About this Page

ToL Treehouse Use Permitted by Copyright Owner

1. Restricted to one-time use in specified location. Do not edit.

This option is for Treehouse Builders who want to maintain strict control over the use of their materials. Content submitted under this model is provided only for specific use on a particular ToL page. While these materials may be featured in the results of ToL search facilities, they are not available for any other use without prior consultation with the copyright owner.

2. Use anywhere on the Tree of Life. Editing/formatting permitted.

Contributions submitted under this model can be used by other ToL contributors to put together multi-authored ToL pages about a given topic. For example, a contributor may submit a description of the mating behavior of a dragonfly; another contributor writing a page about mating behavior in insects may then want to feature this description (in whole or in part) as an example on their own page. Whenever a contributor's contribution is displayed on a ToL page, it will be credited to the original author, and there will be a copyright notice informing visitors that the material is protected by copyright law.
3. Unrestricted ToL use and share with other scientific/educational projects.
Editing/formatting permitted.

This model covers all ToL use detailed in model 2. In addition, it allows the ToL to share materials with select, non-commercial, scientific or educational partner projects. Media submitted under this model may be exported to the databases of ToL partner projects, and they may be displayed on the web sites of these projects. Note that the ToL does not share materials with commercial content providers. Also, the ToL requires collaborating projects to always credit copyright owners alongside materials imported from the ToL collection.

We encourage ToL contributors to choose this model in order to maximize the dissemination of their materials through not-for-profit projects, and to participate to the fullest in an emerging, international community of scientific and educational content providers.
