Patent on
E-Commerce Business Model
Plain-language
Notice: Before explaining our formal,
"legal" copyright notice we wanted to explain our
position in plain-language for ease of understanding.
Basically, we ask that you do not take any part of our site
and use it for your own purposes. This does not however
mean that customers can not search our catalog and take
pricing or pictures when making a buying decision. It
means that if you decide to take any part of our site
including but not limited to our meta-tags, phrases, or images
and put them on your own site or other media in an effort to
gain from the use of those items, it will not be
tolerated. We regularly conduct internet searches and
examine other sites for stolen content from our site.
And yes, we have come across violations before and we have
pursued the individuals and companies responsible. We
simply ask that if you want to take something from any of our
sites that you please contact us first and ask for specific
written permission to do so. Members of the media /
press may however take images, phrases, or other wording for
articles and stories specifically related to our company and
our online operations. These items may be printed but we
ask that you simply give us the courtesy of a phone call to
let us know that you are doing a story. To sum it up,
if you take and use contents of our web site without our
permission, we will prosecute by filing BOTH criminal and
civil litigation against you and your company. With
that said and done, here's the more formal, legal version of
our copyright notice.
