Right to use images
posted by yetissilSTAFFMOD on June 2, 2016 at 9:01 AM
Hello,
I wanted to know if I could save your movie posters and for example use it on my site. If so, do I add a link to the website TMDB or simply quoted the author? etc ...
I read the "terms and use" but I have not found anything on intellectual property images ....
Sorry for my English, Mr Rocher.

Hi guys,
You have our permission to link to the image from TMDb, yes. However, if you are asking about copyrights and the like, that is not a question I can really answer. You would be best to consult the copyright holders/lawyer in your jurisdiction to see what's allowed.

Hello,
Thank you for your réponse.OK So we have the right to insert the TMDb images.
For example, for each movie there is a list of posters added by users. These images (film posters) are they created by TMDB or not? Can we save them and we tank completely?
If anyone can help me...
Regards, (sorry for my english) Vincent Rocher

@yetissil We allow you to use and even cache them as long as you attribute TMDb as the source. What I can't say is that you have permission from the copyright owners. You will have to figure that out on your own.

Thank you very much for your answer.
Last question, can I save the image on my drive to resize or compress it and then post it on my blog? If I quote the author with a link to the source TMDb , of course.
Thank you.
