Ownership of content

In creating an archive of energy knowledge and information, the EI seeks to provide access to a wide range of data and sources.

The EI goes to all reasonable efforts to contact original sources of content in order to gain permission to attach the PDFs or similar files to records on the Sites. Where applicable, the EI provides links to external content. These links are provided for a number of reasons, including for further information or other key source material; for background information; for useful practical information; for further informed comment. External websites are not under the editorial control of the EI and the EI takes no responsibility whatsoever for the contents. This is because the EI does not produce them or maintain/update them; the EI cannot change them; they can be changed without the EI’s knowledge or agreement. Links to external websites should not be seen as an endorsement of the website or the products, services or information offered by the owner of the website.
