PHOTO AND CONTENT USE POLICY

Thank you for your interest in sharing our content.

Our content is copyrighted material and we work very hard to produce it. It is not legal to share it on websites, social media or in any other way without permission.

Recipes found on My ProductiveBackyard.com are specifically created for this website. Each recipe takes many hours to produce and be sure they are just right to publish! The process of producing recipes involves testing, ingredients, photography, equipment, editing software and a lot of time. Please respect my guidelines if you would like to share my recipes.

ROUND UPS

If you are a BLOGGER and you are creating a round up, I would love to be included! Feel free to use one photo with a do-follow link and once published, let me know so I can share your roundup on Facebook and Pinterest! You are welcome to publish a summary of the article/recipe but not ingredient lists or directions of course.

GENERAL GUIDELINES

If you would like to SHARE my recipes, I would love that! Please note that copying/pasting or screenshots is not sharing. I do not permit copying and pasting or screenshots of entire recipes on ANY WEBSITE or social media. No exceptions. Please do not crop off my watermark or add text to my photos.

YOU ARE WELCOME TO post a photo on Facebook with a link leading directly to my recipe.  Please do not post full ingredients/directions on Facebook including on pages or in groups.

YOU ARE WELCOME TO use the “share” button on any page or on found on My Productive Backyard’s Facebook Page to share a link to any recipe. Please DO NOT copy and paste the ingredients and directions list onto the shared post.

Taking my recipes and reproducing or copying and pasting them on Facebook or your blog violates Facebook terms and copyright laws.  Please do not take my recipes without permission.

RECIPE, PHOTO OR ARTICLE USE

You may not republish our recipes or articles. We don’t allow other websites or publications to publish our articles or recipes. Again, our content, including photos, articles and recipes are copyrighted material and may not be published elsewhere.

You are welcome to share one photo per article/recipe as long as you prominently link back to the original post. Do not share more than one image from a post without our explicit permission. (Email us.) In the case of recipes, do not republish the recipe itself.

You may not use our pictures and photos to promote something else. You must request our express written permission beforehand. We do not allow our photos to be used as clip art, stock images or illustrations unless we’ve negotiated the licensing details and compensation beforehand.

CONTENT SYNDICATION

We don’t allow our recipes or posts to be syndicated. No exceptions.
