Can I use BuzzFeed content on my website or social media?

Asked 2 years ago
BuzzFeed content is typically protected by copyright, which means that using it on your website or social media without permission could potentially infringe on those rights. To ensure you are not violating copyright laws, it is important to review the specific terms of use associated with the content you wish to utilize. BuzzFeed offers a wide variety of articles, videos, and listicles, and each type of content may have different usage guidelines. For instance, some content may be shareable through embedding, while other pieces might require explicit permission for use. Additionally, sharing links to BuzzFeed articles or videos on social media is generally permitted as long as you are directing users to the original source, but you must avoid republishing the original content itself. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, you can look for any licensing guidelines or contact information on the BuzzFeed website. This will help clarify what is permissible regarding their content and ensure you are following their guidelines appropriately.
