Hi, on one of the websites I manage the client keeps asking me to make updates and he always sends images that he's grabbed off Goggle.
I've tried to explain about copyright numerous times, and he either doesn't care or doesn't understand the issue.
It upsets me every time he does it, and each time I say about it but I just wondered where I stand legally.
I have it documented in emails that I have sent to him saying that it shouldn't be done, and pointing out the legal issue and I have also stated "As long as you’re happy that the liability falls with you then I’ll carry on doing what you ask."
If someone came across the site and started to cause a fuss, is there any come back on the designer/developer or even hosting company or is it all down to the owner of the website? Do you think I've covered myself with what I have said. Providing I keep the audit trail or the fact that I'm facilitating this action does it come back on me or my company?
thanks in advance.
Does anyone else get this problem?
