Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Social networks are considered a marketing medium, just like magazines and newspapers. Therefore, you need this document if you want to use someone’s photos or videos for your company’s Facebook page, Instagram account, and the like.
If you want to use the photographs or videos of a minor, you need to obtain the parent or guardian’s consent and signature. Some states do not require a parent’s signature if the person is 18 or over, but we suggest you verify the law of your state.
No. If you are a photographer, you have a copyright to the photo taken by you, which means that you can reproduce it and create copies of it. However, the copyright does not allow you to use someone else’s image or likeness for commercial purposes, such as advertising your services. That is why photographers who are copyright owners must still obtain this permission.
