More Information for Creators: Overview | Services | Sign Up
A creator's name or company name affixed to works using the iCopyright ©eators Tag literally becomes the copyright notice. Wherever the creator's works go, the personalized and interactive ©reator tag goes with it, communicating to all those who see the works who owns them -- and providing a mechanism to get permission to use the works.
For example, Jane Doe's iCopyright ©reator Tag would appear on her online works as follows:
Copyright 2009-2010, Jane Doe. All rights reserved.
Her ©reator Tag would appear on her offline works as follows:
Copyright 2009-2010, Jane Doe. All rights reserved. http://janedoe.icopyright.com.
(People can go to the web and enter the Tag URL to learn more about Jane and to get permissions). See real examples below.
