Terms of Use and Image Usage Policy

Purpose of the online catalogue

The online catalogue of the Christian Museum makes information, descriptions and digital images relating to the Museum’s collections and objects available for informational, educational and research purposes.

The database is continuously expanded and updated. The published information reflects the current state of collection cataloguing and research; consequently, the identification, dating, attribution, provenance, description and bibliography of individual objects may be revised or supplemented over time.

Use of object data and texts

The basic information, descriptions and other textual content published in the online catalogue may be quoted for educational, research and public-information purposes, provided that the source is accurately acknowledged.

The substantial or complete reproduction, adaptation, republication or commercial use of the texts, as well as their systematic incorporation into another database, requires the prior written permission of the Christian Museum.

Recommended citation:

Christian Museum, Esztergom, online catalogue, title and inventory number of the object, date of access and URL of the object record.

Use of images

Images published in the online catalogue may be used freely only for personal and research purposes, provided that the source is accurately acknowledged.

Wherever possible, the credit should include the title of the object, the name of the Christian Museum, the inventory number, the photographer—where credited—and the URL of the object record.

The use of images in publications, press products, websites, social-media posts, films, advertisements or any other public medium requires the prior written permission of the Christian Museum.

Cropping images, making substantial alterations to their colours, modifying them graphically or presenting them in a misleading context is permitted only following prior consultation with the Museum.

Links and external websites

Links to individual object records in the online catalogue may be freely shared, provided that they do not create the impression that the Christian Museum supports or endorses the person, organisation, product or service publishing the link.

The catalogue may also contain links to external websites. The Christian Museum accepts no responsibility for the content, availability or data-processing practices of such external websites.

Accuracy of information

The Christian Museum endeavours to ensure that the information in the online catalogue is accurate and up to date. The database is, however, the product of an ongoing process of research and collection cataloguing. The Museum accepts no responsibility for typographical errors, omissions or revisions made necessary by the progress of research.

Detailed provisions concerning the personal data of website visitors, contact with the Museum and the use of cookies are set out in the Christian Museum’s separate Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

Amendments to these terms

The Christian Museum reserves the right to amend these Terms of Use in response to the development of the online catalogue and to changes in the relevant legal and institutional environment.
