The unauthorized use of images has grown around the world and, in Brazil in particular, this type of violation of personal rights has become a civil and criminal problem.
The drafting of a license agreement for the use of a person’s image is an important legal instrument that guarantees the protection of the image rights of individuals in different contexts. The image usage contract is an agreement signed between two parties, usually an individual and a company or organization, which sets out the conditions for using the image of the person in question. The image use license is a document that authorizes the use of a person’s image by third parties in a given context.
The purpose of the image use license is to protect the individual’s right to image, ensuring that the use of their image is carried out properly, respecting their dignity, privacy and integrity. This includes authorization to use the image in advertising, movies, TV programs, among others.
In the contract and in the image use license, the conditions of use of the image must be foreseen, such as the purpose for which the image will be used, the form of disclosure, the expiry date, remuneration and other relevant information. In addition, it is essential that the document complies with current legislation, to guarantee the validity of the agreement.
The absence of a contract or a license to use an image can lead to legal problems, such as the misuse of a person’s image without authorization or the violation of image rights. Therefore, it is essential that measures are taken to guarantee the protection of the image rights of individuals in different contexts.
In summary, the contract and the image use license are important legal instruments that aim to guarantee the protection of the image rights of individuals in different contexts. It is essential that measures are taken to ensure the protection of these rights and to avoid legal problems arising from the misuse of a person’s image.
