This means that photos taken during the program may appear in publicly-accessible formats, such as the school's Instagram account, and in magazines, newspapers and websites featuring HKIS. In addition, HKIS-approved partner organizations may also use photos featuring summer program students in their communications and promotional materials, in alignment with our media guidelines.
