Copyright Issues with images in Logos?

I'm putting together a sermon series through Genesis and am wanting to use a few of the maps in the Logos map set. I can't find anything anywhere that says whether this is a copyright issue or not if I want to put them on a PowerPoint or something.

Any ideas?

You are free to use them that way. Only if you tried to sell (or broadcast) them somehow would you run into trouble.

I'm the av technician for my church, my pastor used a map that has the Faithlife copyright in the corner. we post the videos to our website along with study notes. I'm guessing we don't have permission to use the map in that way?

all of the studies we have posted are free, we don't make money on that content.

Question to JT. My friend, does that mean that if your worship services are televised, you would violating the copyright by using Logos maps or images? Also, what if your services are on the internet? Haven't thought about that.

I refer to the "(or broadcast)" reference in JT's statement. Many churches now are broadcasting services over the internet because of Covid 19.

In copyrights that one makes it available for free or for sale is seen as the same things as the copyright owner does not get to make a sale because of the actions of some other.

Only if you tried to sell (or broadcast) them somehow would you run into trouble.

As said in other posts remember that streaming and posting on the internet is broadcasting [You Tube, Facebook, etc.]

I may be the only one who feels this way, but I am more confused after reading the various posts.

You aren't kidding my friend! [:)]

If it were me, I would contact FL directly. However, the screenshot Disciple posted seems to indicate that if a live, in person class session is recorded and posted for free, it would be allowable.

It sounded that way to me, also. I do know lots of churches are posting services for free through Facebook life and Youtube. You are right. It seems wise of contact FL.

I think it is unlikely that someone seeing a picture or map while watching a sermon would keep them from buying a FL resource. They would not have the map, unless they took a screenshot of it. That might happen, but it strikes me as very unlikely.
