Can others use photos from Facebook ok their own website without permission? - L - 02-19-2014 05:43 PM

I just was randomly googling my name as you do and I came across a website about family trees with my name and photos on it. The person who runs the website got the photos off Facebook (which I thought was as private as I could get it) that I didn't know or give permission for them to use. Are they allowed to use personal photos from Facebook without permission for their own use?

if you're a profeesional photographer or film maker and you have the copy rights of the data , it's illegal to anyone use that without your consent. but when they are some random shots we upload to social networking sites with out changng the privacy options , and open to public to view it's doesn't matter. If you want that person remove those pics, message that owner or report to the content hoster.
