Style Guide

For Press Releases and Editorial Submissions please note:

Writing Style - Please make sure that all press releases or editorial submissions are over 300 words, are in past tense (said not says), and third person. Any editorials or releases received that do not match our style guide will be edited.

RPL Style Guide for Using Trademark Symbols & Preferred Usage in New Zealand Business Writing
On all of Review magazines, we do not use either the TM symbol or ® in any of our editorial or news copy but will capitalise or use an initial cap  (e.g. Ghiotti, Watties). In press releases and business writing, it is generally recommended as a style guide for publishing in New Zealand to use the trademark symbol [superscript ® or TM] on the first instance only or with the most prominent use of the mark outside of headings. The remaining instances should be without the symbol.  Review Publishing Co Ltd's editorial style guide is not to use either the superscript ® or TM on editorial content after the first mention.

Superscript ® or TM are used in paid display advertising content only as a general rule.

The full trademarked name and proper capitalisation, however, are used in editorial and advertorial content. Our intent is to make the content easy to read for the reader, and by only using the superscript ® or TM sparingly, we engage better with the reader while still enforcing the trademark message.

Photography and images
High-resolution images are requested. Minimum 300 dpi.

Contributors, including advertisers and public relations representatives, retain copyright in all photographs and visual material supplied, unless otherwise agreed in writing. By supplying images, the contributor warrants that they are the copyright owner or have lawful authority to provide the material for publication, including all necessary licences, permissions, and releases for editorial and promotional use.

Where images include third-party content, identifiable individuals, artworks, trademarks, or locations requiring consent, the contributor confirms that all relevant permissions have been obtained and that any usage conditions or licensing restrictions have been clearly disclosed at the time of submission.

For images supplied with press releases, the sender confirms that they hold the rights to distribute those images for media use.

Review Publishing Co Ltd and its platforms publish submitted material in good faith. Any claim or allegation of copyright infringement relating to supplied images must be notified to Review Publishing Co Ltd in writing within 30 days of first publication. This notification period is required so we can reasonably investigate, verify source material, and, where appropriate, take remedial action.

Outside of this 30-day period, Review Publishing Co Ltd may no longer hold original source files, submission records, or correspondence. In some cases, images are uploaded directly by contributors or agencies, and in others content is received via high volumes of press releases, meaning historical emails and attachments are not retained indefinitely.

Review Publishing Co Ltd does not accept liability for copyright infringement arising from material supplied by third parties. Any copyright queries, claims, or disputes will be referred to the contributor or brand owner responsible for the content.
