| By the act
of placing an order the customer expresses his right to reproduce
the image supplied under copyright law. The customer is absolutely
liable for any resulting violation of copyright action taken by
any third party.
Imagine IT will not intentionally copy or reproduce
any photograph or other image which is protected by copyright.
Copyright law can be roughly summarised as follows:
- Usually, whoever takes the photograph
owns the copyright. As long as this was not a professional photographer,
there are rarely any problems with permission.
- If the photograph is the work
of a professional photographer or photographic studio, you can
contact them and ask for written permission to copy/alter it.
This written permission should be sent with the photograph.
- If you cannot contact, or do
not know, the studio or professional, the general rule is that
copyright lasts for the lifetime of the photographer plus 75 years.
