Welcome to Bildombudsmannen
Staffan Teste, Bildombudsmannen AB, works as Picture ombudsman for Nordic countries. If you have problem to receive money from a buyer we can help you. We are involved in infringements of pictures owned by small copyright owners to big rights holders and picture agencies. As long as you own the copyright we will help you.
Since 1977 we have helped several hundred copyright owners to receive money from a few thousand crowns to half a million. During late 90-ties we helped 18 picture agencies to receive about one million crowns from a collecting society. We help copyright owners and picture buyers to write fair contracts. We have also helped models to receive what they should and helped people, who have been unlawfully used in advertising.
Teste is also working for BLF the Swedish organisation for photo companies and agencies in Sweden, second largest organisation of that kind in Europe and a member of Cepic.
Staffan Teste has experience in International law in his position as a former member of the board of the European Picture agency organisation Cepic. He has represent Cepic in the World Intellectual Organisation, WIPO and in EU-hearings.
Companies outside Sweden use Bildombudsmannen to help them with their problems in the picture world. Bildombudsmannen represent members of Picscout www.picscout.com on Nordic countries. Staffan Teste is member of an International law discussion group in Cepic. Every year lawyers from that group meet at Cepic conference in Europe.
Send an email to teste@bildombudsmannen.se and tell us your problems. We work on a commission base after a small amount of introduction money. If it turned out to be impossible to solve your case it does not cost you anything more.
Jag har en fråga.
Jag jobbar på ett litet företag som gör annonser. Vi har en kund som skickat in text och bild till oss. Vi har gjort en annons som kunden godkänt och som han är nöjd med.
När den sen publicerats i tidningen så visade det sig att bilden inte var kundens, han hade hämtat den ute på Google.
Detta visste inte vi som gjorde annonsen förrän den publicerats.
Vem blir skyldig i detta? Kunden som skickat in materialet, vi som gjorde annonsen eller tidningen som publicerade bilden?
Hur skulle tidningen och vi kunna veta att han snott den från nätet, när han säger att han vill ha den bilden i annonsen? Måste vi som gör annonsen ifrågasätta alla bilder som skickas in av kunder?
En annan fråga.
Om en privatperson har skickat in en bild på sig själv som någon annan fotat och skickat in till tidningen som en grattis-annons (alltså ej reklamsammanhang), är det OK? Om inte, är det privatpersonen som skickat in fotot eller tidningen som publicerat den som är skyldig? Hur kan tidningen veta att bilden inte är OK?
