Club-dedicated programmes only (and no other delayed rights) may be licensed by the clubs to club media partners (but excluding on third-party digital services) and/or exploited via audiovisual fixed-media subject to the following conditions:
-
in relation to any such programme, which is made available as part of a linear delivery/push transmission whereby the viewing time is scheduled and fixed:
-
it can only be exploited from midnight CET one day (i.e. 24 hours) after the last match of the relevant matchweek (e.g. Thursday midnight CET for a Tuesday match played in a matchweek during which matches are played on Tuesday and Wednesday; or Monday midnight CET for a UEFA Women's Champions League final played on a Sunday), but in any case not whilst any UEFA Women’s Champions League matches are being played; and
-
there shall be at least a four-hour gap between the end of the transmission and the start of the linear/push transmission on the same channel of another club-dedicated programme (whether dedicated to the same club or another club);
-
-
in relation to any such programme, which is made available as part of a non-linear delivery/pull transmission whereby the viewing time is determined by the viewer:
-
it can only be exploited from midnight CET three days (i.e. 72 hours) after the last match of the relevant matchweek (e.g. Saturday midnight CET for a Tuesday match played in a matchweek during which matches are played on Tuesday and Wednesday; or Wednesday midnight CET for a UEFA Women's Champions League final played on a Sunday); and
-
clubs may not allow non-linear/pull exploitation of their club-dedicated programme(s) in association with any other club’s club-dedicated programme(s);
-
-
any such programme must be club branded and dedicated (e.g. 1.FFC Frankfurt History) and shall not be branded or promoted in association with UEFA or any UEFA competitions;
-
any such programme may be made available on a free and/or subscription basis (pay and/or pay-per-view);
-
any such programme shall not for the avoidance of doubt take the form of extended highlights programmes and/or delayed match programmes;
-
no such programme shall contain more than 50% of UEFA content comprising UEFA Women’s Champions League content and any other UEFA-related content, including other UEFA competitions unless such programme is dedicated to the final and released by the winning club (which may have 100% final-related content). In case of production of a series of programmes (i.e. several programmes associated by a common theme including name, branding, packaging, distribution and/or promotion) and/or block programming, (i) the series/block programming and (ii) each programme forming part of the series/block programming shall be considered as a programme for the purpose of this Annex G.5.4;
Example:
Within a series of programmes dedicated to the history of Olympique Lyonnais:-
the series of programmes shall contain a maximum of 50% of UEFA content; and
-
each programme shall contain a maximum of 50% of UEFA content, with the exception of one programme featuring a final won by Olympique Lyonnais;
-
-
any such programme may be sponsored by a third party (but not in a way that creates a direct or indirect association with the competition) unless such programme is dedicated to the final and released by the winning club in the manner described in point f) above and in this case it cannot have any sponsorship and/or direct/indirect third-party association;
-
for the avoidance of doubt, Annex G.5.4.1b-g apply to any fixed media exploitation for which purpose the word "programme(s)" can alternatively mean "product(s)". Furthermore, fixed media exploitation is subject to the following additional obligation:
-
the fixed media devices may be employed to reproduce match footage of the UEFA Women’s Champions League matches together with other editorial elements but may not incorporate any other content (for example, video games or interactive quizzes) and their sole function shall be to store the above content.
