Content Rights Policy
This page explains how programme materials, educational resources, workshop content, reports, images, visual assets and related materials published by BE(YOU)FULL CIC may be viewed, cited, reproduced, shared, licensed or otherwise accessed. It also acts as the public rights and permissions page for selected BE(YOU)FULL CIC images and assets where structured data, image metadata or rights notices point to this page as the relevant licensing and usage reference.
1. What this page covers
This policy applies to original content published by BE(YOU)FULL CIC on this website unless a different licence, attribution note, rights statement or third-party credit is expressly stated on the relevant page, image, report, downloadable resource, event asset or other item.
Workshops, mentoring, educational and developmental resources
This page covers original BE(YOU)FULL CIC programme materials, workshop resources, mentoring and coaching materials, educational tools, learning content, reflective resources, public-benefit materials and selected downloadable assets published on the site unless otherwise stated.
Reports, public information, impact content and organisational publishing
It also covers original reports, public communications, impact summaries, event pages, project pages, partner-facing materials, organisational copy, campaign content, public announcements, page copy and selected case-study or programme documentation published by BE(YOU)FULL CIC.
Project images, graphics, diagrams and public-facing visual materials
The policy also covers original BE(YOU)FULL CIC graphics, diagrams, event visuals, educational graphics, campaign images, page imagery, project visuals and selected other original image assets published on the site.
Important: this page is intended as the public rights and permissions page for BE(YOU)FULL CIC as an organisational, educational, programme-delivery and public-benefit entity. It is distinct from any separate rights page used for the BE(YOU)FULL concept and philosophy website, which may govern the philosophy, frameworks, diagrams and conceptual intellectual property published on the .com site.
2. Ownership of BE(YOU)FULL CIC content
Unless otherwise stated, original content published by BE(YOU)FULL CIC is protected by copyright, design rights, database rights, trademark law and other applicable intellectual property rights. Rights may sit with BE(YOU)FULL CIC, Carlos Simpson, BE(YOU)FULL, CARLOS SIMPSON™ or another clearly identified rights holder where expressly stated.
BE(YOU)FULL CIC operates within a wider Carlos Simpson and BE(YOU)FULL ecosystem. Certain pages, visuals, reports, educational materials, publications or project references may intersect with associated Carlos Simpson properties, including BE(YOU)FULL, Carlos Simpson Design Studio, Carlos Simpson Art, Politics Design and Carlos Simpson Music. Where such materials appear, rights may remain with the relevant named project, BE(YOU)FULL CIC, BE(YOU)FULL, Carlos Simpson or another clearly identified rights holder as indicated by the context. Their presence on this website does not grant permission to reproduce, republish or commercially exploit them without prior written approval.
Protected BE(YOU)FULL CIC content may include
- original programme materials, workshop content, guides, templates, reflective tools and educational resources;
- project pages, event materials, campaign materials, public communications, case studies and organisational writing;
- reports, downloadable documents, impact summaries, resource pages, handouts and public-facing information materials;
- original graphics, diagrams, charts, educational visuals, campaign visuals, project imagery and page graphics;
- logos, programme names, project names, campaign titles, taglines, marks and other brand identifiers used by BE(YOU)FULL CIC; and
- other original content created by or for BE(YOU)FULL CIC and published on this website unless expressly credited to a third party.
Third-party, partner and participant materials
Some pages, projects, events, reports or programme materials may include third-party assets, partner materials, commissioned work, contributed materials, participant-generated content, photographs, quotations or contextual references shown for documentation, communication, educational, archival, reporting or public-interest purposes.
Rights in those materials may remain with the relevant partner, participant, commissioner, publisher, photographer, collaborator or other rights holder. This policy does not grant permission to reuse third-party, partner or participant-owned materials simply because they appear on the BE(YOU)FULL CIC website.
3. Programme, educational and partnership use
BE(YOU)FULL CIC operates in an educational, mentoring, developmental, cultural and community context. That means this page must distinguish between lawful reading, citation, sharing of public links and discussion of the CIC’s work on the one hand, and the reproduction, redistribution or adaptation of protected BE(YOU)FULL CIC materials on the other.
Linking, referencing and limited citation
In many cases it will be acceptable to link to a public BE(YOU)FULL CIC page, cite a report or project page, refer to a public programme or quote a short passage lawfully with appropriate attribution where the use is fair, proportionate and does not reproduce protected materials in full.
Reproducing resources, graphics or substantial materials
Reproducing a BE(YOU)FULL CIC worksheet, handout, toolkit page, report graphic, event visual, original image, project diagram, substantial extract or downloadable resource in a workshop, partner pack, internal training deck, school programme, council presentation, funder pack or other publication will usually require permission.
Public-benefit purpose does not remove rights
The fact that a use is educational, charitable, community-oriented, developmental or non-profit does not automatically mean it is free to reproduce. Permission may still be required where original BE(YOU)FULL CIC resources, images, reports, graphics, worksheets or substantial text are being reused beyond lawful citation or linking.
If a school, charity, council, NHS team, university, community organisation, youth programme, research body, funder, partner or other institution wishes to reuse original BE(YOU)FULL CIC materials in a resource pack, workshop, event, report, campaign, presentation, training programme or publication, it should request permission where protected content is being reproduced.
4. Image licensing and visual-asset permissions
Original BE(YOU)FULL CIC images, project visuals, graphics, charts, diagrams, event visuals, campaign visuals and selected other image assets remain protected unless a different licence is expressly stated. Permission may be available for educational, editorial, institutional, partner, community or commercial contexts depending on the asset and the intended use.
Schools, universities, workshops and learning environments
Educators, lecturers, trainers, schools, universities and public-interest organisations may request permission to use selected original BE(YOU)FULL CIC images or graphics in teaching, workshops, learning materials, presentations or educational-development contexts.
Partner communications, project dissemination and community use
Project partners, community organisations, charities, councils and other collaborators may request permission to reproduce selected BE(YOU)FULL CIC visuals, project graphics or event materials in agreed dissemination, reporting or communications contexts.
Press, reporting, features and documentary reference
Journalists, editors, publishers and media organisations may request permission to use selected original BE(YOU)FULL CIC images, campaign visuals or report graphics in editorial, documentary or reporting contexts.
Commercial use, sponsorship or third-party publishing
Commercial use of original BE(YOU)FULL CIC visuals or protected materials in campaigns, paid publications, external commercial programmes, consulting products, third-party marketing, sponsorship collateral or other revenue-generating contexts requires prior written permission and may require a separate licence agreement.
5. How to request permission or a licence
This section is intended to operate as the public permissions and licensing acquisition page for selected BE(YOU)FULL CIC images and related content where structured data, image metadata or rights notices point to this page as the relevant acquireLicensePage, license or usageInfo destination.
What to include in your request
- the page, report, image, graphic, worksheet, toolkit, event asset, article or other item you want to use;
- the URL of the relevant BE(YOU)FULL CIC page;
- whether the intended use is educational, institutional, partner-facing, editorial, research-based, internal, public-facing or commercial;
- whether the material will be used in a workshop, classroom, course pack, event, presentation, report, publication, partner document, internal training, campaign or digital product;
- the audience, territory, duration and format of the intended use;
- whether you want to quote text, reproduce a graphic, use a photo, reuse a report extract, adapt a resource or republish a visual asset; and
- any event date, publication deadline, reporting deadline or approval timeline.
Submit the request
Send the relevant page, report, image, graphic, resource or other content reference together with the intended use and delivery context.
Rights review
The request is reviewed to determine whether BE(YOU)FULL CIC controls the relevant rights and whether any third-party, partner or participant permissions are also relevant.
Permissions response
If the request can proceed, terms may include attribution, media, scope, duration, audience, restrictions, approval requirements, partner conditions or fees where applicable.
Written approval only
No licence or permission is granted unless and until written confirmation has been issued by BE(YOU)FULL CIC, Carlos Simpson or the relevant authorised rights holder.
6. Usage information, citation and attribution expectations
This page may also function as the public usageInfo reference for selected BE(YOU)FULL CIC images and creative works. Where that is the case, it should be read as providing additional information about permitted use, attribution expectations, licensing context, restrictions and the route for obtaining further permissions.
Citing BE(YOU)FULL CIC materials
If you are referring to a public BE(YOU)FULL CIC page, report, event page, educational resource or public communication in a scholarly, journalistic, partner, educational or professional context, please attribute the work accurately to BE(YOU)FULL CIC or BE(YOU)FULL as appropriate and link to the original page where possible.
Citation of a page, report or public resource is not the same as permission to reproduce full graphics, worksheets, images, campaign visuals, substantial extracts, report layouts or downloadable materials.
Publicly visible does not mean freely reusable
A work may be visible online for public information, educational, reporting, outreach, community, archival or documentary purposes while still requiring permission for reproduction, redistribution, republication, adaptation, course-pack use, partner-pack use, training use, campaign use, commercial use or machine use.
Where a specific page or asset is published under separate terms, those terms will govern that asset. Otherwise, the default position is that permission should be requested for reuse beyond lawful viewing, linking, brief quotation or other use expressly permitted by law.
7. AI, automated extraction and machine use
Unless explicitly authorised in writing, original BE(YOU)FULL CIC programme materials, reports, worksheets, educational resources, page visuals, campaign materials, diagrams, graphics, metadata, structured content and other original materials published on this website may not be used for AI training, machine learning training, dataset construction, model fine-tuning, embedding, retrieval-augmented generation systems, automated summarisation products, synthetic derivative generation or large-scale automated extraction beyond ordinary search indexing and lawful technical access necessary to display public webpages.
Training and dataset use
Original BE(YOU)FULL CIC reports, worksheets, educational resources, graphics, project visuals, event materials, campaign content, captions, summaries and other protected materials may not be scraped, harvested or ingested to create AI training datasets or to train, fine-tune or improve commercial or internal AI systems without prior written permission.
Embedding, retrieval and derivative outputs
Original BE(YOU)FULL CIC materials may not be embedded, stored or processed for AI-driven retrieval, question-answering, synthetic publication, derivative generation, automated educational products, automated community tools or other machine-led systems in a way that reproduces, exploits or materially substitutes for the original work without permission.
Ordinary search visibility remains distinct
Nothing in this policy is intended to prevent ordinary indexing by search engines or standard discovery features generated in accordance with normal web protocols. Search visibility should not be interpreted as a waiver of rights or consent for commercial AI reuse.

9. Frequently asked questions
Can a school, partner, charity or public body use a BE(YOU)FULL CIC resource if it credits the source?
Not automatically. Attribution does not replace permission where permission is required. If you want to reproduce a BE(YOU)FULL CIC worksheet, report graphic, original image, toolkit page, event visual or other protected asset in a workshop, training deck, programme pack, report or publication, request permission first.
Can I cite a BE(YOU)FULL CIC page, report or public resource in a dissertation, article, presentation or professional discussion?
Yes, in many cases you may cite or discuss BE(YOU)FULL CIC pages, public reports or public-interest materials with proper attribution and lawful quotation. However, citation is different from reproducing full graphics, worksheets, report layouts, images, substantial extracts or downloadable resources.
Can a partner organisation adapt a BE(YOU)FULL CIC resource for its own programme or internal delivery?
Not necessarily. Even where the use is charitable, educational or community-based, rights may still subsist in the original structure, expression, layout, graphics, worksheets, written resource or visual asset. If a partner wants to adapt or reproduce BE(YOU)FULL CIC materials beyond ordinary citation or linking, it should request permission first.
Does this page function as the acquireLicensePage for selected BE(YOU)FULL CIC images?
Yes, where the relevant image metadata, structured data or rights notices point to this page as the applicable rights, licensing or usage reference. In that context, this page is intended to explain how permissions or licensing requests can be made and what information should be provided.
Can BE(YOU)FULL CIC materials be used for AI training, fine-tuning or dataset construction?
No, not unless prior written permission has been granted. This applies to original BE(YOU)FULL CIC reports, worksheets, educational resources, graphics, page visuals, project materials, metadata and other original materials published on the site unless a different written licence is expressly stated.
