    They are free to use although you would need to properly quote them not to have your site penalised as a site with no original material. It is better to write about the release on your website and provide an external link to the press release.

    Press Release content are originated in the brand website and if will be use in other sites the source must be credited and take some reviews on the article.

    Yes you can use the press release of a certain website but you need to acknowledged the company for the press release information.
