Links to the BNF website

In line with established Internet usage, any external web site may provide a hyperlink to the homepage of the BNF website (http://bnf.org) without requesting permission. However this should respect the publishers' intellectual property rights, in particular relating to the BNF name, logo or copyright. Hyperlinks should not frame our site or incorporate pieces of it into a different site or product.

A link to the BNF website must be used for information only, and not for the promotion of any organisation, product or service. A link to the BNF website does not, and should not, imply any association between the BNF and the owner of the linking site.

Links to the BNF web site should be to the BNF home page (http://bnf.org) or to complete pages that can be reached via navigation from the BNF home page. Links should not be made to an individual constituent of a page, for example text, picture or graphic. Our preference is that links should not be made direct to files that are available for download, for example pdf files, but to the web page from where the files can be downloaded.

Any individual or organisation wishing to link to pages on the BNF website other than the homepage are asked to contact us to discuss their plans and to ensure that their proposed use of the service is adequately supported and licensed. Such linking may be subject to access control procedures.
