Protect images on your site | Scene7

Issue

Any user can right-click our web page images and save them. Does Scene7 have any feature to prevent people from downloading our images?

Solution

Scene7 does not have any built-in functionality to prevent people from downloading images from your website. However, there are some web programming techniques that your web developer can use.

Even so, there is always a way for users to get your images. If you don't want your images reused, consider watermarking them with Digimarc or branding them with your company logo (using Scene7 templates).

Some websites choose to disable right-click, or serve the images as SWF files or use other methods. However, a user's browser has already downloaded the content, so the various techniques don't stop a determined person. They can get the images from the browser cache, or screenshot the page or view the source code. See here for more information: http://javascript.about.com/library/blnoright.htm
