Copyright Information
For the copyright status of content under the "Historic Works", "Images", and "History" sections of this site, see the bottom of each page for specific information on that content. Most pages are either in the public domain and may be freely reused without permission, or they are copyright © 2010–2015, James Yolkowski, and may be reused as described at the bottom of each page, usually (but not always) under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 Canada Licence. A few notes:
- While I have tried my best to ensure that content that I have described as being in the public domain is in fact in the public domain, it is possible that I have made a mistake; also, copyright laws vary from country to country. When reusing this material, it is your responsibility to ensure that your use is legal. If you have any information that would help me to better ascertain the copyright status of a work, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
- For content licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 Canada Licence, you can read the full text of the licence if you want, but basically, you have the permission to copy and modify the content, provided that you (1) credit the author of the work (either by prominently specifying that the original author of the work is James Yolkowski, or by providing a prominent link back to either http://www.warof1812-bicentennial.info/ or the specific page) and (2) any works that you create that are based on this work must be distributed under a similar licence.
- If you reuse public domain content on your own website, it would be appreciated if you could provide a link back to my site, although this isn't a legal requirement or anything like that.
- If you intend to reproduce images in print media, I may in some cases be able to provide higher-resolution images than what are found on the website; you can contact me to get a hold of these.
- If you intend to re-use images (especially larger ones) on your own website, I would appreciate it if you could take a copy of the image and put it on your own web server. Thanks!
