Copyright and DMCA
What you may reuse, what needs permission, and how to report infringement.
Who owns what is here
The articles, design and code on brokenbonetheory.com/ are the work of Broken Bone Theory unless a page says otherwise. They are protected by copyright.

- Print or save a page for your own use, or to share with a patient, student or friend
- Cite us in academic or journalistic work in the normal way
What needs permission
- Republishing a whole article, or most of one
- Translating an article and posting it elsewhere
- Using our writing in a commercial product
- Rewriting an article closely enough that it follows our structure
Ask at [email protected]. We usually say yes to educational and clinical use.
If we have used your work
We check sources and credit them. If you believe we have used your material without permission or credit, tell us and we will fix it quickly. We would rather correct something than argue about it.

- Your physical or electronic signature

We act on valid notices promptly and remove or disable the material in question.
If you think we removed something wrongly
If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake, send a counter notice with your signature, the material and where it was, a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe it was removed by mistake or misidentification, and your contact details with consent to the jurisdiction of your local federal court.
Repeat infringement
We end the access of anyone who repeatedly infringes copyright.
Using our name
“Broken Bone Theory” as a site name, and our design, should not be used in a way that suggests we endorse you or are connected to you.
