Protection of copyrights
As with any other content creator, the work of our photographers and photojournalists must be protected from misuse and illegal use.
Picture Alliance has retained PIXRAY, European Copyright Research GmbH, PicRights and KSP Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft mbH to assist us in our efforts to protect copyrights.
If you have been contacted by the law firm KSP, Pixray or European Copyright Research GmbH, we ask you to clarify these matters directly with the offices concerned.
As with any other content creator, the work of our photographers and photojournalists must be protected from misuse and illegal exploitation. Anyone who licenses Picture Alliance content for legitimate use is aware of the value of that content and the investment and creative effort that went into its production.
Picture Alliance, a wholly owned subsidiary of dpa Deutsche Presse-Agentur GmbH, supplies print media, broadcasters, online providers and other corporate clients in Germany and abroad with photos, graphics and other content. A global network of in-house and supplying photographers and partner agencies guarantees up-to-date international photo coverage as well as the provision of a comprehensive photo archive. Both the remuneration of the photographers and worldwide partners as well as the editorial, documentary and technical preparation of the material must be financed through the sale of our content and services. It is therefore in the interests of Picture Alliance and our paying customers to protect the content to which we are entitled to the rights of use.
