Terms of Use

WELCOME TO MY TERMS OF USE OR SERVICE SECTION…. Yawn. This page has the potential to be even more boring than the Privacy Policy page. To avoid that, however, I’m going to make it short, if not sweet. Since there is no legal requirement for me to have a Terms of Use or Service section on my website, I’m not going to say much, but know this:

MATERIAL ON MY WEBSITE AND IN MY BOOKS IS PROTECTED BY FEDERAL COPYRIGHT. This is not the plain, ole, ordinary copyright that a person gets automatically when s/he writes something, but a copyright © filed with the Library of Congress, in Washington, D.C., according to the provisions of the United States Copyright Laws. If you violate a plain, ole, ordinary copyright, then shame on you, but you won’t get sued for triple damages and have a lot of legal hassle which you probably would regret.

There is more information than a normal person would want to know about copyrights and a whole lot of other stuff at: www.loc.gov. LOC stands for Library of Congress.

BOTTOM LINE: DON’T VIOLATE COPYRIGHT LAWS! Ignorance is no excuse. I was a lawyer, there are lots of lawyers in my family, and my family lawyers know lots of other lawyers. Don’t copy stuff from my website and/or from my books, and there will be no trouble.

WE WILL PROTECT OUR COPYRIGHT MATERIAL, SO DON’T TRY ANYTHING STUPID… like the redneck who decided to steal all the money from a parking meter downtown. He wrapped a chain around the meter’s post and wrapped the other end of the chain around the bumper on his pickup truck. When he tried to jerk the meter from the concrete, he lost his bumper and, in a panic about getting caught, he drove off without it. Of course, his license plate was on the bumper. OUR COPYRIGHT IS OUR LICENSE PLATE… and can be identified.

You can always contact me with questions (not for legal advice other than to observe the copyright laws!) via email: dolly@dollykyle.com. Thanks for visiting my website… and for behaving yourself while you’re here.
