  • If I use any content what I do not own or have permission to use.

I will not publish any Copyrighted material in my Magazine.

Defamation ACT 2013
This applies to anything what has repartition or makes profit. It means your content can not have a harmful effect of any kind what could cause loss profit and reparation.

In abided by this law, I will not create or publish defamations in my magazine.

Negligent Publication 

This law is in place to prevent harm to the audience of said content. If the publisher/author creates and publishes material what harms the audience then they are liable for losses such as health, profits, ect… This law applies heavenly towards DIY magazines, however they can cover themselves by putting “at your own risk”

In ordered to prevent Negligent Publication I will not publish anything what could be seen as negligence. I will also put disclaimer in my magazine.

Obscene Publications ACT 1959 and 1964

This law prevents extreme or absence content, which could deprave or corrupt the audience. 

In abided by this law, I will not create or  publish extreme and absence content in my magazine.

Ethical Issues

Ethical issues are those not covered by law, for example a hunting magazine could be seen as unethical

How you conduct interview and shoots would come under Ethical.

In productions and publication of my magazine I will avoid ethical issues
