Policies: Copyright

We lobby for copyright awareness and compliance on the Internet.

Full Copyright Protection

This site is fully protected under U.S. copyright law, with all rights reserved. See U.S. Copyright Office for more information.

Graphics and Design Elements Fully Protected, Too

Graphics and design elements of this site are also fully protected under trade and other laws, and may not be copied, either in whole or in part.

For Personal, Educational Use

You may print pages of this website for your personal, educational use if you keep the author and copyright information on the page(s). For example, you might print off the page for your support group meeting, being sure to leave on the ISN and ISN logos and our copyright notice. That's fine.

Copyright Law and the Internet

The same copyright protection which applies to authors of any written material also applies to the Internet. So, just because we can all easily copy or print something off the internet does not give any of us the automatic right to do so.
