Copyright question

HI all, I'm trying to find who to contact to get written consent to use a couple images from Destiny. Specifically I want to use the class logos. Like the ones that appear on the emblems for each class. As well as an image of the traveler with 3 guardians standing underneath. So far I have emailed the legal department at Activision (a week ago). Tweeted DeeJ and Bungie_Help. I even found someone selling a t-shirt with the warlock logo on it and Tweeted them to ask who they contacted. No one has responded and I'm getting really frustrated. If anyone here knows who to contact I am most appreciative. Cheers, -quasikrys

  • Hi quasikrys, It entirely depends on how you're planning to use the class logos, and for what purpose. You can use our YouTube Monetization policy as a general guideline: https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/12609

      Hey, This should answer any questions you have regarding content copyright: [quote]Your use of our data and content must be non-commercial, unless you obtain Bungie’s prior written permission.

The license that we grant to you only covers the things that we create: the “Bungie Content” (as defined below). If we have a license to use someone else’s music or art, we can’t extend it to you, so you’ll have to reach out to them for permission. We ask that you put some time and effort into your content. Make it your own. Don't just upload a copy of our video and slap ads on it. We don't slap ads on our own stuff. If you do that, we reserve the right to have the content removed and send you a nasty letter. In fact, we can change this policy, or order you to stop sharing our content for any reason, at any time without warning, even if we have previously given you permission.

You must not use the name of any Bungie games in the title of Your Content. You must not grant anyone else an exclusive license to distribute Your Content. Your Content must not infringe any intellectual property rights, violate any person’s rights (such as right to privacy), or misappropriate any person’s intellectual property.

      • Is there no one here who can help me with this? I really want to move forward on this project but I can't until this is resolved. I am trying to make a t-shirt for my clan. It will be for private use and only available to clan members not for profit nor to the general public. The printing company won't let me proceed till I get the consent. Please help. -Kris (quasikrys)

          Bungie has a page somewhere on Bungie.net that details what qualifies as fair use and what does not breach their copyright. I have read it before. Unfortunately, I cannot find it myself. I would suggest searching for this page. It definitely exists.
