Staff and students: to understand the requirements for using promotional and display materials.

Marketing and communications teams: to help ensure that all materials follow our brand standards and comply with our legal obligations.

All promotional materials (displays, banners, posters) must be authorised by a person or organisation taking responsibility for content and display. The authoriser's name and contact details must be clearly visible on the materials.

For demonstrations, the organiser is considered the authoriser and must ensure policy compliance.

Permitted locations: Materials can be placed on noticeboards and other designated places. Use non-permanent attachments (tack pins, blu-tack, staples, tape) on noticeboards.

Restricted locations: Do not place or attach materials:

• over official notices or signs
• on information plinths
• to unapproved places like trees, fences, or walls.

Signs and banners: Prior approval is required to attach materials, banners, or structures to buildings or fixtures.

• Short-term portable signs (A-frames) are permitted if they have a space booking, list an authoriser, and don't block access or create hazards.
• Official University banners are allowed.
• Community members can apply for banner permission using the Service Portal.

Graffiti and chalking: Graffiti is only permitted in the graffiti tunnel.

Chalking is allowed only on footpaths and roadways (not the Main Quadrangle) and must be water-removable.

Central Operations Services staff may remove non-compliant materials without notice. You or your group may be charged for removal and damage.

Breaches can result in disciplinary action or civil or criminal proceedings.
