Why R.I.G.H.T.S.?

To build a strong foundation of online education regarding the redistribution of graphics and other copyrighted materials via the internet.

Why?

There are thousands of new internet users each day. Additionally, thousands of new websites are created and uploaded each week. The potential for the unauthorized use of copyrighted material is substantial.

R.I.G.H.T.S. was created solely to provide the internet user with the tools for understanding online copyright based on specific legal definitions, the laws and principles.
