Policies

Gridline Rescue is an independent project and is not associated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, licensed by or affiliated with Formula 1, the FIA, any racing team, driver, championship, event organiser, sponsor, manufacturer or brand owner.

All trademarks, logos, names, images and intellectual property remain the property of their respective owners.

Any references to motorsport series, teams, brands, events or campaigns are used only where necessary to describe genuine original rescued items. Gridline Rescue does not claim official status, approval or partnership with any rights holder unless this is explicitly stated in writing.

Gridline Rescue does not use official logos or protected brand assets as part of its own branding.

Gridline Rescue only aims to handle genuine original promotional materials that have been lawfully donated, transferred or released by businesses or organisations authorised to do so.

Gridline Rescue does not manufacture, print, scan, copy or reproduce protected motorsport artwork, posters, logos, promotional materials or merchandise.

Items are handled and described as genuine rescued collector pieces, with condition and known background described as honestly as possible.

Before accepting materials, Gridline Rescue asks donating businesses or organisations to confirm that they are authorised to donate, dispose of or transfer the materials.

Donors should not provide items that:

• Must be returned to a supplier, agency, brand or promoter
• Are subject to destruction instructions
• Are still required for an active campaign
• Contain confidential information
• Contain personal data
• Are unsafe to collect or handle
• Are counterfeit, copied or unlawfully reproduced

Gridline Rescue is being developed with giving back at its core.

As the project grows, a share of proceeds from rescued items will be used to support local charities and good causes.

Until any formal named charity partnership is agreed in writing, Gridline Rescue will not represent itself as fundraising on behalf of one specific charity.

Once a formal charity or good-cause arrangement is confirmed, Gridline Rescue will publish clear information explaining: the chosen charity or good cause, the donation method, whether donations are based on sale price, profit or fixed contributions, donation totals, and impact updates.

Items made available through Gridline Rescue are rescued original promotional materials sold as collector pieces.

They are not new official merchandise.

They may show signs of use, storage, handling, mounting, fading, creasing or wear.

Condition will be described as clearly as possible before sale.

The environmental aim of Gridline Rescue is to reduce avoidable waste by diverting suitable motorsport and automotive promotional materials from landfill, skips or destruction where lawful and practical.

If you are a rights holder, brand owner, agency or organisation and believe an item has been listed incorrectly or should not have been transferred, please contact Gridline Rescue so the matter can be reviewed promptly.
