Reproduction of Online Materials Policy
Overview
From time to time, the Canadian Kennel Club, Inc. (“CKC”) may, at its sole discretion, allow individuals or organizations to reproduce sections, articles, stories, or graphics from the CKC website (referred to as “CKC Material”) for offline use. Those seeking permission to reproduce CKC Material must obtain prior approval from CKC as outlined below. If granted permission, the user must credit CKC as specified by CKC and include the URL from which the CKC Material was sourced. Requests to reproduce materials not owned by CKC will not be considered. CKC reserves the right to deny any request, for any reason, without explanation.
CKC does not permit the reproduction of CKC Material for online use by others. Instead, CKC requires that individuals or organizations link to the CKC website in accordance with CKC’s Linking Policy.
