Terms of Use and Legal Notice
This page explains the usage rights, copyright status, and restrictions on data mining for artificial intelligence (AI) purposes regarding the content on our site.
1. Copyright and Quotation
Unless otherwise stated, all articles, writings, projects, and photographs on our site belong to Utopical Dev. By default, you may quote our content for informational purposes provided that you include an active link to the source (our site) and author attribution; unauthorized full copying is prohibited. Where an entry displays a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 (CC BY-NC-ND) license notice, that license governs the entry instead: its text and photographs may be shared and redistributed in full and unmodified, for non-commercial purposes, provided attribution is given and a link to the license is included.
2. Photographs and Images
The photographs, illustrations, and other visual content on our site are covered by the same copyright terms as our written content (see Section 1) — protected by copyright, belonging to Utopical Dev or used under license, unless stated otherwise. The absence of a visible watermark or copyright notice on an image does not waive these rights. Outside of an entry's CC BY-NC-ND license (where noted), images may not be downloaded, reproduced, redistributed, or reused on another site or service without our prior written permission. This license, where noted, covers only the content and image resolutions actually published on our site — it does not extend to source files, unpublished drafts, or higher-resolution originals, which we do not provide.
3. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Data Mining
We do not consent to the use of our content (articles, guides, service details, photographs, and other visual content) for training artificial intelligence (AI) models, large language models (LLMs), or machine learning systems (Text and Data Mining - TDM). Automated bots and crawlers scanning our site may not include these contents in model training datasets.
4. Search Engines and AI Assistants
We permit AI-based search assistants (e.g., ChatGPT RAG systems, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, etc.) to read our site in real-time and summarize or reference our content when answering user queries, provided they provide a source link (attribution).
5. Commercial Use
The information, software, and service content on our site may not be copied, reproduced, or sold for commercial purposes without permission.
