Intellectual Property Policy

1. Farm-Stand's content

The Farm-Stand name, logo, website design, software, newsletter and the content we create are owned by Farm-Stand or our licensors. You may not copy, modify or use them, including our name or logo, without our written permission, except to link to Farm-Stand or share a page.

2. Content you upload

You keep ownership of the photos, logos, descriptions, reviews and other content you add to Farm-Stand. By uploading it, you give Farm-Stand a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, display, reproduce, resize and adapt it to run and promote Farm-Stand and local farms. For example, we may show your farm in search results, the newsletter, event materials or social media posts about local farms.

This licence ends when you remove the content or delete your account. Copies already shared publicly (such as a sent newsletter or a published post), and copies kept in backups for a reasonable time, are not affected.

3. You must have the rights

Only upload content you own or have permission to use. Do not upload photos taken by others, stock images or logos without the right to do so, and do not use another business's name or trademark in a way that could confuse people.

4. Using farm listings

Farm listings are provided for personal, non-commercial use. You may not copy, scrape or republish listings, photos or reviews, for example to build another directory, without permission from Farm-Stand and the farm concerned.

5. Reporting infringement

If you believe content on Farm-Stand infringes your copyright or trademark, email hello@farmstandna.com with:

• your contact details;
• a description of the work;
• a link to the content on Farm-Stand; and
• a statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorised.

We will review the report, may remove the content, and will forward notices as required under the notice-and-notice regime of Canada's Copyright Act.
