Abstract
A system for providing permissioned images in media transactions is described. The system processes images in an image set for a media transaction to identify the image owner and other persons depicted in the image and determines use permissions for the images. Various images in the image set are processed to remove or anonymize various persons in order to meet use conditions. The processed images are compiled and provided to an entity requesting the image set.

A method for permissioned image compilation comprising:
- receiving an image data request from a requesting entity, wherein the image data request comprises content conditions specifying one or more types of requested image data and an intended use for the requested image data;
- selecting, from an image database, a preliminary set of image data, wherein the preliminary set of image data is selected based on the one or more types of requested image data and the intended use for the requested image data;
- determining one or more image use permissions for the preliminary set of image data;
- altering one or more images in the preliminary set of image data based on the one or more image use permissions to produce a permissioned set of image data,
- wherein the permission set of image data comprises a plurality of permissioned images,
- wherein each permissioned image of the plurality of permissioned images comprises an image use permission from an image owner entity and a personal likeness use permission from each identified person in the permissioned image,
- wherein the image owner entity comprises a copyright owner for a respective image of the plurality of permissioned images,
- wherein a personal likeness use permission for an identified person of the each identified person comprises a permission to use a depiction of the identified person in the permissioned set of image data, and
- wherein the image owner entity comprises a different entity from at least one identified person in the permissioned image;
- compiling a final set of image data from the permissioned set of image data and from the preliminary set of image data based on the one or more image use permissions;
- and
- providing the final set of image data to the requesting entity.

- selecting, from an image database and based on the image data request, a preliminary set of image data, wherein the preliminary set of image data is selected based on the one or more types of requested image data and the intended use for the requested image data;
- determining one or more image use permissions for the preliminary set of image data;
- altering one or more images in the preliminary set of image data based on the one or more image use permissions to produce a permissioned set of image data,
- wherein the permission set of image data comprises a plurality of permissioned images,
- wherein each permissioned image of the plurality of permissioned images comprises an image use permission from an image owner entity and a personal likeness use permission from each identified person in the permissioned image,
- wherein the image owner entity comprises a copyright owner for a respective image of the plurality of permissioned images,

- receiving an image data request from a requesting entity, wherein the image data request comprises content conditions specifying one or more types of requested image data and an intended use for the requested image data;
- selecting, from an image database and based on the image data request, a preliminary set of image data, wherein the preliminary set of image data is selected based on the one or more types of requested image data and the intended use for the requested image data;
- determining one or more image use permissions for the preliminary set of image data;
- altering one or more images in the preliminary set of image data based on the one or more image use permissions to produce a permissioned set of image data,
- wherein the permission set of image data comprises a plurality of permissioned images,
- wherein each permissioned image of the plurality of permissioned images comprises an image use permission from an image owner entity and a personal likeness use permission from each identified person in the permissioned image,
- wherein the image owner entity comprises a copyright owner for a respective image of the plurality of permissioned images,
- wherein a personal likeness use permission for an identified person of the each identified person comprises a permission to use a depiction of the identified person in the permissioned set of image data, and
- wherein the image owner entity comprises a different entity from at least one identified person in the permissioned image;
