8.Copyright
Use of this website constitutes agreement to abide by the copyright policies of this website and the copyright laws of the United States of America. Please read the copyright statement before using the website.
Copyright refers to the exclusive right of the makers of a creative work to sell, show, or otherwise use the work they create. Unless they sell or give permission to do so, no one else may use or reproduce the work.
ALL creative works are copyrighted AUTOMATICALLY immediately upon creation. The creator does not have to mark the work with any symbols or register it with the government.
Copyright is property and when the creator dies, if he or she still has the copyright, the heirs inherit the right. Just because someone is dead or unavailable does not mean the work can be used without permission. Some, but not all, works created before 1922 are not copyrighted, but it is not safe to assume that a particular older work is free to be used without researching for any owner.
This applies not only to “for-profit” use but also for any public use, including educational or non-profit use. You cannot legally copy and use another’s work for school or church classes, for example, without permission.
You can use the work for personal use – usually this is described as “one-copy” on web policies, and this is usually a safe statement, however the number of copies is immaterial- it is the intent that matters.
You can use short excepts for quotes or make a parody.
Otherwise—
COPYING SOMETHING WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM A WEBSITE ONTO YOUR WEBSITE, BLOG, PERSONAL PAGE ETC. IS A VIOLATION OF COPYRIGHT LAW. There are substantial financial penalties for violating copyright law, enough so that it might be worth someone’s while to hire a lawyer and go after you.
All material on www.youandmemagazine.com (“the website” or “the magazine”) is copyrighted and may not be used without permission. The actual site, and some of the content is copyrighted to AleCat LLC. The articles, pictures and some other material are copyrighted to their creators.
To use material on the site, contact the poster or the creator/author/artist directly for permission. The website cannot negotiate permission for you.
The website does not knowingly use copyrighted material without permission. If you see something that you feel is being used without permission contact the website at info@youandmemagazine.com. If the status of the item is unclear we will remove it until the situation is clarified. If copyrighted material has inadvertently been placed on the site, it will be removed as soon as possible.
The website is not liable for damages that may be incurred, either direct or indirect from the posting of copyrighted material on the website without permission.
