Copyright & Licensing

• Personal Area: Members of Zhura each have a personal area available to them for their own private projects. Find your personal area by selecting the personal tab on the menu bar. This is your workspace - think of it as an extension of your desktop - and Zhura is simply a free screenwriting tool you can use instead of buying (or pirating) an off-the-shelf solution. Any idea, script or video you place here can only be seen by you and is exclusively yours, all rights reserved.
• Private Group Area: Zhura PRO members have the ability to form private groups where they can create projects open for all members of that group to view and modify. If you create a group, the group name will appear as a tab on the main toolbar and only visible by the group members. Think of the group as your own private writing team. And as with any writing team, the rights to all material lie with the group and how members decide to share respective copyrights. It's up to you and fellow group members to work this out together.
• Public Area / Public Groups: We've adopted Creative Commons Licensing for all work in the public area which includes public groups. When you create or upload work to these areas, you will have the option to choose one of four licenses, depending on what you want to allow others to do with your work. But no matter what changes are made, you always retain the credit as the originator of that work.
