Getty Images Letter Forum / Re: Need an opinion on a letter I received.
« on: September 02, 2014, 01:31:42 PM »
I just received a letter from Sanders and I was curious as to how your issue was resolved. THey first contacted me on Thursday August 28th citing that there were 9 infringements. When I looked at the screenshots I only saw five images and 9 screen grabs...some of which were duplicates. Aditionally, I thought it was odd that the law firm used my maiden name and a 10-year-old address in their letter. It's easy enough to find that information online.
I responded only to say that the images had been removed. Then they replied to me today, Sept. 2nd, asking to set up a conversation about resolution for the time frame that the images were up on the site.
I don't feel comfortable speaking directly to them. I don't think I should have to pay anything since I sourced the images. I don't make any money off of my site and do it just for fun.
Also, I want to know how to proceed going further. Can I just not have a website anymore? What photos are safe to use?
Please help!
