What is private, what is commercial?

If you link or show where you would like to show one or more of my pictures, an offer with which you or a business partner would like to contribute to your or his livelihood, then this is a commercial use. For example, a private blog is considered commercial if you show Google-Adwords or an advertising banner in the footer, but otherwise only write about cats.

COMMERCIALLY IT IS ...

… if your website or Instagram or Facebook profile or Facebook page or blog uses:

  • Note / link to an offer for money or donation
  • Facebook events with offers for money or donation
  • Integration of affiliate programs
  • Appointment announcements of events for money or donation
  • Thumbnails of flyers with offers for money or donation
  • banners

PLEASE ASK BEFORE USE

If you advertise with my pictures for something with which you or others earn their living and you have NOT personally asked me before for permission, I charge you €84* per image instead of the regular €42*.

Your Help

Please write me a short message if I should delete an image online that shows you or your child alone or in a small group … I delete it immediately!

I publish the images in my artistic work as a photographer and they are an expression of my creative process and for me a homage to nature and every single person. I choose the pictures with care and mindfulness and I only want to show the most beautiful and precious in the depicted ones … but respect without ifs and buts, if you want me to delete a picture.
