Copyright of all courses designed and developed by Proximity Online Course Developers will vest in the client (in most cases this is the client institution).
Any open educational resources (OER) that are incorporated in the courses will be attributed to their original authors. No licensing or permission will be required for re-using these. OER that bear a Creative Commons Non-derivative (CC ND) licence may not be remixed or adapted; however, if there is no ND element in the licence (e.g. CC BY, CC BY-SA, CC BY-NC and CC BY-SA-NC), remixing or adaptation are permitted.
We will also attempt to negotiate and secure the necessary permission for the re-use of any copyright-reserved resources that may be required, and that exceed the normal limits on fair use.
We will do our best to find alternatives for copyright-reserved material that incurs any once-off licence fees or recurring payments, by providing either links to the material or OER. If a client requests the incorporation of particular copyright-reserved material, we will notify the client in advance of the cost incurred.
