Our
copyright position in general
The
information about Crown copyright protection, above, relates to
material on our website.
For
material not on our website, we are content to let people use and
reproduce most of the Crown copyright material that we produce (including
material from our registers) free of charge, in any format or medium,
provided they reproduce it accurately and do not use it in a misleading
context. We simply ask that they should acknowledge it as Crown
copyright.
However,
there are a few exceptions to this general position, so please look
for special copyright notices on our material that show what we
expect and what we ask you to do if you want to reproduce relevant
material. Examples of these special notices are:
"©
Crown copyright 2002. This document (excluding the logo of the Registers
of Scotland Executive Agency) may be reproduced free of charge in
any format or medium for research, private study or for internal
circulation within an organisation. This is subject to it being
reproduced accurately and not used in a misleading context. The
material must be acknowledged as Crown copyright and the title of
the document specified. For any other use of this material, please
apply to the Registers of Scotland for a license, either online
at www.ros.gov.uk or by writing to Marketing and Business Development,
Registers of Scotland, Meadowbank House, 153 London Road, Edinburgh
EH8 7AU."
"©
Crown copyright 2002. Applications to reproduce the material in
this document should be addressed to Marketing and Business Development,
Registers of Scotland, Meadowbank House, 153 London Road, Edinburgh
EH8 7AU."
Another exception to our general position relates to our registration
application forms, if you intend to include these forms in your
own software packages which you sell to solicitors and others.
If
you want to reproduce material which carries special notices like
the ones in our examples above, or if you want to use our forms
in your software packages, you can do so only under license from
us. Please click here for
