Before any upload, confirm that you created the design or media or have permission for the intended use. Remove unrelated personal details, identify anyone shown only with appropriate consent, and prepare a useful description, caption, or transcript. No upload exists on this page.
A definition-only pre-upload guide for creation or permission, consent for identifiable people, minimum necessary personal information, accessible context, correction, and withdrawal.
What this guide covers
- Confirm the source, intended use, rights, and consent.
- Remove private details and prepare accessible context.
- Pause for human legal, privacy, accessibility, and editorial review.
This page explains a boundary; it accepts no media
Definition only · No community feature
Nothing here authenticates, captures, uploads, stores, scans, transcribes, calls a provider, moderates, notifies, or publishes. The checklist cannot clear copyright, privacy, publicity, contract, design, trademark, consent, or other case-specific rights.
A future media candidate would need all three
Rights and purpose
Creator, owner or permission source, exact intended use, scope, limits, and whether the material is a reference, concept, process view, or completed piece.
People and privacy
Appropriate consent for identifiable people, a privacy-safe crop, removal of names, messages, locations, addresses, orders, account details, and unnecessary metadata.
Accessible context and control
Useful text alternative, caption or transcript as applicable, accurate claim labels, correction path, consent withdrawal, and deletion-request explanation.
Review before any future upload
- 1 — Record the source
Name who created the design or media, who owns relevant rights, how permission was received, and what use it covers.
- 2 — Reduce the content
Keep only what the approved story or design discussion needs and remove unrelated people, text, places, files, and identifiers.
- 3 — Make the meaning available
Prepare an accurate text alternative, caption, or transcript that explains the useful information without adding unsupported claims.
- 4 — Wait for human review
Legal, privacy, accessibility, editorial, safety, claim, and publication review must finish before any future public use.
Uploaded design and customer-media questions
Can I upload a design or photo here?
No. This page has no capture, upload, storage, provider, moderation, notification, or publication feature.
Does crediting the creator replace permission?
No. Credit and permission are different questions, and the intended use may also involve consent, privacy, publicity, contract, design, or trademark rights.
Does alt text make media ready to publish?
No. A useful text alternative supports access, but rights, consent, privacy, factual accuracy, moderation, claims, correction, withdrawal, and publication still need review.
