Copyright

Have you used images or words on your web page or website that contravene copyright laws?

As stated on the Benedict website -

“Copyrighted works on the Net include news stories, software, novels, screenplays, graphics, pictures, and even email. In fact, the frightening reality is that the vast majority of the items on the Net are protected by copyright law.”

Given this information I would have to say that all of the pictures featured on my website are contravene copyright law. However, none of the text would be covered by any copyright laws.


Would you be in breach of copyright if you put the Curtin logo at the top of your web page for an assignment?

Based upon the information Curtin Copyright Statement, yes I would be in breach of copyright if I reproduced the Curtin logo without permission.
