I've been a bit of a sporadic contributor for a while but having a bit more time on my hands lately (thanks COVID) I've been looking through some of my images and the image manager options. I've only ever filled in the fields in the mandatory tab. I didn't even look in the optional tab. I think I naively assumed anything important would have been on the mandatory tab. However having finally looked in the optional tab I see there is a tick box for editorial use only which I obviously haven't been ticking. Apart from some photographs taken of my daughter, I have no property or model releases for any of my images. I have only sold a few images and from what I can see none of them are being used commercially. I'm more than happy to just sell my images for editorial use only. Should I be jumping in and ticking the box for editorial use only on all of my images.
I'm still not 100% sure about RF versus RM (I have a mixture of both). But maybe it's not somthing I should be too concerned about?
Sorry about such naive questions! But any help would be appreciated.
