| Sep 7, 2019 at 5:26 | comment | added | xiota | "want to know if there is a centralised resource or general procedure" – 1. Contact the property owner. 2. Contact a lawyer. | |

Now I understand what these nudist magazines of my youth were all about:) | |

| Sep 6, 2019 at 12:48 | comment | added | Tetsujin | @xenoid You'd think so - that one doesn't make sense to me. The Eiffel one I know about, also the Rubik's cube… but I'd be willing to bet half the disclaimers on sites like that are hearsay & not actually tested with a lawyer. | |
| Sep 6, 2019 at 12:48 | comment | added | A. Arredondo | I just want to know if there is a centralised resource or general procedure for finding out whether a monument in a public park for instance, or a major landmark of a city (not as major as Eiffel tower in Paris, mind you) is subject to a property release. | |

| Sep 6, 2019 at 12:37 | comment | added | scottbb♦ | I understand the frustration about IP/trademark/property rights and releases, but I think this is too broad. Property image rights are dependent upon local laws and jurisdictions, and whether the view of individual properties have been claimed as IP (such as the Hollywood sign). Furthermore, objects in a particular property do not necessarily require/convey the same restrictions as the property itself. | |
| Sep 6, 2019 at 12:33 | comment | added | Tetsujin | They're pointing out the odd foibles - the lighting on the Eiffel tower, for instance is subject to copyright, but the tower itself isn't. On the other hand I don't get the car one. My car has been in several movies, yet I've never known anyone have to ask Mercedes to do that. | |
