Starting from version 2023.1, IPTC Photo Metadata Standard includes specialized fields to communicate permissions regarding data mining and the use of images for AI/ML training.
With Macula, you can easily manage these permissions, they will always be clearly stated for your images shared online:
When sharing the image, Macula automatically sets the default option to Prohibited, indicated by the appropriate icon. You can also set the preferred option yourself, selecting from the drop-down list (see the section below for all available options).
The pickaxe icon is a quick way to signal the permissions to everyone who visits your UniLink Preview page. Clicking on this icon reveals additional information.
