It is also permitted, according to the same principle, the "short quotation" of the texts contained in the site for the purpose of criticism and discussion, reporting the author, the source and the hypertext link to the original content.

Images

The Site contains images and graphics produced and owned both by the Site owner itself and by third parties, and covered by different types of licenses. In order to ensure maximum transparency and respect for copyrights, the origin and type of license are indicated (when possible) at the bottom of the articles. Below are the details on the license types used for the images:

all rights reserved (copyright): unless otherwise specified, the rights of the images (including graphics) are owned by the Site owner, or by third parties for which the Site owner has obtained free authorization from the legitimate owner of the rights, or has regularly purchased a license for use (e.g. stock images). The reproduction, reuse and distribution of these images is prohibited without the express authorization of the rights holder. When possible, compatibly with the technical limitations of the platform, these images are indicated with the symbol © and any indication of the author or origin.

fair use: in some cases, copyrighted images are used without prior authorization from the rights holder when, in good faith, the principle of "fair use" is believed to be applicable (Article 70 paragraph 1-bis of the Italian Law January 9, 2008, no. 2). This is done because the images are distributed for free, in low resolution, for informational/educational purposes only, and the source is attributed, especially when no other free or licensed images are available. The "fair use" is indicated in the image description. However, these images are still to be considered as copyrighted by the rights holder(s), and all relevant limitations apply.

some rights reserved (copyleft): some images are reused under "creative commons", GNU / FDL or similar license. In this case they are images of third parties whose author allows free re-use in compliance with certain conditions. The license type is specified in the image details using the following symbology:
[CC] Creative Commons license: it can be accompanied by the version of the license (eg 4.0) and by the following abbreviations that specify the conditions applied (N.B.: several conditions may apply simultaneously):
[BY] attribution: the author of the work must be attributed;
[NC] non-commercial: commercial uses of the work are not permitted;
[ND] no derivative works: it is not allowed to modify the work and / or distribute derivative works;
[SA] share alike: distribution of the work is permitted only under the same or equivalent license;

For more details on Creative Commons licenses, please check the link provided in the image description and the official Creative Commons guide.

[GFDL] o [GNU-FDL] GNU Free Documentation License: that is a copyleft license for free content, originally created for texts and software but also used for images. In general, it allows the redistribution of the work for commercial purposes and modification, provided that it is released under the same license. For details on the GFD license, please refer to the official website of the GNU project.

public domain: some of the images on the Site are in the public domain either due to the expiration of legal protection terms according to the laws of the country where they were created, or because they were voluntarily released by the author as such. This includes images for which it was not possible to determine the copyright, but are reasonably believed to be in good faith (e.g. historical images). On Lapůta, these images are indicated with the abbreviation [PD]. In accordance with technical limitations, and whenever possible, all available and relevant information is provided to trace the source. Images in the public domain are excluded from the site's copyright, except for those that have been modified to create a new image (derivative works). For example, historical images that have been colorized are not necessarily in the public domain, even if the original image was.

Requests for attribution or removal

If, despite the utmost attention paid, a content (text or image) has been erroneously attributed or unintentionally used in violation of the license terms and / or in such a way as to infringe the copyright, we invite you to report it through the contact form to request attribution, rectification or removal.

Advertising

This site uses banner ads and "referral links". Banners are graphic ads for advertising purposes for which the site receives a fee following a "click" or a certain number of views. Referral links are hyperlinks that contain a code that allows the merchant to identify the site of origin and recognize a commission following an eligible purchase. The content of the graphic ads (banners) is not under the direct control of the owner and is the sole responsibility of the advertiser. Any purchases made by advertising links, both graphic (banner) and textual (link), are made exclusively on the advertiser's site and take place outside of www.laputa.it which is therefore not comparable to an e-commerce activity. For information on the use of cookies for advertising purposes, consult the privacy section or the cookie policy.

Amazon

As an Amazon Affiliate, the Site owner receives a commission from eligible purchases.
