General

Pornographic, defamatory, libelous or otherwise unlawful use of the image(s) is prohibited.

Where a credit is required, the following wording will be displayed in the immediate vicinity of the image(s): "www.JackZiegler.com".

All rights to the image(s) are owned by JackZiegler.com and Ziegler Toons, LLC and are protected by United States copyright laws, international treaty provisions and other applicable laws.

For reasons of satirical comment or parody, artists may occasionally include in a cartoon ("the work"), a trademark, trading name, individual's name, otherwise copyrighted term or a feature of the rights of publicity of an individual (collectively "third party intellectual property"). While JackZiegler.com has permission to license the original work, the permissibility of mentioning trademarks and other forms of third party intellectual property within the work depends on the specific use of the cartoon and the country/jurisdiction in which it is being used. JackZiegler.com can never be aware of all case law and statute in all countries, therefore ensuring that use of a cartoon incorporating such third party intellectual property is acceptable in any specific context is the responsibility of the licensee and JackZiegler.com does not give any warranty in this respect.

The image user shall, upon request provide a copy to JackZiegler.com of any publication containing image(s) licensed from JackZiegler.com.
