Please note that by signing the Reprographics Order Form you are agreeing to these terms and conditions

Copyright

Images taken on or before December 31, 1948 are considered to be in the public domain and are therefore free from copyright restrictions

Images taken on or after January 1, 1949 are covered by the restrictions of the Copyright Act and are protected for a period of 50 years after the death of the creator (the photographer). This means that photographs from this era cannot be reproduced (mechanically, digitally or electronically) without the permission of the copyright holder. It is the responsibility of the client to find and secure this permission.

Images which have been printed or used in the creation of a new work (for example a book or work of art) may have a period of additional copyright protection. Images taken on behalf of the Crown (Government of Canada) have perpetual copyright protection.

The Copyright Act provides that it is not an infringement of copyright to provide a copy for the purposes of research, private study, criticism or news reporting.

Commercial Use

In addition to standard reproduction fees, a Commercial Use fee will be charged on every image obtained for purposes other than research, private study, criticism or news reporting. Some examples of situations where this fee is charged: using images to decorate a store, office or restaurant; advertising (print, video, digital, electronic) or promotions; for use in books, pamphlets, annual reports. Payment of the fee secures for the client one-time only rights to use the image.

Donor restrictions

At the time that records are donated to the Archives, the donor may place access restrictions upon use and reproduction. These may cover any or all of the material; may be for a specific period of time; or may simply limit the use of reproductions. Any restrictions so placed are documented. Archives staff will inform the client if donor restrictions apply.

Use of images

1.  The Customer may not reproduce, sell or permit others to reproduce the image.

2.  In authorizing the publication of images from the Collection, the Archives does not surrender its own right to publish, or grant permission to others to do so.

3.  The Region of Peel must be credited for each image. For example in print material each image should be cited in close proximity to it, or in a special section devoted to the credits. For example, Peel Art Gallery, Museum and Archives, R. K. Cooper Collection, 1992.034. For television, movie, video or other electronic mediums, a single credit to PAMA Archives is acceptable.

One complimentary copy of every publication, regardless of format, in which an archival image supplied by the PAMA Archives appears, must be sent, within 15 days of publication in any format, to PAMA Archives, 9 Wellington St. East, Brampton, Ontario L6W 1Y1
