This website has content created and maintained over a period from 2004 through 2011. Individual essays, pictures and distinguishable units of content have dates of creation attributed to them to help discern their creation date and time. All content is protected implicitly by copyright law. This is a boilerplate notice which means that the content of this site is not registered under the copyrights act, but is protected implicitly by it. As a person who respects Intellectual Property Law, if you need to use any content of this site verbatim or changed, feel free to send me an e-mail. You will be granted permission officially. This would help create contact and probably work out best for you. If you are designing your site and want a layout, feel free to choose a similar layout. If you contact me, I can only prove to be of more help.
All content on this site is considered proprietary to the author, "Sunil Beta Baskar" unless otherwise mentioned. Some of my software downloadable from this website are licensed under GPLv2.0 and therefore are not proprietary. All my art creation is licensed on my flickr page. Most are licensed under "creative commons attribution non-commercial" license. You can use it providing you credit me for your content source. If you contact me, I will, in most cases grant permission to modify the content.
Quoted Content and Borrowed Content
If I have also borrowed content from other places, I have either used content licensed under public domain or creative commons non-commercial attribution. In case I have borrowed content that is not credited so, please inform me by e-mail immediately. I shall take suitable action and if needed remove such content from my website. In case I have "Quoted Content", I have used it under the terms of fair use. If you still find a compelling argument to inform me otherwise, please contact me and I shall attend to such content whether by attribution or by removal.
All e-mail conversation with me is not copyrighted by myself solely. I have a copyright statement if I originate the e-mail thread to cover and protect my content as a safeguard. This is only a preventive measure. This statement will continue to cover my responses and not the text I receive. In the case of publishing content or consulting content, the copyright statement provides a stronger safeguard in ensuring that it is meant only for a particular recipient and cannot be misused otherwise. The copyright statement in my e-mail is not meant to alarm or threaten anyone.
Dealing with wilful Infringement, Defacing or Malicious Intent
Although it is highly unlikely, anyone attempting to deface or succeeding to deface the content of this website will be dealt with to the fullest legal extent. While I can take a few jests in good humour, any attempt that is clearly indicative of malicious intent will be taken to the respective investigating authority. Part of this will be also done with the help of my website service provider Yahoo.com "Webhosting" services. Hence prosecution is not limited to the state or jurisdiction within which I live at any given point or where the content was created. You may always ask to copy or borrow content from the website by e-mail. I believe in an open world and copyright law as a means to ensure that the interests and freedom of everyone is protected.
