Document background
The Image With Copyright License is essential for businesses and individuals seeking to legally use copyrighted images in Belgium and, where applicable, internationally. This document is particularly relevant in today's digital economy where image licensing has become increasingly important across various industries. The agreement is structured to comply with Belgian copyright law, specifically the Code of Economic Law Book XI, while also adhering to EU copyright directives. It provides a comprehensive framework for defining usage rights, territorial limitations, duration, modification rights, and attribution requirements. The document is designed to protect both the rights holder's interests (including moral rights, which are strongly protected under Belgian law) and the licensee's need for clear usage permissions. It is commonly used for commercial photography, artwork, digital content, and stock images, whether for single-use instances or ongoing licensing arrangements.
