Policies

For a full list of policies and procedures, please click here.

Below is the user agreement you must consent to before creating a booking. When creating your booking, please read the agreement IN FULL to understand your obligations.

  • If you lose equipment that has been checked out to you, you may be financially liable for up to $500. (This is the replacement cost for the recorders and the insurance deductible for the cameras.) We strongly encourage personal property insurance, but it is not required.
  • If equipment is stolen from you, you are required to give us a copy of the police report regarding the theft. If you do not have insurance to cover the loss, you may be financially liable for up to $500. (Note that the university offers insurance to students that would cover this $500 fee. For more information visit https://wildcatliving.uky.edu/personal-property-insurance.)
  • If you break any equipment through negligence, you may be charged for repairs or replacement.
  • You are solely responsible for pick-up, shooting and/or recording with and returning equipment.
  • Students who, because of carelessness or negligence, have damaged, lost or had stolen equipment may be notified and billed by the CI Business Center. The students held responsible may be asked, before the end of the semester, to report back to the CI Business Center a plan for repayment/replacement. If payment is not made by the end of the semester, the student may not be able to enroll in courses in the school for the following semester (and may be dropped from any courses they have enrolled in) or, if it is the student’s final semester, they may not be certified for graduation until payment is made.
  • You must provide a working phone number and an email address from an active account. Disconnected phones and/or faulty email addresses will result in loss of checkout privileges.
  • Equipment must be returned prior to the end of each semester. Failure to return equipment may result in the student’s account being locked and no grades released for that semester.
