Intellectual Property and Copyright Policy

Updated about 1 year ago.

We don't want to get mired in too many rules and regulations, but its necessary that we address the topic of copyright and intellectual property. So here's our plain language IP and Copyright Policy.

We respect the intellectual property rights of others, and we ask that you do the same. When you contribute text or photos to the site, please make sure that it is your own creation or matter in the public domain.

Please contact us, if you believe you have found a user infringing copyright on the site.

We reserve the right to disable or terminate repeat offenders.
