Copyright Notice
This page explains who owns the material on Cambridge Now ("the site"), what you may do with it, and how to raise a concern about content.
Ownership
The text of the articles, the page layout and any original graphics, tables and diagrams on the site are the work of the site's operator and are protected under the Copyright Act, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-42, and by international copyright treaties that Canada has joined. All rights are reserved unless a page says otherwise.
What you may do
Reading, printing a page for personal use, and linking to any page are welcome. Short quotations are allowed for criticism, review, news reporting, education and research, provided that the use is fair and you name the site and link to the page you quote. Anything beyond that, such as copying complete articles, reposting them elsewhere or using them to train a product, needs written permission. Use the contact form on this site, once published, to ask.
Sources are cited, not copied
Articles are written fresh from facts found in public sources. Facts and ideas are not owned by anyone, but the wording and arrangement of a source are. For that reason the site does not reproduce passages from Wikipedia, government publications or news reports. It summarizes in its own words and lists the source at the end of the article. Where a short quotation is needed, it is kept brief, placed in quotation marks and attributed.
Wikipedia text is available under a Creative Commons licence with attribution and share-alike conditions. The site does not republish it under that licence, and it points readers to the original article instead.
Government sources are cited as references. Some government material carries its own reproduction terms, and the site follows those terms whenever it uses an extract.
Images
The site does not currently use photographs. If images are added later, each will carry a credit and licence line, and only material the operator has the right to use will be published.
Third-party names and marks
Names, logos and trademarks of other organizations, products and public bodies are the property of their owners. They appear only to identify the subject of an article. Their use does not mean sponsorship, partnership or endorsement.
Reporting a concern
If you are a rights holder and believe that something on the site uses your work without permission, or if you want a factual error corrected, send a message through the contact form on this site, once published. Please include:
- the address of the page;
- the passage or item concerned;
- a description of your work or the correct facts, with a link or reference where possible;
- your name and a way to reach you.
The site will acknowledge a request within a reasonable time, review it in good faith, and then correct, rewrite or remove the material where the claim is justified. Requests that are clearly unfounded may be declined with an explanation. Please do not submit a notice you know to be false.
