Author Topic: Updated content policies on Adobe Stock (Read 3539 times)

No one else got this yesterday? Got a mail with the title "Updated content policies on Adobe Stock"

And it says "As of June 27, 2024, Adobe Stock will be updating its content policies. You are receiving this email because you have 1 assets that will be removed from the site. For additional information about the updated policies, please see our Account and Submission Guidelines."

There is a link to the Account and Submission Guidelines, but I don't see anything new and I don't see anything any of my images would not comply with, so I have no idea what that one asset that will be removed is and why.

I already have 1 asset removed from my port without any reason. When I clicked to see the reason, it just sent me to rejected page and that's it.

Not yet, but its probably a matter of time before we all see this kind of message whether we have stuff that might go or stay.

I got one today to tell me 42 of my assets have been deleted. But there is no info about what assets they were. It would be nice to know what to avoid shooting.

I also got this email with 1 asset removed.

I also wonder on how can we keep updated with changes happening to the policies so frequently.
Every now and then you see some policy change, restrictions, guidelines, compliances etc.

The game is getting tougher, do a small mistake and you are gone.

Me too, I received the email saying that 2 assets will be removed.
It would be interesting to know which ones and why.

Also a clear underlining of the policy changes would be helpful

Is the "no nudity" clause new? It used to be allowed if the MR included a photo ID, wasn't it?

Sebastian Radu · « **Reply #7 on:** June 28, 2024, 03:06 »

I got the same email yesterday. An asset was removed.
Is it me or is Adobe (also) really starting to become more and more a non-transparent company?

$:-\$

a few months ago one of my contents was removed,the reason was:"removal of audits inconsistent with the terms"

on the rejected content page I found the content with this explanation:

"This content was removed for violating Adobe Stock's content submission guidelines.We have determined that this content is inconsistent with the Stock Contributor Terms on based on an internal audit.For more information about this policy,why this content was found to be inconsistent with the Terms,and your options for appeal,please see Content Submission Guidelines."

so what?I don't see anything strange or non-transparent,everything is very clear,the terms have been updated and some previously uploaded content no longer meets the new terms.

if the terms have been updated there is definitely a reason,I don't think Adobe Stock likes to update terms or remove content,
just for the sake of it!

That's fine, I agree
Anyway still it would bew helpful to know which and why some assets was removed
And, in short, what is exactly new in the updated terms.

Just to be deeply informed

An updated page of the new guidelines would be really helpful so we know what to avoid.

Anyone here can tell us what kind of content was removed?

none of you have the removed content in the pages of the rejected content section?

How is it possible to find out by ourselves only one or two images in 10/15 pages of rejections?
They are ordered with submission date. Really hard to find out which one(s) has been added to rejected

Do these assets have any specific thing in common? Do you have any guesses why they are being eliminated?

I wouldn't know which of the images haven't been in that section before.

Faustvasea · « **Reply #17 on:** June 28, 2024, 11:38 »

I think the removed assets are basically totally deleted. I have 1 removed for some reason. No clear instructions why.

in my case,the content that was deleted a few months ago was listed among the rejected content,and I found it in 9 pages of rejected content,because i look at the reason why it was rejected.

in my case the reason was "remove audit:incompatible with terms".

now,I don't know if even in this case the removed contents ended up among the rejected contents,like I said,it happened to me a few months ago,and I don't even know if the reason is the same "audit removal",but most likely,I think you can find the removed contents among the rejected ones,there are only a few pages...i hope so,maybe someone has 1000 pages of rejected ones!

I got same email with 2 assets supposedly removed but I dont see anything missing. I wish when things got rejected they would show proof of what is wrong, close up screen shot or anything that would help me understand what needs to be done to meet the standards. Am alwats left guessing and when as a customer I downloaded images for work its amazing how bad the quality is sometimes and am baffled by how I get a 60% rejection rate.

WendyT · « **Reply #20 on:** June 28, 2024, 16:37 »

wow it sounds like a lot of us have been caught up in this. I have had one asset removed, with no idea which one and exactly what term it violates.

The algorithm is the pain.

One of my illustration shows two kids with pot smoking parents with the message, that these parents are bad role models. Years later it was found it was inappropriate, because of the “pot smoking kids”.
One vector illustration shows motives from India, “Indian” textures. “Indian” is politically not correct, mixing up American Natives. No chance.
Keep away from the keywords “church” and “child abuse”. This is very offensive.

These are some examples out of many.

Real people from Deposit Photo had a second human look and made immediate corrections with a nice letter of excuse.

Adobe does not. They never will give any answer. The algorithm took over the control.
