We live in an online world. We got to websites and check their reviews. If we like them, we might hire this person or but from that store. But, is it ok to just copy paste people’s names and share their opinions? Keep reading.
If you are asking the person to leave a voluntary comment on your socials, it is ok, because it is their name writing and they know that post will remain. Same goes when you post a review and all you do is click.
But if the review is somehow personal, meaning they are sending it over the email to, you should be asking them a release to be signed, as that email does not mean that they are really allowing you to use their name, pic, etc.
