Using photography for e-learning materials (exterior shots including people) may have legal implications. Is there an "advice" web address that could help?

The Technical Advisory Service for Images (TASI) provides advice and guidance on the creation and use of digital image collections in learning, teaching and research. Included on their website is a section that deals with Copyright and Data Protection and in relation to this specific JISCask query, their website does state that:

“If your image includes recognisable images of living people, you should seek permission before making these images available .... In addition to the ethical reasons for doing so, there is now a legal requirement in the 1998 Data Protection Act (DPA). This governs the collection, storage and use of 'personal data', which is anything that relates to a living individual who can be identified from that information.”

In addition to TASI, JISCLegal is the authority on all things to do with using ICT for learning and teaching and has extensive sections on both Copyright and Data Protection. Go to the section with their Webcasts for some particularly user friendly videos on both topics.
