Genealogy's Star - Copyright and the Genealogist -- Part Three
Collapse

-
Once again the above posting is from the very lax US point of view.
Copyright under UK and European laws is far tighter and includes Database Right which gives copyright on a collection of facts for 15 years from the last update of the database.
This also involves repeated use of facts.
In addition regard must be taken of the stringent contract laws involving licence agreements.
Postings such as that by the Genealogy's Star have caused UK genealogists a host of problems following such advice may lead to trouble, cancellation of subscriptions or even litigation.
