The hosting company responded promptly with a "we got your e-mail" reply and then this morning with a note that said their client purchased the images from123rf and was using them appropriately.

I replied back to the hosting company with details of the license and said that they could not offer the images for download as part of that license, pointing them at 123rf's license terms online. I also wrote to 123rf support with copies of the DMCA notice and correspondence asking them to contact the client to advise them that they can't do this.

There are other stock images on that site that I recognize, so 123rf needs to get on their case to stop this for all the uses, not just mine.

As an aside, when I looked over 123rf's license I didn't see anything about a maximum size for web display even though it contains prohibitions against downloading and redistribution. That seems like a major oversight (even if people break the rules, it's good to have the rules in place so you can point out that they've broken them if you do catch them at it!)

I've added that link to my collection in my Copyright & IP bookmarks folder - thanks.

I'll post here if/when I get a response from 123rf

i think there is no license in any site that allow u to redistribute...

That's true, but without a limitation on what size you can display on a web page, and without a requirement to disable Save As Image in the browser, you don't have to explicitly offer distribution (although this web site does) in order for that to be the effect.

The larger of my two monitors is 2560 x 1440. If a web site wanted to offer full screen displays of unmodified stock images, that's a fast way to make the image available for anyone who wants it. Ethical companies won't do it either way, but the limitations on screen size in most of the agencies' licenses is to avoid effective redistribution when "displaying" the image on a site

Here's a link to the Agoda agreement, and the only thing I see that might provide a way to enlist their help in getting this content down is in the section on Indemnification

https://partners.agoda.com/en-us/agreement.html

Most of this is about how the affiliate won't try to cheat Agoda or mimic its web site, but in section 7.1 on Indemnification, there is this"

(the affiliate will hold Agoda harmless from) "(ii)   any claim from any third party based on any (alleged) infringement of the third party's Intellectual Property Right by the Affiliate. "

If I claim that GetInTravel is infringing my copyright by violating the 123rf license and make the claim against Agoda too, GetInTravel has to cover their costs.

I just want the large images down. It seems to me that GetInTravel is trying to make affiliate revenue by putting some very thin content around wallpaper size free redistribution of stock images.

Does anyone else see anything in the Agoda agreement that GetInTravel might be doing that it shouldn't?

Later in the day I did get something from 123RF support. I don't think - from what they wrote - that they're planning to do anything about other people's images, so if you see anything of yours there you'll need to do your own DMCA notice.

"Thank you for informing us in regards to the stolen image.
Please note that we have checked the image on the website and it will take some times for them to totally remove from the website.
We really appreciate your concern and co-operation on the matter.

We do apologize for inconvenience caused.
