At CrozNest, we respect intellectual property rights. We also believe in the value of education, criticism, review, and commentary – especially when it comes to helping hairdressers and salon owners stay ahead of trends.

This page explains how we use images on our blog and website, and what to do if you believe your work has been used without proper permission.

Our Commitment to Fair Use

We sometimes use third-party images on our blog, trend reports, and social media content to:

• Illustrate hair and fashion trends

• Provide educational commentary

• Review collections, techniques, or seasonal styles

• Report on fashion week looks and industry developments

We believe this use falls under “fair dealing” as defined in the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 (UK law).

What Is Fair Dealing?

Under UK copyright law, fair dealing allows limited use of copyrighted material without permission from the owner for specific purposes, including:

We always aim to use images in a way that is transformative (adding new meaning or commentary) and not detrimental to the original work’s commercial value.

What We Do to Respect Copyright

We take reasonable steps to ensure we use images responsibly:

✅ We try to use images that are:

• In the public domain

• Licensed under Creative Commons (with attribution where required)

• Commissioned or created by CrozNest (our own photography and video)

✅ We provide attribution whenever we know the original source

✅ We use images only to illustrate and enhance educational or editorial content

✅ We do not claim ownership of third-party images

---

What We Do NOT Do

❌ We do not use copyrighted images for commercial resale

❌ We do not use images in a way that directly competes with the original work

❌ We do not intentionally infringe on any creator’s rights

Our Content Packs – Original Work

Important distinction:

The images and videos in our paid content packs (Formidable, Conqueror, Endeavour, etc.) are original creations or licensed specifically for resale.

When you purchase a CrozNest content pack, you are getting 100% cleared, original, or properly licensed assets. These are not subject to fair dealing – they are our intellectual property (or used with full permission).

See our Terms & Conditions for details on how you may use purchased content packs.
