Section 2. Content Copyright Notice

The posts published over ‘My Blog’ (“blog.hichamaged.net”) are copyrighted © Hicham Maged. All rights reserved. —  This simply means you are not allowed to copy or re-publish the full content of my blog by any mean without permission from the author and blog owner (“me”). Hereby you can:

Hereby, if you want a summary for any post, check the “category” that files this post and you shall find a short description for its subject of the post. You can easily reach the categories from the “sidebar” to the right hand side of the blog.

On the other hand, the blog contents for posts and pages usually have illustrations in the form of “photos”, “pictures”, “images” and “logos”. These materials are copyrighted by their respective authors and I credit the original source by mentioning the « Photo Credit » field which is located to the bottom right at the end of each individual post (or page).

Consequently, this field mentions if the illustration is created by me. If you are interested in using it, you are welcome to copy it to your server but kindly mention the original source in the form of link-back to the url of my post. Thanks in advance.
