1. Platform Artists — Consent & Authorization
All artists registered on the Street Art Miami platform ("Platform Artists") have profiles created from content provided directly by the artists themselves or their authorized representatives.
How Content Is Obtained
- •Direct upload by the artist: Photos, artworks, and information were uploaded directly by the artist through their dashboard on the platform.
- •Submission via document (PDF/email): Some artists submitted their portfolio and information via digital document (PDF) or electronic correspondence directly to the platform manager, authorizing publication.
- •Express authorization: In all cases, the artist or their authorized representative granted express permission for the use of content on the Street Art Miami platform.
By providing content to the platform, the artist grants Street Art Miami a non-exclusive, royalty-free, and revocable license to display, reproduce, and promote the artworks and images provided exclusively within the context of the platform and its cultural promotion activities. This license does not transfer copyright or intellectual property rights over the works.
The artist declares and warrants that they are the owner or hold legitimate authorization over all content provided, including image rights (right of publicity as per Art. 5, X of the Brazilian Federal Constitution and Art. 20 of the Civil Code), copyrights, and any third-party rights that may apply to the works.
