What websites have photos that I can use for a local advertising campaign?

Can I use "my Facebook fans photos" (that they have shared with me) in advertising pieces free from copyright?

  • I am curious that if facebook owns all photos people share until they delete them, that if I also can use all photos in my Fanpage that Fans have uploaded on my page.   I want to make sure or at least ask people for permission.  Wondering if it is necessary to ask or people lose all rights to the photos.

  • Answer:

    No and no. Facebook doesn't own your copyrights ( see https://www.facebook.com/help/?page=211911528839661 ) - they have a limited license to use your photos. And by no means does this abstraction give you any rights to use other people's photos posted to your page: those copyrights belong to the posters.
