Notes about Copyright and Public Domain

Public domain can be complicated and is influenced by all manner of circumstances, some trivial. Public domain also varies by country. Visual Ancestor as a general rule respects and upholds copyrights and will take down any content for which we have been provided evidence that the content still is protected by a valid copyright. Since Visual Ancestor limits ancestral photographs and other artifacts to the pre-WWII time period, this is not a concern for the overwhelming majority of content that is archived and available here.

No original public domain work can be copyrighted, and as such, our library of digitized original content is not protected by copyright. Anyone is able to save an image of an original public domain work from Visual Ancestor free of any legal entangelment. However, any new work derrived thereupon is protected by modern copyright protections, e.g. arranging content based upon artistic interpretation and repairing a damanged photograph to produce a new (unoriginal) one. Wherever new work is protectable by copyright, Visual Ancestor does reserve all rights thereto.
