Requesting permission

Identify the exact page, passage, image or dataset field you want to use and explain the proposed format, audience, territory, duration and commercial context. Permission can only cover material controlled by London Balcony Hotels; third-party assets may require separate permission from their rights holder.

  • Include the exact source URL.
  • Describe any planned edits or cropping.
  • State whether the use is commercial.
  • Allow time for provenance and third-party rights to be checked.

Initial response workflow

A report should be logged, acknowledged, checked against the provenance and asset-rights records, and escalated where ownership or licensing is contested. Disputed media can be placed on hold or replaced with a placeholder while the evidence is reviewed.

  • Preserve the original page and asset record.
  • Avoid admitting liability before review.
  • Record the decision and any correction, restriction or removal.
  • Update public credits and review dates when necessary.

False or incomplete reports

Incomplete reports may delay verification. Deliberately false statements can harm rights holders and publishers; the final wording and evidence requirements need solicitor review.

Report suspected infringement

Send a focused report containing the page URL, the exact material at issue, documents showing the original work or licence, your relationship to the rights holder, and the action requested. Do not send identity documents, payment details or booking information.

  • Your name or organisation and a reply address.
  • The London Balcony Hotels URL and a precise description of the material.
  • The original source, ownership or licensing basis you rely on.
  • A good-faith explanation of why the use should be reviewed.
  • Whether you request attribution correction, temporary restriction or removal.

Legal review required: the validated public rights mailbox is not configured. Supply and test the owner-approved value before treating this workflow as operational.
