links to our AdobeStock images

[MbtF Vidéos]

Hi,

Can we put links to our AdobeStock images, from a website or YouTube channel.

I think so but but I prefer to ask again.

For example:

https://stock.adobe.com/fr/search/video?filters%5Bcontent_type%3Avideo%5D=1&k=église+saint+Paul+pari...

Cordialement

Yes. You can link what you want. The content is still yours, and you are allowed to promote your content as you want.

The Contributor agreement you signed with Adobe clearly states that you retain copyright and are offering the images on a non-exclusive basis. You can promote your Adobe Stock portfolio any way you want...

Yes, but the link you provided is a search result. Not your profile. The media belongs to several contributors. You cannot link their property if you use them commercially.

Thank you for your answers, but it’s not very clear to me.

I don’t understand what that means exactly.

I will try to clarify my question :

1- I created a youtube cha ine.

2- On this channel I download the same videos as my Adobe Stock account ( with a lower resolution of course )

3- With each video I put a link to open the same video directly in Adobe Stock like this example :

https://stock.adobe.com/fr/search/video?filters%5Bcontent_type%3Avideo%5D=1&k=église+saint+Paul+pari...

Is this allowed by Adobe Stock?

Yes!

I think what @RALPH_L means is that filtered search results are not specific enough.  Cite your actual asset by it's ID so there is no confusion with other contributor's assets.

I agree to that! https://community.adobe.com/t5/stock-contributors-discussions/links-to-our-adobestock-images/m-p/135...

The link points to his video:

However, I would use this URL:

I have read an expereince for a user who promoted his work on social media page, they bought his work, then got his account blocked for that (irregular sales activity) so i don't think it's safe.

You should link that thread. 

This is what happens:

Someone contacts you, promising to buy your assets for a retro commission. They buy massively your assets, probably with a stolen credit card. Your sales increse from 5 sales per month to 100 or more sales. All the buys are from the same account. Both accounts get blocked. Adobe investigates. 

If you sales increase slowly, and the buyers are diverse, there will be no red flag comming up. 

Personally, I do not see an advantage in promoting my assets somewhere else, as people wanting to use my assets and see them somewhere else, contact me there.

No problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_2jsAAE-mE&t

Not sure what language is that, but he answered me in comments.

I absolutely agree on what you said btw, but in my case as i've done none of that, AS is missing the point where a user may download a sequence of files from a single account if its a unique content (with a nature of sequence or a theme), and may also donwload it quickly if  his plan is about to expire soon, which made it worse.
Still waiting for investegation results anyway.
