Content use by the sponsor

Sponsored content

Sponsored content includes any content that has received funding from an external source for its creation and publication. Sponsored content is clearly marked with the sponsor’s logo, and a statement saying that the content has been supported by the sponsor at the bottom of the page. This can include content produced in-house, but in guided collaboration with the sponsor, for instance infographics, webinars, and eBooks. Subject to the intellectual property rights in the logo and name of the sponsor, which remains the property of the sponsor, all content, whether sponsored or not, remains the intellectual property of Taylor & Francis.

Content use and rehosting

Once the promotional period of the ‘content’ is complete (standard time of four weeks post launch date or any other length of time as notified by Taylor & Francis) the sponsor can use, reproduce, distribute, publish and promote the ‘content’ on their own website and channels, provided the following parameters are met:

  • All use of content should include appropriate attribution to RegMedNet as the original source.
  • Rehosted content must feature alongside a reference and hyperlink back to the initial publication on RegMedNet. Example statement: This material was initially created by RegMedNet and the original version can be found here: (link to material – this may feature as a hyperlink from the word “here”). 
  • All content remains unchanged and retains the RegMedNet logo. The sponsor can make reasonable edits for formatting purposes (e.g resizing for different platforms) provided that the original context and integrity of the content are unchanged.

Such channels may include, but are not limited to:

  • Websites;
  • Social media platforms;
  • Marketing materials;
  • Presentations;
  • Advertisements;
  • Client communications;
  • Educational or promotional materials; and
  • Internal and external corporate communications.

The sponsor may exercise these rights without requiring further permission from RegMedNet.
