Copyright and Ownership
« on: January 02, 2014, 12:43:30 PM »
The following wording has been created from similar text found on various other Forum like websites where people are contributing content and their images and from the Copyright Australia website(link below).

The purpose of this is to help people understand to protect their images and posts that are subject to copyright, not all content is, and encourage people who wish to use your content elsewhere to ask for your permission first. The watermark on the images and this wording is not an attempt by Mokes Inc. to make any claim to copyright ownership on any of your contributions but does help identify where images have originated from. The wording about limited license is there to help retain the readability of the Forum into the future and not have text and posts missing in past discussions.


You are responsible for abiding by the copyright and ownership laws of Australia and Internationally for any content that you bring to or take from your use of the Mokes Inc. Forum. Mokes Inc. and its representatives will not be held liable for your actions or inaction and where obvious we will take practical steps to deter and remove breaches of the law however we cannot police every item and thus it is your responsibility.

Your use of the Mokes Inc. Forum in regards to content and images you create that is covered by Copyright or ownership laws extends to provide a limited license or permission for Mokes Inc. and its members to copy, quote, cut and paste or be restored within the confines of this Forum to retain the usability of the Forum.
This permission does not extend to providing permission for the others to use your content outside of this site and they will have to contact you to obtain such permission. Images will be watermarked for use on this site only and you will need to supply any requests to use your image with an image not taken from this site.

Further information regarding the basis of this policy can be found on this website, http://www.copyright.org.au/
