Alamy Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Hello, To confirm, images with editorial only restrictions or personal use restrictions are still available to distributors - they are not removed from the pool. Distributors do have the option to not include them if they wish, but adding these restrictions does not remove them from distribution. Many thanks, Alamy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks, Alamy The above contradicts what you told me on 12 Sept. 2018. Quote from email received from CR: "Hi Phil, Personal use isn’t a scheme you can opt out of, it’s a license type that you can restrict. If you apply any restriction, your images can’t be used in the distribution pool. This isn’t something we plan to change in the near future, but it doesn’t mean that it won’t be changed ever. Thanks Corin Alamy Contributor Relations" Can you confirm what is correct re PU and Distribution please? Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil It's as we've confirmed in this thread Phil - we've been working on solving this for a while and the information you got on the 12th was correct at the time.

Thyrsis Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Would have been good if Alamy had told us of this fundamental change! I based my post on specific information given to me by contributor services. ‘Restricting your images will remove them from the distribution pool. Thanks, Shelley’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_rabe Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Is this regarding the setting per image to opt out of PU? I only noticed this recently, and was meaning to ask - so this overrides the April opt-out for PU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
