Question: You want to use a picture of a celebrity in your Google Play store listing. Which of the following is a recommended best practice for the use of pictures of public figures or celebrities?
- You can use professional photos of public figures or celebrities with written and documented permission.
- You can use professional images of well-known people as long as they are considered famous.
- You can use images of celebrities if the images are taken from an existing website.
- You can use professional images of famous people as long as you do not impersonate them.
Explanation
Google Play’s Intellectual Property policy requires authorization before using protected third-party content in a store listing. Celebrity images can involve copyright, publicity rights, or other ownership restrictions. Documented permission helps verify that the asset is legally licensed for use. The store listing must not imply endorsement, affiliation, or impersonation unless those rights are granted.
Why the other options are incorrect
Famous status Public recognition does not remove copyright or publicity-right restrictions.
Existing website Images found online are still protected unless usage rights are granted.
No impersonation Avoiding impersonation does not replace documented permission to use the image.
