Creative work, with rights in mind.

1. What appears in GospelCO content

GospelCO may publish original creative work, client-approved work, licensed stock assets, open-source assets, software/interface mockups, AI-generated or AI-assisted imagery/video/audio, client-supplied material and commentary/reference examples. The nature and permissions of each asset depend on the actual item and how it is used.

Not every image or asset on a page is necessarily owned by GospelCO. Third-party trademarks, photographs, recordings, designs, fonts, stock assets, software and other rights remain with their respective owners unless a transfer or licence says otherwise.

2. Third-party images, sports posters and reference material

Photographs, football/sports images, club crests, league marks, player likenesses, album art, movie/game characters, screenshots and other online material may be protected by copyright, trade mark, image/personality, contract or platform rules. Finding an image through Google, Pinterest, Instagram or another site does not mean it is free to reuse.

Before using third-party material in a public post, portfolio, client job, advert or promotional asset, GospelCO should establish a suitable licence, permission or other defensible legal basis and preserve a record. A non-commercial purpose, a link to the source, giving credit, or calling something “fan art” does not by itself grant permission. If rights cannot be confirmed, the safer course is not to publish the asset or to replace it with original material.

When GospelCO creates unofficial concept art referencing a real brand, team, athlete or event, it must not imply that the work is official, commissioned, endorsed or affiliated. This statement does not cure an otherwise infringing or misleading use.

3. AI-generated and AI-assisted images, video, text and audio

GospelCO may use AI tools to help generate, transform or refine creative elements including backgrounds, mockups, characters, product scenes, animation, scripts, synthetic voice and editing. AI-assisted output may be combined with human art direction, design, compositing, editing, typography, sound design and quality review.

• Rights in AI outputs, exclusivity and availability of copyright protection can depend on applicable law, tool terms, the input material and the amount/nature of human contribution. GospelCO does not promise universal exclusivity or guaranteed copyright registration for every AI output.
• AI outputs can resemble existing works or generate inaccurate text, products, people or details. Material used for a commercial project must be reviewed and checked for claims, rights and suitability before publication.
• GospelCO will not knowingly create non-consensual sexual imagery, deceptive impersonation, fraudulent documents, fake endorsements or materially misleading deepfakes.
• Clients who supply a real person’s image, voice or likeness must have the authority and informed permission needed for the requested use, including synthetic manipulation or voice cloning where applicable.
• AI service terms can vary between free, paid, business and enterprise plans and may change. Before relying on a tool for commercial output, check the current terms, prohibited uses, retention settings and any limits affecting client usage.

Platforms may require AI/synthetic-media labels for particular content. For example, YouTube requires disclosure for certain realistic altered/synthetic content, including realistic scenes that did not happen or a real person appearing to do/say something they did not. Meta also provides AI-related labels for some content and ads. Requirements depend on the platform and content; uploaders must use the native disclosure controls where required. See the YouTube disclosure guidance and Meta’s AI labelling approach.

4. Stock media, fonts, templates, music, voice and code

Stock photos/video/audio, music tracks, sound effects, fonts, icons, mockups, themes, plugins, code libraries and software may be subject to separate licences. Licences may restrict advertising, broadcast, merchandise, resale, template redistribution, source-file delivery, client transfer, seats, territories or duration. A client must not assume that receiving a final design transfers ownership of every embedded asset.

GospelCO should keep a basic asset record for externally sourced materials: asset name, creator/provider, source URL, licence tier, purchase/permission evidence, permitted use, attribution text if required, and renewal/expiry date if any. Use the licence terms that applied when the asset was acquired and re-check when scope changes. Where applicable, credits should follow the licence; where attribution is not required, do not imply that adding a credit is a substitute for compliance.

5. Client-supplied assets and approvals

Clients are responsible for ensuring they have permission to provide and use their logos, photos, footage, voice samples, music, fonts, customer reviews, testimonials, product images, likenesses and other supplied content. Clients must disclose relevant restrictions, required attributions, license expiry dates, embargoes, usage territories and any “no AI” instruction before work begins.

Client approval of a final design does not eliminate an underlying third-party rights issue. If a supplied asset is later found to lack required permission, GospelCO may pause publication or replace/remove it while the parties determine a lawful path forward.

6. Concept work, portfolio pieces and results

Speculative projects, redesign concepts, fan art, visual experiments and fictional campaign mockups should be clearly identified as concepts or unofficial work. They must not be described as client commissions, official campaigns, partnerships or successful commercial results unless that is accurate and authorised. Brand names and marks displayed in concept work remain the property of their respective owners.

Case studies and testimonials should represent work actually done and outcomes that can be supported. Illustrative metrics, placeholder screenshots and AI-generated mockups must not be passed off as genuine analytics, real client results or a real operating product.

7. Advertising and factual claims

For client ads, websites and promotional designs, the client must provide and approve accurate information on product features, price, stock, results, testimonials, discounts, availability, qualifications and any regulated claims. GospelCO may ask for supporting evidence or refuse a claim that appears misleading, unsafe or prohibited. Creative production does not constitute legal, medical, financial, regulatory or trademark clearance unless a separate professional review is expressly scoped.

8. Rights-holder requests and corrections

If you believe material on the GospelCO website or an official GospelCO post infringes your rights or credits you incorrectly, email gospelgfxdesigns@gmail.com with the subject “Rights or Credit Request”. Include the URL or post link, identify the work and the material in question, explain your rights or requested correction, provide a reliable contact method and attach/identify any relevant licence or ownership evidence you are comfortable sharing.

GospelCO will review the request, may ask for reasonable clarification, and where appropriate may correct credit, replace or remove the material while the matter is assessed. Sending a request does not automatically establish infringement or guarantee a particular legal outcome. Do not include unnecessary sensitive personal data in the message.

9. External sites and limits of this notice
