Catholic Gallery respects the intellectual property rights of authors, publishers, artists, photographers, and other copyright holders. We also ask our visitors to respect the copyright and usage rights associated with the material available through this website.
Catholic Gallery contains both original material created for the website and content obtained from or made available through other sources. The copyright status and permitted use of content may therefore differ depending on the particular material.
1. Catholic Gallery Original Content
Original content created by Catholic Gallery may include articles, reflections, devotional writings, graphics, artwork, website design elements, descriptions, and other materials created specifically for the website.
Unless otherwise stated, such original content is protected by applicable copyright laws.
You may view, read, and share links to Catholic Gallery content for personal, devotional, educational, and non-commercial purposes.
Please do not reproduce, republish, modify, distribute, or commercially exploit substantial portions of original Catholic Gallery content without appropriate permission, except where such use is permitted by applicable law.
2. Public Domain Content
Catholic Gallery uses a number of texts and resources that are in the public domain.
Public-domain material is not claimed as original copyrighted work by Catholic Gallery. Such material may be used by others in accordance with applicable law.
The fact that public-domain material is presented or formatted on Catholic Gallery does not give Catholic Gallery ownership of the underlying public-domain work.
However, original additions, formatting, commentary, graphics, or other original material created by Catholic Gallery may have their own applicable copyright protection.
3. Bible Texts
The Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible is used for Bible and Daily Mass Reading resources provided directly through Catholic Gallery.
The Douay-Rheims Bible is a public-domain work. Catholic Gallery does not claim ownership of the underlying public-domain text.
Catholic Gallery may also provide certain Bible reading resources obtained through third-party services. Where content is supplied by an external service, the copyright, attribution, and usage conditions applicable to that content remain in effect.
For example, certain New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) readings are provided through an external service and are accompanied by the applicable attribution and disclaimer displayed with those readings.
4. Prayers, Quotes, Catechism and Other Resources
Catholic Gallery provides a variety of Catholic prayers, quotations, catechetical resources, historical materials, devotional resources, and other content.
The copyright status of individual materials may vary. Some may be original Catholic Gallery content, some may be in the public domain, and some may originate from third-party sources.
Where an author, source, publisher, copyright holder, or attribution is identified, that information should be retained when the material is shared or reproduced.
Catholic Gallery does not claim ownership of material belonging to third parties merely because it is published, referenced, quoted, or made available through the website.
5. Images, Artwork and Galleries
Catholic Gallery contains photographs, artwork, religious images, graphics, and other visual resources.
Some visual material may be created specifically for Catholic Gallery, while other material may originate from public-domain or third-party sources.
You should not assume that every image appearing on the website is available for unrestricted reproduction or commercial use.
Where an image includes a copyright notice, attribution, source, or other usage information, those conditions should be respected.

When sharing or quoting Catholic Gallery’s original content, please provide appropriate attribution and retain any copyright or source information associated with the material.

Unless a particular resource states otherwise, Catholic Gallery content may be accessed and used for personal, devotional, educational, and non-commercial purposes.
This does not grant permission to reproduce or redistribute third-party content where such use is restricted by the respective copyright holder or applicable licence.
Commercial use, large-scale reproduction, systematic redistribution, or republishing substantial portions of Catholic Gallery’s original content requires appropriate permission unless otherwise permitted by applicable law.
