Reusing finfire research

You may share and adapt our research papers if you give credit and link back, and if your use is not commercial. Commercial use needs our written permission.

The finfire research papers are licensed under CC BY-NC 4.0 (Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International). This page is a plain-English summary, not legal advice, and it does not replace the license: the official legal code is what applies.

What you may do

• Share: copy and pass on a paper, its figures and its tables, in any medium or format.
• Adapt: translate, excerpt, remix or build on them.

On these conditions:

• Give credit: name the paper and the finfire Quantitative Research Series, link back to the paper, and link to the license.
• Say if you changed anything, and do not suggest that finfire endorses you or your use.
• Keep it non-commercial: the license allows uses that are not primarily intended for or directed towards commercial advantage or monetary compensation. If you are not sure whether yours is, ask us first.

What needs our written permission

Commercial use, for example in something you sell or in advertising. Write to hello@finfire.org before you use it, say what you want to do, and wait for a yes.

What the license covers

Everything under finfire's research section: the text of each paper, its figures and charts, its header graphic, the Reddit summary, the saved input files that let you repeat a result, and the result tables.

What it does not cover

• The finfire calculators and the server engines behind them.
• The source code.
• The finfire name, logo and visual identity.
• Third-party data, which stays under its owners' terms.

All rights in these are reserved. The Terms of Use say the same in section 5.
