Creative Commons
Creative Commons is a non-profit organization, that works to increase the amount of creativity (cultural, educational, and scientific content) in “the commons” — the body of work that is available to the public for free and legal sharing, use, repurposing, and remixing.
Their tools give everyone from individual creators to large companies and institutions a simple, standardized way to grant copyright permissions to their creative work.
The Creative Commons licenses enable people to easily change their copyright terms from the default of “all rights reserved” to “some rights reserved.”
Copyright
The Association has invested significant time and effort in developing a constitution, policies, guides and other documents and in some cases has drawn on the knowledge and expertise, freely given by members and other third parties; we see no justification in requiring that members and clubs within the archery community should each have to reinvent the same wheels!
As a service, primarily to our members and associated clubs, the benefits of this work are therefore freely available and may be reproduced and adapted as required. Most of the content of this web site is available in this way, subject to a Creative Commons license which specifies certain conditions.
Our requirements are that:
- you may not use the content for commercial purposes - we have not charged you, so it would be unfair for you to make a profit on our work;
- you may copy, print or reproduce any document provided that you do so in its entirety and exactly as published by us, or
- you may adapt content to better suit your needs, but if you do you must:
- replace our logo, name and all brand identification with your own;
- acknowledge where you got it from;
- include an identical license in your adapted version.
Please note that the Association makes no warrantee as to fitness for purpose and will accept no liability for errors of content.
There are however a small number of things that are explicitly excluded from the Creative Commons license:
Logo and Name
Where an existing document is copied, printed or otherwise reproduced in its entirety and exactly as published by us, there is no issue about the use of the logo and name. However, in all other cases the logo of the Association or of any of its brands may only be used or reproduced with the prior agreement of the Association.
Where agreement is given, it will be on condition that the Association's brand guidelines are observed - a copy of those guidelines will be provided at the time that agreement is given.
Other Images and Photographs
All other images and photographs that appear on the Association's web site remain the property of the Association or of the person, persons or organisation that supplied the respective image.
Use, reproduction and copying of those images and photographs without prior consent, may infringe the legal rights of the owner.
