UEFA is the exclusive, absolute legal and beneficial owner of the commercial rights.
Member associations and their affiliated organisations and/or clubs are authorised to exploit the commercial rights relating to all matches they host in the qualifying phase, round of 16 and quarter-finals. In exploiting the media rights, they must observe any instructions or guidelines issued by UEFA from time to time.
All agreements and arrangements in relation to the competition and/or for the exploitation of commercial rights regarding the competition must be presented to the UEFA administration upon request.
For all such matches, member associations and/or their affiliated organisations or clubs hosting a match undertake to provide UEFA, free of charge and at least 24 hours before kick-off, with access to television frequency information for receiving the broadcast signal at a location of UEFA’s choice. These broadcasts can be recorded by UEFA, in particular for the purposes envisaged in this paragraph, and a copy of such recordings will be made available to the host club upon request. If the signal is unavailable for whatever reason, the host club undertakes to provide UEFA with a recording of the entire match, free of charge, in HDCam format (or such other format as may be requested by UEFA), to be sent to a destination determined by UEFA within seven days of the relevant match. The club shall ensure that the person owning rights to the above materials grants UEFA the right to use and exploit and authorise others to use and exploit any and all media rights in respect of up to 15 minutes (the exact amount to be determined at UEFA’s discretion) of audio and/or visual material from each match, free of charge and without payment of any associated clearance costs. The club acknowledges that such use may be aimed in particular at directly or indirectly promoting the competition within programming produced by or on behalf of UEFA.
The commercial rights must be exploited in compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
