Keep this in mind anytime you\u2019re using a photo with a person in it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you don\u2019t have that person\u2019s permission<\/strong>, and\/or you\u2019re not getting it from a site that\u2019s letting you use it with the person\u2019s permission, it\u2019s best to stay away.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Another Company\u2019s Branding<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Last but not least, if the content contains another company\u2019s branding (e.g., a logo, trademark, slogan or other aspect of the company\u2019s commercial identity), you risk trademark infringement, false advertising, false endorsement, and a host of other trademark-related claims.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Essentially,<\/strong> the risk is that the company believes you\u2019re using their branding to confuse or deceive consumers or make them think there\u2019s a connection between their company and yours.<\/p>\n<p>In that case, they will likely come after you on whatever legal grounds they can think of.<\/p>\n<p>(Exception: if you are comparing your company or product to a competitor\u2019s and making truthful statements about your competitor or their product, then there is very little they can do about it. Just be very careful if you go this route because if you tick them off enough, they may decide to come after you anyway.)<\/p>\n<p><strong>So, to sum up<\/strong>, while you technically can use other people\u2019s content in your marketing, you\u2019re taking a lot of risks if you don\u2019t go through the proper legal channels.<\/p>\n<p>The safest route is always to get permission or properly license the content from a legitimate website.<\/p>\n<p>If you have questions about using other people\u2019s content in your marketing or want someone to review your marketing campaign for legal issues, please feel free to email me at <a href=\"mailto:kaway@kawaylaw.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">kaway@kawaylaw.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to read more articles like this one Writer\u2019s Fun Zone? <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/contact-beth\/#signup\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Subscribe here.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">***<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>ABOUT THE AUTHOR<\/h2>\n<p><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/2019\/06\/07\/what-do-i-need-to-know-about-the-california-consumer-privacy-act-ccpa-by-kelley-way\/kawaylaw.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"kawaylaw.com noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-19891 tc-smart-load-skip tc-smart-loaded\" title=\"Kelley Way\" src=\"https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/way18CRWEB-240x300.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/way18CRWEB-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/way18CRWEB-640x800.jpg 640w, https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/way18CRWEB.jpg 700w\" alt=\"Kelley Way\" width=\"150\" height=\"188\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Kelley Way was born and raised in Walnut Creek, California.
