Copyrightagent; ideaal voor de hardwerkende ZZP'er in de fotografie

Ik werk als fotograaf al jarenlang met dit bedrijf. Zij nemen mij al het werk aan claims en bijbehorende zaken uit handen. Ze werken op No-Cure-No-Pay dus pas als een zaak afgerond is worden hun kosten verrekend. Ideaal als zzp'er die liever foto's maakt dan achter licenties aan zit! Ook het contact tussen de 'klant' en Copyright Agent verloopt netjes en zoals het hoort. Uiteraard snappen we alle wrijving en haat die op ons geuit wordt; maar wie is er uiteindelijk verantwoordelijk voor JOU publicatie? Precies... even relativeren en netjes tot een passende oplossing komen.

Take down any unlicensed materials then ignore Copyright Agent

I am in the middle of a time wasting to and fro with Copyright Agent UK Ltd. Having tried many times to speak to Melanie I think it is a bot. Their emails are rambling and vague. My suggestion is to take down any materials if they are are unlicensed immediately and ignore Copyright Agent UK Ltd and their threatening emails.

Copyright Agent is not a scam however…

Copyright Agent is not a scam however its methods mean that they surf very close to the line using "shakedown" automated technology. To be absolutely clear, internet users should not use copyrighted images without prior permission and/or licence and there are plenty of free tools available out there to check the status of images. However, with tens of millions of images being published online every day in the UK alone, the use of copytighted images, accidentally or deliberately is likely to be very common. Put it another day, if you are walking down the public street and accidentally put one foot onto someones private land, you would not expect to be sued for trespass - it was an easily rectifiable mistake...and if you accidentally tramped on the owners Daffs, then the owner should be compensated for the cost of said Daffs! On my website, I spent an entire week checking that all the images were not subject to copyright. Copyright Agent however uses automated web crawling software which indexes websites and find pages that are not visible to the public - and guess what they found a image that was in an old test area of the site used for development, design experiments etc Of course the cease & desist letter was then automatically sent out demanding £700. I immediately of course removed the image and checked there were no more such images in non-public parts of my domain. But why £700? Why not £7m? Clearly it is a hugely inflated figure designed to frighten a small percentage of people top pay up -a classic shakedown So here is the clever thing that this company does - to find out more details of your claim you need to log on to a "case page" on their website - I have to admire them for this. By doing this they can save themelves a great deal of time and money by identifying cases that reached the intended target and have the recipients suitably worried to take action. Obviously their systems will then prioritise these cases. Personally I have no intention of doing this but no doubt many do. I am pretty conversant with, and a supporter of UK copyright law - if a case ever gets to court, standard damages for innocent infringement are based on the "reasonable license fee" i.e. what a user would have paid to license it legally, normally £5 to £50. I would very like much like Copyright Agent to take me to court, but as it will cost their solicitor £££ + VAT just to get out of bed, alas I doubt his will happen. In fact their UK company has only recently avoided being stuck off at Companies House. So in conclusion - dont break copyright law. If you have been shown to have done it, remove the images immediately. Do not engage with this company or offer any settlement if you are an innocent and minor offender

Dear Hannah, Thank you for your review that I believe deserve a reply from us and thank you for being clear that you don't dispute the underlying principle: using someone else's work without permission is wrong, period. A few points worth correcting, though. On the fee: a claim is not priced at the same cost as a licence. If it were, there would be no reason for anyone to license an image up front - the worst case of getting caught would simply be paying what you should have paid anyway. What would ever be the incentive to pay or get permission up front, if that was the case - in any business by the way. On the trespass analogy: stepping on a corner of land and stepping off isn't really the comparable case here. A more relevant comparison would be receiving a service or taking a product and not paying for it - like having your hair cut and then walk out without paying for it. On visibility: our monitoring technology only identifies content that is actually publicly accessible - if a page is not public, it is not something we could find. So bottom line, our system can only access and find usages that are public to everyone. On your advice to others — "don't engage, just remove it, especially if you're a minor or innocent offender" — this is worth pushing back on directly. Being a minor user of an image doesn't allow you to do what you want for free, you are bound to the same laws as a non-minor. And if someone believe they're innocent, then they should have a permission or license and then it's very easy and straightforward: provide the licence or permission that shows the use was authorised - then we will close the case and inform the rights holder to update their records - why not engage if you are innocent! Not engaging at all removes that option and simply signals that you don't have the proper permission to use the image. "Remove it if you're caught, and don't respond" isn't a policy that works at all, it just means that you acknowledge that unauthorised use is free until the point of discovery, which removes any reason to license in the first place. Imagine your own work being used the same way by people who never intended to pay and who you'd now be told not to bother engaging with either. That's the actual problem we're trying to solve together with photographers and agencies who otherwise have no way of knowing where their work ends up, or getting paid at all.

Possibly Scammed

Paid an agreed amount (lot less than they were asking) I have emailed several times for a receipt of my payment to them which have been ignored with not even an acknowledgement to the emails.... So yes I think I was scammed (my fault) buy Copyright agent.

Schimmig.

Totaal onbereikbaar. Als je ze mailt, geen reactie. Als je ze belt tussen 10-12 uur (dat zijn hun kantoortijden, geef mij zo'n baan!), vraagt een cassettebandje je te bellen tussen 10 en 12:))) Schimmig. Schimmig. Schimmig. Update: Ik had de fotograaf benaderd die Copyright Agent claimt te vertegenwoordigen. Die reageerde wekenlang niet tot een paar uur na deze review. Toen kreeg ik ineens een boze mail van hem…in opdracht van dit agentschap? Wat ik zeg: schimmig.
