The Legal Risk Score of a Photo Release Form Template is Low

Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:

  • The document grants extensive control over the use and modification of the photographs to one party, including the right to edit, delete, and alter the photographs without any obligation to consult or gain approval from the photographed individual.
  • The individual being photographed relinquishes all claims to ownership and copyright of the photographs, allowing the other party complete ownership and the freedom to exploit these images in any manner, including future media not yet invented.
  • There is a complete waiver of moral rights and any potential claims for infringement or misuse of the photographs, which significantly limits the legal recourse available to the photographed individual should they disagree with the use of their images.
