COPYRIGHT INFORMATION for Authors
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS POLICY
Thank you for your interest in Technical Analysis, Inc. As
you know, Technical Analysis distributes its technical publications throughout
the world, and it is necessary to translate and abstract its publications,
and articles contained therein, for inclusion in various compendiums and
similar publications, etc. When an article is submitted for publication
by Technical Analysis, Technical Analysis understands that its acceptance
of the article implies that Technical Analysis has the rights to do all
of the things it normally does with such an article.
In connection with its publishing activities, it is the policy of Technical
Analysis to own the copyrights in its technical publications, and to the
contributions contained therein, in order to protect the interest of Technical
Analysis, its authors and their employers, and at the same time to facilitate
the appropriate reuse of this material by others.
The new United States copyright law requires that the transfer of copyrights
in each contribution from the author to Technical Analysis be confirmed
in writing. It is therefore necessary that authors complete either Part
A--Copyright Transfer Form or Part B--U.S. Government Employee Certification
on the (to be supplied) Copyright Form.
ACCURACY AND AUTHORSHIP
By submitting any material for publication, you warrant to
Technical Analysis, Inc. that the material is an original work of authorship
not previously published, that it does not violate the rights any third
party, and that you have the right to transfer copyright to Technical Analysis,
Inc. Our decision to publish is made in reliance on these representations.
AUTHOR/COMPANY RIGHTS
If you are employed and you prepared your paper as a part of
your job, the rights to your paper initially rest with your employer. In
that case, when you sign the copyright transfer form, we assume you are
authorized to do so by your employer and that your employer has consented
to all of the terms and conditions of this form. If not, it should be signed
by someone so authorized.
NOTE REGARDING RETURNED RIGHTS
Just as Technical Analysis now requires a signed copyright
transfer form in order to do "business as usual," it is the intent of this
form to return rights to the author and employer so that they, too, may
do "business as usual." If further clarification is required, please contact:
Jack K. Hutson, Publisher, Technical Analysis, Inc., 4757 California Ave.
SW, Seattle, WA 98116, (206) 938-0570.
JOINT AUTHORSHIP
For jointly authored papers, only one signature is required,
but we assume all authors have been advised and have consented to the terms
of this form.
US GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES
Authors who are US Government employees are not required to
sign the Copyright Transfer Form (Part A), but any co-authors outside the
Government are.
Part B of the form is to be used instead of Part A only if all authors
are US Government employees and prepared the paper as part of their job.
NOTE REGARDING GOVERNMENT CONTRACT WORK
Authors whose work was performed under a US Government contract
but who are not government employees are required to sign Part ACopyright
Transfer Form. However, item 5 of the form returns reproduction rights
to the US Government when required even though Technical Analysis copyright
policy is in effect with respect to the reuse of material by the general
public.
Thank you for your interest. A copy of the Copyright Form
and these instructions will be sent to all interested authors. Please contact
Elizabeth Flynn, Managing Editor.
