Ready to
OPT OUT?

We think it’s time you had a simple and quick way to prohibit the use of your work for AI. With Opt Out Now! we present a new standard.

Opt Out Now!

Opt Out Now! is an initiative by the Federatie Beeldrechten, a partnership between collective management organisation Pictoright, professional associations and unions of designers, illustrators, photographers, photojournalists and visual artists. Within the Federatie, they work together to improve the position of these creators where it concerns copyright.
