Abstract

The right to one’s image in an information society This article is focused on selected aspects of the right to one’s image. The authors would like to contribute to the ongoing discussion on the legal nature of the right to one’s image. In our opinion, it is not adequate to meet the requirements presented by an information society. Concepts derived from analog techniques are inadequate to meet the requirements of the digital field. The commercialisation of images also means that rights of a personal nature (moral rights) as set by the law are treated as economic ones, which is accepted partially by the legal doctrine and recognized in jurisprudence. The conducted research is supported by the critical analysis of binding legal regulations (Articles 81 and 83 of the Act on Copyright and Related Rights) and followed by de lege ferenda proposals.
