Did a few renders regarding the soccer world cup. Don't understand why they got rejected. As reason for all three there is copyright infringement stated.

Anybody got an idea wtf the problem is? Maybe the pattern of the ball?

Hi,

I think the reflection in the golden parts of football are parts of the official FIFA logo and this is protected.

Furthermore Fifa has protected terms such as:

2018 FIFA World Cup Russia? ™

FIFA Football Weltmeisterschaft™,

COPA 2018™,

COPA MUNDIAL 2018™,

RUSIA 2018™,

RUSSIA 2018™,

WM 2018™, S

SPIELORT+ name and 2018 for each venue (e.g. Moscow 2018) and more.

These should never be used in the title or keywords of the image.

The FIFA is very resolute in protecting its trademark rights. So you should be very careful about uploading pictures.

Greets,

Seems like it's my keywords then. I have actually been careful with selecting these, but didn't expect "Russia 2018" and such to be proteced. Thank you!
