Should you want to use an illustration in a newsletter or in any other form of publication or handout other than those included as part of the Square Wheels toolkits, specific permission must be gotten from Performance Management Company prior to such use. Generally, we grant this permission fairly freely and search out collaborative opportunities. There are a number of places to get more specific information about copyrights and trademarks and to better understand the issues associated with the use of intellectual property. The Copyright Act protects the expression of ideas and include illustrations and other pictorial work and provides the owner with a monopoly over how the work can be used by others. You need permission to use the work in other ways not expressly given.
Penalties are high for infringement.
These violations can also be enforced by a civil suit. Square Wheels illustrations are all copyrighted, as are many other ideas and themes on this website and we will actively defend these images and address those who use them in ways not allowed by express written permission. We retain and maintain all rights to these materials.
