If there are any copyrighted recipes on this message board in any section moderators please remove them. Unless we have the written permission of the author copyrighted recipes should not be posted on this board. If the moderators find any please remove them.

I do have written permission from Equal to post recipes if there is a link back to them.

Hi April,
I think most of us can tell what is copyrighted or not. Most of us go to lots of different web sites. Any recipe that we get from a can, package, box or web site (that we don't have permission from) belongs to that company. ie. A recipe on the back of a Campbell's soup can belongs to Campbell's! The wording is usually very formal and precise.
Good luck!
Chris

I must have missed something. Usually the companies don't mind if we use their recipes, it makes more sales for them.
What happened? We will have a lot less recipes....
Does that mean that we can no longer share the WW recipes? That would be a bummer.

That is a very good question!
One thing I don't understand is how do you remove a copyright recipe if we don't know if someone had forgot to include the info that tells us it was copyrighted.
Things like the name of the person who wrote it or where they got the recipe from etc.
I hope Nancy can help?
April B.

Hi April,
You can modify any topic in your section that you moderate.
Some sites won't allow us to use their recipes, as Nancy said in other messages. Chef Emeril won't, and Mr. Food won't either. I don't know about WW, but do know from our newsletter, that we cannot use their copyrighted recipes. When I want to help someone, I just tell them where to find the recipe(s) and give them the link to the site.
Good luck,
Chris

How do you know a certain website won't let you use their recipies? I.E. I would have just copied a recipe by Emeril without wanting to do anyting illegal.
I tought you could share a recipe. Especially if it was on the web. I understand that you cannot claim it as your own. But I honestly tought you could share the recipe.

Hi! To find out of a web site will allow us to post their recipes with a link back to their site, you go to their site and contact them and ask permission! I just did a few moments ago with www.allrecipes.com and www.recipesource.com. Recipe Source will allow us to post if we put a link back to their site and NOT claim the recipe as our own. It is on the customer service page. I still have not heard back from All Recipes. As to your question Michellene, we can go to those other sites and print off their recipes - that's what they are there for - but ONLY use them for ourselves. Sites like Chef Emeril are big businesses. They are allowed to restrict what we can and cannot do with their recipes. Hope this clears this up? Nancy, I hope this answers their questions. If I have missed anything, please let me know? Thanks! |
