Photo & Content Copyright
While I will not go into the technical details
of copyright laws, as anyone can use their search engine to
find reliable source information regarding copyright laws,
I would like to stress that just because it is free to
view (on the internet), it is not free to take and
use without express written permission!
This applies to photos and content (text).
After repeatedly discovering instances of bandwidth
theft (hot linking), photo theft and even content theft (reproduction
of article without permission), I felt it important to create
this web page to stress that it is ILLEGAL to take and use
any content from a web site that is not your own, without
express written permission from the copyright holder.
PHOTOS - The copyright owner is the person
who took the photo. This may or may not be the owner of the
horse in the photo. The majority of the photos on this site
were taken by the owner of the subject horse. I have worked
very hard to be sure that I have proper permission to use
the photos on this site, and I am extremely grateful for the
generosity of those horse owners and photo owners!
CONTENT - Unless otherwise quoted, all
content (text) on this web site is my original work. I own
the copyright, and as the copyright owner, my written permission
must be obtained before it may be reproduced (print or internet)
elsewhere. Visitors have permission to download any PDF articles
for their personal viewing/reading, of course. But reproduction
(print or internet) requires my express written permission,
and may possibly require compensation.
How to Obtain Photo Permission: If you
do see a photo on this web site that you would like to use
for a specific purpose, please contact me using one of the
email links at the bottom of this page and I will gladly forward
your request to the owner of the photo/horse, so that you
can get legal, written permission from the owner of that photo.
How to Obtain Content Permission: If
you would like to reprint/publish any article that I have
written and presented on this site (or any of the site content)
in a club newsletter, breed journal, or any other type of
publication, you may contact me directly using one of the
email links at the bottom of this page. Compensation may be
required.
Thank you!
