Copyright Intellectual Property
The term “copyright” protects rights to the intellectual property that Paul Trummel (Nmesis) and other authors have created and published online in Contra Cabal. It includes text, photographs, cartoons, and illustrations. It protects them against unauthorized use of their work and entitles them to benefit from that work.
The term “moral rights” refers to attribution (bylines, credits). British law protects authors and artists from derogatory treatment of, or alterations to, original material in any way that prejudices them or their reputations. This includes editing in any way that distorts the original meaning of the work or deliberately introduces mistakes into it.
No person or organization may use or reproduce in any form any part of Contra Cabal inconsistent with the author’s or artist’s copyright or moral rights. This prohibition applies to unauthorized uses or reproduction for public or private use.
Copyright and moral rights apply to reproduction in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical. This includes photocopying, printing, recording, information storage and retrieval, also all electronic applications.
Publishers may obtain a one-time publication license signed by the author or artist. Publication of the same or similar material in other titles or electronic media, besides the medium covered by the original license, requires an additional license.
Readers may view Contra Cabal pages on screen and print out a copy for personal use. They may also save a copy to a local hard disk for the purpose of creating that copy. The publisher strictly forbids all other copying and distribution of any of the contents of Contra Cabal sites.
Permission to copy for personal use does not authorize content incorporation. Publishers must not copy content into any other work or publication. This prohibition includes hard copy, electronic, or any other form of published material. In particular, no part of Contra Cabal web pages may be distributed or copied for any commercial purpose.
Contra Cabal does not permit reproduction, transmission, or storage of content on any other web site or in any other form of electronic retrieval system. Nor may content form part of third party sites or electronic database or retrieval systems without express written permission.
Reviewers may extract brief quotations and embody them in critical articles and reviews published in printed periodicals or newspapers, without permission. However, both licensed publishers and reviewers must attribute the author or artist. They must send a printed copy of the published article or review to them within thirty days of publication.
No person or organization shall, by way of trade or otherwise, circulate any part of Contra Cabal without appending a reference to the publisher’s license. This condition also applies to approved sub-licensees.
The publisher permits permanent deep hypertext linking (using an URL that bypasses the site structure) directly to a page only when the URL for the home page also appears. For example, permanent linking to this page requires both:
http://contracabal.org/101-01-00.html and http://contracabal.org/
This prohibition does not apply to deep access by casual readers or search engines. It applies only to permanent links from other web sites or pages. A fair use exception covers publishing a short quotation from the original article if used as an explanation for the link.
The author employs the Authors’ Licensing and Collecting Society to collect reproduction fees from publishers for material published, in whole or in part, in any medium. Additional fees fall due from publishers for licensed rights beyond first use or for reprints in any printed or electronic media.
