In general, you have complete, unlimited rights to copy and share films, videos, photographs, audio recordings, and documents that you or members of your close family have taken and or created yourselves. This is also true of publicly available materials like copies of census, birth, or marriage records. When you send these personally owned and created (or public domain) materials to us at FOREVER, we can digitize, copy, and save these materials for you without any limitation or concern, and you do not need to complete this form for us to digitize these items.
However, commercial movies, television programs, televised sporting events, recorded or written books, commercial radio programs or podcasts, professional photographic images, professionally produced art, and other intellectual property creations are subject to copyright laws under which it is illegal to make copies without the explicit permission of the copyright owner (e.g., professional photographer, videographer, television studio, film production company, athletic league, etc.).
If you would like FOREVER to digitize third party copyrighted material(s), please read, understand, complete, and sign this Copyright Waiver Form, and include it in your FOREVER® Box with the material you would like to digitize.
