Terms of Use Agreement

This agreement directs the terms and conditions by which customers of Core Content Media Inc. (“the Company” or “we” or “our”) can acquire the rights to use the Content — both original and reprint articles — which the company provides through the website Corecontentmedia.com (“the site”). By selecting the “I Accept” box at the end of this agreement, an individual, company or authorized company representative (“you” or “the client” or “your”) agree to abide by the provisions.

1: Description of Content

“Content” on this site and in this agreement refers to articles, quizzes, sidebars, factoids, timelines, or any other media product created by or for the Company for sale on the site.

2: Licences

Content can be purchased with one of four licences: Byline, PLR, Full (or Exclusive) and Publisher's Pack licences. The type of licence available is indicated explicitly in the name of the article and in the long summary of each Content listing.

(Terms of Use and licensing information for Publisher's Packs are indicated in Section 9 below.)

a) PLR Licences

If you purchase an article with a non-exclusive, non-transferable PLR licence, you own the story and may alter it in any way you like. You may use it on your website or blog, in a newspaper, magazine, newsletter, RSS feed, e-book, promotional brochure or advertising supplement. You may alter the article to your liking, or may use the information in it in a different format such as a text message, a podcast or streaming audio, or on the radio.

You cannot resell the private label rights to another party. No other conditions or restrictions apply.

IF YOU ARE BUYING PLR LICENCES PLEASE SCROLL DOWN TO SECTIONS 10 TO 16 FOR GENERAL TERMS SUCH AS REFUNDS, PRIVACY, DIFFICULTY WITH DOWNLOADS AND MORE.

b) FULL OR EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS Licences

These licences are available on both prewritten and custom content. Full or exclusive rights mean that ONLY ONE COPY or LICENCE for an article is available for sale. The buyer owns full, exclusive rights to the content and may use it in any media format. The buyer cannot resell the article. Articles with full or exclusive rights will never be resold on this site.


TERMS 2c) to 8 IN THIS DOCUMENT APPLY TO BYLINE LICENCES ONLY

c) BYLINE Licences

If you purchase an article with a non-exclusive BYLINE licence, you must give credit to Core Content Media in a credit or source line. Where applicable, you must also retain the author’s name/byline.

Once you have purchased an article with a BYLINE licence, you are granted a perpetual, non-exclusive, non-transferable worldwide licence to use it with the conditions as outlined below in this Terms of Use Agreement. Any uses not listed here are not permitted. You understand that Core Content Media retains all copyright and other intellectual property rights relating to the Content, except in those circumstances in which copyright or intellectual property rights are retained by a third party in agreement with the Company. If you purchase BYLINE Content you may use it in your print publication only once, and/or on your website. If you want to use the article for more than these two purposes, you must purchase additional copies for each such use.

3 . Permitted Usage and Circulation of BYLINE Content

You may use the BYLINE Content purchased from Core Content Media only once and for the following purposes only:
(i) On websites or blogs, including consumer, commercial, informational, educational, not-for-profit or inspirational.
(ii) In magazines or newspapers with circulations not exceeding 350,000.
(iii) In newsletters with circulations not exceeding 350,000, distributed either on the client’s premises, via mail or by email.
(iv) In corporate, governmental, institutional or not-for-profit intranets.
You may not use the Content in any media format or product not outlined here.

4. Permitted Amendments to BYLINE Content

With the purchase of a BYLINE licence, you are allowed to alter the Content purchased from this site for only the following reasons:
(i) Content may be altered in spelling and punctuation to be consistent with the client’s house style.
(ii) Content may be shortened to fit required space in a magazine, newspaper, or newsletter, only so long as facts, attributions and meanings are not altered or in any way adjusted so as to misrepresent any information therein.
(iii) Content format may be altered to accommodate the creation of multiple web pages from a single article, or to be run as a serial in a print publication.
(iv) Font, color and type may be altered to suit the client’s artistic or layout requirements.
(v) Content title or sub-title (hed or dek, or head or deck) may be changed at client’s discretion.
(vi) HTML links to other websites within the Content may be changed and updated (as frequently, urls do change). Core Content Media is not responsible for updating links or urls after sale of Content.

Any use of BYLINE Content purchased from this site that is not expressly outlined here as a permitted use or permitted amendment shall constitute infringement of copyright.

(i) Advertisements or promotional efforts;
(ii) Books or e-books;
(iii) Brochures or catalogues;

6 . Reselling

7 . Extended licences for print media with circulations exceeding 350,000

If you wish to use our BYLINE Content in a magazine, newspaper, or newsletter with a circulation exceeding 350,000, you must buy an extended rights licence from Core Content Media. The Company will invoice you and the fee must be paid on delivery of the content.

8 . Termination of Agreement

This Agreement is effective from date of posting and with any purchase of Content from this site. It will be terminated only if you destroy the BYLINE Content and any copies, and no longer use the BYLINE Content in any medium or format. Core Content Media Inc. reserves the right to terminate the agreement if you are found at any time to not be complying with the terms of this agreement.
