This highlight will cover copyright as it is defined by French law. American Copyright (©) cannot be applied in France. It is very different from the French “droit d’auteur”, but it can be used to identify the entity that needs to be contacted to get the authorization to use copyrighted material.

Pictures

There are two types of rights you need to know and respect:

  • the author’s copyright: the picture is protected if its originality is proved.
  • the subject’s rights:
    • if the persons can be recognized (ie if they are not part of a crowd), you need to make sure they have signed an authorization to use their image in the precise context you want to use it in.
    • if the picture contains some type of creation (a building for example) that is protected by copyright : you need to make sure...
