Who owns my image

Who owns my image?

Who owns my online published image

Last year Facebook announced of their intention to create a new safety tool which would alert  parents that they were about to publish a photo of their child whilst he or she is are still minors.

Some legal experts believe that in the years to come we might see children filing lawsuits against their parents for unlawfully compromising their right to private life. In France, publishing images without one’s consent and in breach of one’s private life could result in criminal law sanction, a prison sentence of 12 months and a fine. So if you ask the question, who owns my image? You might be surprised to learn that under European law, it is not necessarily the copyright owner but rather someone else altogether. Listen to Siobhan McGarry’s radio interview with Yair Cohen where she asks Yair Who owns my image?

Recently I gave an interview to HighSnobiety.com setting out in some detail my law firm's strategies to completely remove images, videos and other material from the internet. Complete removal from the internet is a unique service that my law firm has been offering for retired celebs who have now decided to settle down, start a family and put their public past behind them.

Complete removal of images and videos from the internet is a service which my law firm is uniquely placed to provide. We use both legal strategies and personal connections with websites operators and with many internet law attorneys who I have known for years and who can help speeding up the process or removal of erotic images from websites they act for in the USA.

Our removal service of course is discreet and highly confidential. In some cases it takes for up to a year to clean up the internet from unwanted images and videos but the end result is almost always far better and highly cleaner than what we set our celebrity clients to hope for.

“In some cases we’ve had to remove tens of thousands of images and videos for just one client alone,” he explains. “You can do it, but you have to work hard and delicately. Remove them one by one. Each case has unique circumstances. Some images can be removed on copyright grounds, some can be removed on privacy grounds, some could be removed on harassment. Some projects take eight months to a year. We have to be very stubborn.”

Facebook legal advice - London social media lawyers

Why is it that only lawyers can get in touch with Facbeook?


Have you recently tried to engage with Facebook, ask a question, speak to anyone in the company, leave a message or communicate in any way? If you have, then I share your pain. Facebook is faceless and this is now official. The company that says it champions personal interaction has given each of its users a unique personal identification number. Facebook has also removed telephone and email contact information for its team from the internet so that you don't bother its employees with all sorts of nonsense, including complaints about your personal safety, breach of your privacy or defamation of your character.
Don't worry though. If they need to get in touch with you because you have allegedly breached Facebook's advertising rules, they will do so. After all Facebook has got your email address and mobile telephone number handy.



As we we all post millions of  images, videos and other personal data onto Facebook each day, most of us give  little thought to what would happen if one day we, our children, family or friends will want to have all or some of this data permanently removed from the internet. Who would they contact? Who will they be able to speak to? Would they ever be able to grab the attention of Facebook's employees? And what if Facebook do nothing about their request, would they be able to complain to anyone?
For now at least, it seems the only way you can get noticed by Facebook is through internet and social media lawyers, who happened to have good contact details for the organisation. And we are here to help. I much rather though Facebook had given out an email address or had provided a live chat facility so that the poor and vulnerable in our society are able to communicate with the company too....
