Getty Images Letter Forum / Letter rec'd by a local vender with my logo on site

« on: March 27, 2013, 05:48:03 PM »

I rec'd a frantic call from a local retail pet store that supports my 501/c/3 Dog Rescue.  He received the Getty letter and it's demanding $875 due to my logo on his site.  One of my volunteers had contacted a designer through Etsy in 2009 and paid for this to be done.  While it's the same photo provided by Getty, we have no idea where the designer got it.  I do have 2 copies of the logo that we have used on our website, brochures, cafepress items, etc. and have provided it to vendors in locally printed items.

While the photo of the dog, it is "turned" facing opposite direction.  What can I do to help this vendor because of the support he has given our rescue?

Thank you in advance...Peggy, www.luvachinrescue.org
