Company selling my work

Hello. I've been creating images for Adobe Stock for half a year now and recently discovered some company that uses my work to print it and then sell it. The thing is, they use lots of my images I had NOT sold even once. The account selling my work stands by the same name I have here on Adobe - "Fernweh Collector". My question is - Is it in any way right for them to do what they do and if not, what can I do in this situation?

Thank you in advance

The API partner arrangement is mentioned in the Contributor Agreement. If and when the partner sells your image, you receive a royalty just as if they had licensed it in the Adobe Stock site.

You should be grateful for the added publicity.  P. T. Barnum famously said, "Any kind of publicity is good publicity as long as they spell your name right."

      If it is a print on-demand company, they are probably a partner to Adobe. That is described on the contributor pages. The user buys a print, they buy the asset and print it. They are accessing the Adobe database via the API, so they really can show on their site all of Adobe stock.

       

      What is the name of that company?

      The name is Redro. It seems like they sell stock stuff on massive scale. Can I be sure in any way that I'm going to get my royalty if they make sales?
