Copyright Infringement & Privacy Policy
 

With more Rotary clubs and districts active on online platforms (holding meetings and events), please remember the importance of considering copyright infringement issues.  There has been an increase in the number of copyright infringement claims over the past few years. 

 

When your club or district uses literary, musical, or artistic works such as songs, poems, illustrations, photographs, charts, videos, or graphs in presentations, club or district websites, online or in newsletters, you must obtain a license or permission from the owner prior to use.  This includes any songs, photos, etc. you find on the Internet or created by a Rotary member.  Simply put, if you do not own the content, do not print or post it without receiving permission from the owner.
