Permission Policy
I just want to establish some ground rules about my content. Asides “guest posts” written by others, I own the content on this Web site. It is copyrighted in my name. I want to strike a balance between getting my content widely distributed while at the same time protecting my intellectual property rights. I have written this to avoid any form of ambiguity with regards to the distribution of my work.
Without My Permission
You are free to do the following without my permission:
- Link to my site or any specific post on my site.
- Extract and re-post less than 200 words on any other site, provided you link back to my original post.
- Print off my posts and photocopy up to 50 copies for internal distribution within your own company or organization.
- Print my posts in any non-commercial publication (e.g., company newsletter, church newsletter, class syllabus, etc.), provided you include this copyright notice: “© 2017, Samuel Osho. All rights reserved. Originally published at www.samosho.com.”
Not Without My Permission
You must have my express written consent to do any of the following:
- Use this content in for commercial purposes, including selling or licensing printed or digital versions of my content.
- Alter, transform, or build upon this work.
Re-posting Rights
I do not permit the re-posting of my posts in their entirety. This is because Google penalizes websites for publishing duplicate content. It often can’t tell which site hosts the original, so I risk getting penalized myself for granting permission.
Guest Posts
Guest bloggers retain the copyright to the posts they write. The above permission guidelines do not apply to their work. If you are interested in re-posting or publishing their content, you must contact them directly.
If you have some use for my content that is not covered here, please get in touch with me via email.
