OutRider Legalese

As a public (yet still free) site, OutRider must maintain some sort of policy regarding three topics:

• Email
• Code
• Content

This document covers these policies, if in doubt, Contact Us with questions or comments.

Content Policy

All content may be redistibuted in any form as long as the credit at the bottom of the document is acknowledged. Prior consent is not required.

Link backs may be directly linked anywhere, mentioning the name of the author would be nice, but isn't required since it is on the document being linked too anyway. Again, no prior consent is required.

Finally, this documentation is given free of charge with no GUARENTEE of usefulness whatsoever and no liablity to the author(s). If you try something OutRider suggests and it doesn't work, sure, drop us a line but otherwise you are on your own.

OpenContent-NOT

Content at OutRider is not covered under copyleft ot OpenContent licensing. We rarely, if ever, update old material unless a glaring error stands out or a reader has made a really excellent suggestion. Therefore the content does not fit in any content "licensing" categories (that is what a copyright is for anyway).

Code Snipplets

Are just that, snipplets. Consider them public domain. OutRider does not offer entire programs (yet).

Email

No email addresses sent via or about OutRider will ever be or have ever been divulged (including predecessor projects). Period. The emails are maintained by Jason Fink under lock and key on a home system.

Email distributions are done using blind copies. We cannnot afford a list server and have no intention of using so called free services.

Out Bound Links

When you leave OutRider, all bets are off. The policies no longer stand.
