Every image in the Easia Media Library includes usage information that explains how it may be used. This article shows you where to find that information and how to read it, so you can publish with confidence.
Overview
Before publishing an image on your website, brochure, proposal, or campaign, check its usage information in Asset Preview. Three fields work together:
- Terms & Conditions state what the image may be used for and any restrictions, such as resale or redistribution.
- Copyright identifies the owner and tells you whether a credit is required.
- Photographer / License provides background information about the source of the image. It does not decide whether a credit is required.
Where to check
There are two ways to review an image's information:
Quick check from the Library
Hover over an image to view key metadata without opening the asset. Depending on the information available for that image, you may see details such as:
- Keywords
- Tags
- Color
- Content Type
- Copyright
- Date Created
This is useful when you want to quickly compare images while browsing search results.
Full check in Asset Preview
Open the image in Asset Preview to review its full usage information before downloading, publishing, or sharing it. Check:
- Terms & Conditions
- Copyright
- Photographer / License
Tip: Use the hover information for a quick check, but open Asset Preview before using an image when you need to confirm its usage conditions.
How to read the usage information
Each field answers a different question. For the full breakdown, see: Understand What Each Usage Label Allows and Credit the right owner: copyright and attribution.
A quick checklist before publishing
- Check the Terms & Conditions. What is this image approved for, and are there any restrictions, such as resale or redistribution?
- Check the Copyright field. Who owns the image? If it shows Easia Travel, no credit is needed. If it shows a partner or photographer name, display that name as a copyright line under the image.
- Check the Photographer / License field. This is background information about the source. It does not decide whether a credit is required.
You don't need legal expertise to use these fields correctly. Check all three together before you publish.
Best practices
- Review the three fields together, not in isolation.
- Display a credit whenever the Copyright field shows a partner or photographer name.
- Use the image only for its permitted purpose.
- If the usage information looks incorrect or inconsistent, contact your Easia Travel representative before publishing.
Tip: Copyright decides whether you must credit the image, Terms & Conditions define how you may use it, and Photographer / License is background information only.
