OneGate Media handles the licensing of radio and television productions from NDR, ARD-aktuell, and Radio Bremen, as well as productions from the DFF and content from the GDR TV archive. You can license full programs, individual segments, or excerpts from us for non-commercial purposes.
What does “non-commercial” mean?
A usage is considered non-commercial when:
It is not intended for profit, or the economic aspect is clearly secondary and the purpose serves educational, cultural, or social goals.
Examples of non-commercial use include:
- Screenings (e.g. by associations or public institutions)
- Exhibitions
- Educational and training purposes (e.g. in universities, publishing houses, or clubs)
Important Information
- Private use (e.g. for personal viewing) is not part of non-commercial licensing and cannot be processed by us.
- License fees depend on the purpose, duration of use, and potential material costs.
- Non-commercial use is not covered by the public broadcasting fee. OneGate Media grants these licenses as part of a commercial service in accordance with § 40 of the German Media State Treaty (Medienstaatsvertrag).
Therefore, licenses cannot be granted free of charge. - Please send your request at least three weeks before the planned usage.
- You can list multiple productions with the same intended use in one form. For different uses, please fill out a separate form for each.
