We recommend the following guidelines when using images from public domain sites:

• By downloading images from the Internet and reusing them to suit your needs, you assume all risk and responsibility that you may incur from using those images
• If you’re using stock images with people, be aware that model releases may not have been obtained from those depicted
• It is wise to avoid using photos that have any identifiable brands or logos present as this can create issues with the brand/company being depicted
• When using a public domain image, try to find out the original source and verify that the image is free to use whenever possible
• Though it is not required by law to cite the source of a public domain image, it is polite and users are encouraged to do so.
