Violation Description:
Burning Man is a private event. Entry to the event is limited to participants
that have purchased tickets through the Burning Man website or at limited resale
outlets. Each ticket specifies the terms and conditions of attending the event.
One of these terms and conditions limits the use of photographs taken at the
event, and bans any commercial use of photographs without prior permission. By
entering the event gate, a photographer agrees to these terms and conditions.
Terms and conditions of entry are a legally binding agreement.
As part of the same terms and conditions, participants appoint Burning Man as their
representative, acting on their behalf to protect their intellectual property
and privacy rights.
FAIRFAXUNDERGROUND.COM currently hosts photographic images taken at the Burning
Man event. We request this DMCA action as the legally appointed representatives
of the original photographer(s) copyrights.
The offending material may be found at:
http://www.fairfaxunderground.com/forum/read/40/532295/532295.html#msg-532295
http://www.fairfaxunderground.com/forum/file.php?40,file=30859,filename=Sunflower-Girl.jpg
However, the violations may not be limited to those pages. All offending material must be
removed in order to comply with this DMCA request, regardless of whether it is specifically
named in this request.
-- end DMCA complaint --
Only the one specific image has been removed. There is no way to know for sure whether the other pictures taken were actually from the Burning Man festival, thus extending copyright claims.
