Who We Are

CORE Australia (“CORE”, “we”, “our”, “us”) is a not-for-profit, community-operated platform providing WordPress, CiviCRM, and other software tools to community groups, causes, and campaigns across Australia.

The contents of the CORE Australia website are protected by copyright. All rights are reserved.

How Copyright Works

Copyright arises at the moment a work is reduced to a material form — whether visible or not (for example, embodied in a file, tape, or disc). There is no requirement to register with a government authority to enjoy copyright protection. The familiar © symbol, followed by the name of the copyright owner and the year of first publication, is an internationally recognised way of asserting these rights.

We — or the relevant third parties — own and retain the copyright, trade marks, and other intellectual property rights in all materials found on this site. This includes, without limitation, web pages, documents, text, designs, graphics, audio, and video.

Unless we expressly say otherwise, you may only use this site for your own personal, non-commercial purposes. You may print or save an electronic copy of information for that purpose only. You must not sell or commercially exploit any information found on this site, and you must retain all copyright notices in any material you copy.

Beyond that limited personal use, you must not use, download, upload, copy, print, display, broadcast, perform, reproduce, publish, license, post, transmit, or distribute any materials from this site — in whole or in part — without our prior written permission. If you breach these conditions, your authorisation to use the site automatically terminates and you must immediately destroy any downloaded or printed materials.

By submitting any material to this site, you assign all intellectual property rights in that material to us. Please do not submit material if a third party holds any intellectual property rights in it.

All content is © Copyright CORE Australia, except where otherwise stated.

Our copyright works include literary works — original text in forms, data lists, questionnaires, and other written material — as well as the expression contained in original computer programs. Copyright also applies to artistic works such as diagrams, tables, and original logos. Audio, video, and digital embodiments of these works are equally protected from the moment they are created.

Computer programs are sets of statements or instructions used directly or indirectly by a computer to bring about a result. The expression in the underlying source or object code is treated in law much like the text of a traditional literary work. Our protected works include, but are not limited to, online learning materials, online assessments, and the content and presentation of this website.

• You may store a local copy of extracts from these pages, or print copies of extracts, for your own personal use or to inform authorised and potential users about CORE Australia’s materials.
• You may not charge for such use or gain any direct financial benefit from it. Commercial exploitation is expressly prohibited.
• You must include the copyright notice in any copy you make of extracts from these pages.
