Portal and Related Facilities disclaimer continued
All material on this website
is offered on a goodwill, good-faith, 'As is' and 'As
Available' basis only. Images and content have been derived
over many years and from many sources. Some have been
originated by the site owner, some have been provided
by clients and may be used as portfolio examples,
some have been derived from clip art and photo art disks
and others have been provided by online sources that
claim to be royalty-free. The point is that this Portal and Related Facilities try to live by the principle of protecting and respecting
creative copyrights, intellectual copyrights, trademarks,
etc. -- for all. However, since the
arena of copyright, of who is the original creator of
an image, and so on, has become extremely complicated
and convoluted, the owner of this website accepts no
liability or responsibility, in any way whatsoever, for
any breaches or infringements in the above said areas.
This Portal or Related Facilities
may have used images or content that was derived from a source
that was believed to be royalty free; which source may
have done the same to obtain the image from another source which it believed to royalty free and so on. In other words,
it is possible that the Owner has made use of images
believed to be royalty free, that may not have been intended
to be royalty free by its original creator. Such use
is inadvertent, unintentional and without knowledge that
there may be an infringement, or a breach of copyright, or conditions of royalty. Should such a breach of royalty, trademark etc. be discovered
on this website or in any of the materials or images
used by the Owner, the Owner will not accept liability,
claims of damages or compensation, or responsibility
in any form whatsoever, as has already been stated. Similarly,
the Owner will not accept liability for claims of loss
of income, or of reimbursement to the original creator
in any way whatsoever. However, the discrepancy should
be noted by recording the website page address, (the
URL), the URL of the image, and the date. This should
be forwarded to the Portal with a clear explanation of
why it is believed that there is a breach or an infringement.
The explanation should also include clear details of
the image's, or the copyright item's, owner
/ Owner's contact details and website details as well
as the context of its original use. We will respond by investigating the validity of
the alleged discrepancy. If we discern
that a discrepancy has taken place in the form of a
copyright breach, misuse of trademark, etc. the we
will gladly agree do one or more of the following, but
nothing more; [1] Remove the item in question from the
website. [2] Give the original creator of the item in
question credit for the creation of the item by [3] Including
a referenced link to the original creator's website on
condition that such a website is used within a family-friendly
context. Such links and references back to the original
creator will be considered to be a form of advertising
in favor of the original creator, which will be offered
without charge in order to 're-compensate' the original
creator for whatever reason. The links and references
back to the original creator will be maintained only
for as long as the original creator's material remains
on this website. This Owner will retain the right and
sole discretion to continue to maintain said links and
references to the original creator after the original
creator's work has been removed from this website. These
steps will be done in a spirit of goodwill in order to
credit the original creator of an image or trademarked
item. However, if there is not a sense of goodwill reciprocated
in return, the Owner will at his own and sole discretion,
and without obligation, explanation or liability, be
free to not take any of the above steps. The Owner is
more than happy and willing to work in a spirit of goodwill
and cooperation, and to give credit where credit is due,
in order to build others up. The return of such goodwill
and spirit of cooperation encourages the Owner to cooperate
and assist where possible. Other approaches may not encourage
cooperation and will be less likely to resolve the issue quickly and amicably. For more information concerning procedures to follow to report a credit infringement, see the Credits page.
Your continuation into this website or your commissioning of a product or service will bind you to these clauses, and all Terms, in full and in every way.
