriate content; (e) we have received a notice of infringement (§ 9) or a removal request (§ 8).
- If we remove a published Material from the Gallery, we will inform you of the removal and its reason — at the e-mail address provided in the form or in the thread in which consent was granted — unless the removal takes place at your request or we have no channel of contact with you.
- "Shop the look". Materials in the Gallery may be displayed together with tags of products from our range, including their prices and links to the product pages. The prices displayed next to a Material are the prices current at the time the page is displayed. The Gallery contains content provided by customers, supplemented by Table4U with commercial links — it is therefore commercial in nature, which we hereby clearly disclose.
§ 7. Personal Data (GDPR)
- Controller. The controller of your personal data is GAPI Sp. z o.o., ul. Hoża 86/410, 00‑682 Warszawa (registration details — § 1(2)). Contact for personal data matters: [email protected] or by post to the registered office address.
- Scope of data. We process: the Material (including any likeness captured in it), your nickname / social media profile name, the content of the post or description, your e-mail address (for form submissions), the date and proof of consent (identifier/URL of the post and reply, content of the consent, version of the Terms) and the content of our correspondence with you. In the case of the social media path, we obtain the data from your public Instagram or Facebook profile (information pursuant to Article 14 GDPR — the source of the data is your public profile, covering: nickname, content and date of the post, and the Material).
- Purposes and legal bases of processing: a) receiving the Material, moderation, contact and handling submissions — Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (a contract to which you are a party); b) publication of the Material in the Gallery, on our social media profiles and in our advertising — including dissemination of the likeness captured in the Material and use of your nickname — Article 6(1)(a) GDPR (your consent); c) documenting the consents granted and establishing, pursuing or defending legal claims — Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (our legitimate interest in being able to demonstrate the basis for publication and to defend against claims); d) handling notices, removal requests and day-to-day contact — Article 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR.
- Recipients of data. We may entrust or disclose data to: hosting and IT service providers supporting our stores, entities supporting our marketing on our behalf, social media platforms (where the Material is published on our profiles) and authorities entitled to receive it under the law. Please remember that publication of the Material in the Gallery and on social media means that it becomes available to an unlimited audience.
- Transfers outside the EEA. As a rule, we do not transfer data outside the European Economic Area. When publishing on Meta services (Instagram, Facebook), data may be transferred to the USA — on the basis of the European Commission's adequacy decision under the EU‑US Data Privacy Framework (Meta Platforms, Inc. is certified), and otherwise on the basis of standard contractual clauses. You can obtain a copy of the information about the safeguards applied by writing to [email protected].
- Retention period. The Material, likeness and nickname — until consent is withdrawn, the licence is terminated or the Material is removed from the Gallery; proof of consent and correspondence — for the limitation period of any claims (as a rule, 6 years); the e-mail address — for the period during which the Material is published in the Gallery, and after its removal or the withdrawal of consent — together with the proof of consent, for the limitation period of any claims (as a rule, 6 years), solely for evidentiary purposes.
- Your rights. You have the right to: access your data, rectify it, erase it, restrict its processing, data portability, object (to processing based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) and withdraw consent at any time — with effect for the future, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before its withdrawal (Article 7(3) GDPR). How to withdraw consent is described in § 8. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority — the President of the Polish Personal Data Protection Office (Prezes Urzędu Ochrony Danych Osobowych, ul. Stawki 2, 00‑193 Warszawa) or the supervisory authority of the country of your habitual residence (for the Czech Republic: Úřad pro ochranu osobních údajů).
- Providing data is voluntary but necessary for the publication of the Material; the e-mail address in the form is needed, among other things, so that we can handle any future request from you to remove the Material or withdraw consent.
- We do not make decisions concerning you that are based solely on automated processing, including profiling, and that produce legal effects.
- The Gallery is intended for adults only; we do not knowingly collect the data of minors as Users.
§ 8. Withdrawal of Consent and Removal of Material
- At any time you may: (a) request removal of the Material from the Gallery and from our future publications, (b) terminate the licence (§ 3), (c) revoke the permission for the dissemination of your likeness (§ 4), (d) withdraw your consent to the processing of personal data (§ 7). A single message is enough — we will treat it as covering all of the above unless you expressly indicate a narrower scope.
- How to do it: send a message to [email protected], identifying the Material (e.g. a link to the photo in the Gallery or to the post), or — if the feature is available — use the "report photo" option next to the Material in the Gallery. Withdrawing consent does not require giving a reason and is free of charge.
- Implementation: we will remove the Material from the Gallery and cease any new uses of it without undue delay, and no later than within 14 days of receiving your message. Within the same period, to the extent technically possible, we will remove the Material from the social media profiles we administer.
- Effect for the future. Withdrawal of consent and termination of the licence operate for the future: uses of the Material made lawfully before the withdrawal remain lawful. Materials already disseminated over which we have no control (e.g. publications shared onward by third parties) may remain in circulation — however, we will make every effort to cease any further active use of them on our part.
- Deleting your original post, tag or hashtag on social media does not automatically withdraw your consent — if you want us to stop using the Material, please notify us as described in paragraph 2.
- Withdrawing consent has no negative consequences for you.
- If the agreement concluded with us is subject to the rules on distance contracts, you may withdraw from it without giving a reason within 14 days of its conclusion — a message to [email protected] is sufficient (you may, but do not have to, use the model form set out in Annex 2 to the Polish Consumer Rights Act (ustawa o prawach konsumenta)). We treat a statement of withdrawal from the agreement in the same way as the notification referred to in paragraph 1 (full withdrawal of consents and removal of the Material).
§ 9. Reporting Infringements
- If you believe that a Material published in the Gallery infringes your rights (including copyright, image rights, personality rights or personal data protection) or the law, report it to [email protected], providing: identification of the Material (a link), a description of the infringement and your contact details.
- We will consider the report without undue delay, and no later than within 14 days. While the report is being verified, we may temporarily hide the Material in the Gallery.
- If the report is justified, the Material will be removed or permanently blocked; we will inform the reporting person of the outcome and, where possible, also the User who submitted the Material.
- Using the above procedure does not limit the right to pursue claims in court or the rights arising from personal data protection law.
§ 10. Final Provisions
- Matters not regulated in the Terms are governed by Polish law, provided that this choice of law does not deprive a consumer of the protection afforded to them by provisions that cannot be derogated from by agreement under the law of the country of their habitual residence (Article 6 of the Rome I Regulation) — in particular, consumers from the Czech Republic using table4u.cz.
- Disputes are resolved by the court having jurisdiction under the generally applicable rules. Consumers may also use out-of-court dispute resolution methods, including the assistance of a municipal (district) consumer ombudsman or a Provincial Inspectorate of the Trade Inspection in Poland, and, in the Czech Republic, the assistance of the Czech Trade Inspection Authority (Česká obchodní inspekce).
- We may amend the Terms for important legal, technical or organisational reasons. Amendments do not have retroactive effect: Materials submitted before an amendment are governed by the version of the Terms in force at the time consent was granted, unless the new version is more favourable to the User.
- If any provision of the Terms proves invalid or ineffective, the remaining provisions remain in force, and the invalid provision is replaced by the applicable provisions of law.
- For the table4u.cz store, the Terms are also available in a Czech language version; for consumers from the Czech Republic, the Czech version prevails in the event of any discrepancy.
