Guide to republishing Causa Natura content
We are pleased that the contents of Causa Natura are considered to be of public interest and are shared. Here are some simple steps that those who repost our articles must follow:
Somewhere above the text, the following caption must appear: “This article was originally published by Causa Natura.” The words “Causa Natura” must be linked to the original URL of the story.
Articles must be signed, ideally in this format, for example: “By Juan López, Causa Natura.” This signature must appear at the top of the text.
Cases that do not warrant the two previous steps are those in which the person who reposts our content takes a piece of information, quote, or paragraph that is derived from the reporting work or research of Causa Natura, rather than one of our articles in its entirety. In this case, we ask that you cite our organization in the corresponding paragraph of your publication. And if there are one or more organizations that collaborated with Causa Natura in the preparation of such data or content used by you, we request that they also be given due credit.
- Those who reproduce articles in their entirety from Causa Natura are free to add information. In such cases, readers should be informed with a caption. An example: “Information has been added by reporter Violeta Rodríguez from Espacio Político (or by the editorial staff of Espacio Político).”
The photographs and infographics generated by Causa Natura are free to be reproduced with proper credit. On the other hand, graphic materials from external photojournalism agencies (paid) to Causa Natura can only be reproduced by those who pay for such services.
In the case of videos or video clips generated by Causa Natura, the organization's logo must be respected.
- There is no problem if Causa Natura articles are published on websites that use advertising. What will not be permitted is for advertising that directly attacks the Causa Natura article to be sold after our content has been reposted.
Content generated by Causa Natura may not be commercialized or used by sites that are not dedicated to informing, educating, disseminating scientific information, or promoting the work of civil organizations. Causa Natura content may not be used by agencies dedicated to improving the web positioning of third parties, nor by advertising networks (dedicated to acting as intermediaries between websites and advertisers).
- The content of Causa Natura cannot be used to solicit donations.
Sites that repost content from Causa Natura and wish to share it on social media must tag Causa Natura. (causanatura on Facebook; @CausaNatura on Twitter).
