👉 Permission research involves gathering and analyzing information about the rights, restrictions, and requirements necessary to use someone else's intellectual property, such as images, text, music, or data, for specific purposes. This process typically includes identifying the creator or copyright holder, understanding their stated permissions, and determining any legal or ethical boundaries that must be adhered to. Researchers may consult official databases, contact copyright offices, or review licensing agreements to ensure compliance with laws like copyright, fair use, or Creative Commons licenses. The goal is to avoid infringement and facilitate lawful use, whether for academic, commercial, or personal projects.
