LICENSING

Clarity is part of permission.

Rights are precise. The license should be too. AIA Talent Exchange helps each project define what is allowed, what requires approval, and what remains prohibited.

LICENSING QUESTIONS

Rights begin with specific answers.

The talent or authorized rights holder controls the identity. AIA Talent Exchange is designed to support permissions, approvals, licensing, tracking, and compensation—not to take ownership of a person’s identity.

No. Participation does not guarantee project placement, income, or any specific opportunity. Projects, compensation, timing, and licensing terms vary.

No. Buyers must secure the required permissions and agreements before an authorized use is activated. Project details and rights must be reviewed for each use.

Only when AI training is explicitly reviewed and authorized. Training permissions may be prohibited, limited to a defined purpose, or governed by a separate agreement.
