Copyright: This is a brief statement of copyright stating that visitors cannot rip off
text or images without express written consent from the company. This is fairly
standard, and usually easy to read. If a special license is applied to the content (see
the next section), make sure its language does not present a conflicting copyright
message.
Privacy policy: It is not uncommon for a privacy policy to be wrapped into the
terms of use, especially if it is short and clear. This practice depends on the company
and its legal counsel; more involved privacy policies are often relegated to
their own unique page. These are covered in the next section.
Disclaimer: Basically, this states that all content (including text, images, and downloads)
is covered as is, and the company is not responsible for out-of-date content.
It also states that changes can be made by the company at any time.
Some copyright notices also include the phrase ???All rights reserved,??? but this is no
longer necessary. Most countries are members of the Berne Convention,6 which
requires copyright protection be granted without any formality of notice of copyright.
