If you are interested in using the platform
Check the file Joining the game which explains more about using any data related to this simulation.
Contributing to the content of the simulation
The basic situation is easy: everything anywhere is copyrighted automatically by law. So all pictures and images which you can find anywhere, even on the internet or social. So keep that in mind when using existing pictures, photos when playing the simulation. There is no copyright or trademark symbol anything needed. So the fact that you can copy something (save as...) doesn't mean you are allowed to do so. Also telling a picture or a photo has copyrights and mentioning the name of the 'owner' is not sufficient. Copyright means you have to have an agreement with the owner. There are a number of exemptions (depending on legislation per country).
Mostly this will be:
- Humour
- Citation (so short fragments with references). Using a photo is NOT a short reference.
- Creative adding by which the (new) image, music, video or text is a kind of new product
- Education (to a certain extent).
We suggest not to bet on number three and four, but to be safe and chose for images you can use for sure.
There are enough sites with copyright free images, free stock material. Google even offers this search restriction in Google image-search and then use the tab search tools and then chose labeled for reuse.
Flickr and many others sites offer free images (beware which one you chose):
- Shutterstock: not all!
- Flickr
- Freeimages
- librestock.com searching in 47 free stock images databases
Good suggestion: make pictures for yourself or make a serious(creative) change to existing material, then reusing it is allowed.
All the material in our platform is creative commons as well.
For free sounds, music, and videos go the same! For instance
