Licensing

[edit]

The image is composed of a textual part and a photograph, neither of which are copyrightable, and the composition of the two contains no creative input.

Public domain
The depicted text is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain because it is not a “literary work” or other protected type in sense of the local copyright law. Facts, data, and unoriginal information which is common property without sufficiently creative authorship in a general typeface or basic handwriting, and simple geometric shapes are not protected by copyright. This tag does not generally apply to all images of texts. Particular countries can have different legal definition of the “literary work” as the subject of copyright and different courts' interpretation practices. Some countries protect almost every written work, while other countries protect distinctively artistic or scientific texts and databases only. Extent of creativeness, function and length of the text can be relevant. The copyright protection can be limited to the literary form – the included information itself can be excluded from protection.
This file is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain because it is a legally valid French identity photograph. It is therefore compliant with strict guidelines on composition, lighting etc. that precludes any of the intellectual input necessary under French law to yield a copyright. This holds true whether the photograph was created by a photo booth or with the intervention of a human operator.
