It's in the usage... If you use it in an exploitive way you're gonna get nailed BAD. Arco Media is out $5 million for something similar. It is beyond me how you are offering to sell rights to likeness and publicity of complete strangers to third parties.

And if you don't have bankroll (at least 6 figures) stashed away to defend against this you're doing your customers a disservice (they aren't immune to lawsuit due to your work). Not only that, but if you can't defend a big lawsuit you're going to tear down the whole world for everyone. All this over a couple hundred bucks?

I strongly advise you to consult your company's lawyer before making this purchase. By using this content you are putting yourself at serious risk (see arco case) and it's WAY more risk than return unless you know what you're doing with it. Good luck.
