Name.com does not support content that constitutes copyright or trademark infringement. However, in most cases, the text on the Wiki falls under "fair use." Fair use, codified as 17 U.S.C. § 107, explains that some use of copyrighted material is permitted without consent. This exception to copyright law is recognized statutorily. Because the Wiki (1) is educational (2) does not use content for the same purpose in which it was created, and (3) does not exploit the content – the text typically constitutes as fair use.
Personality Rights
The Wiki may contain images of identifiable people. In some jurisdictions the use of images of individuals, either living or deceased, is restricted by laws regarding personality rights. You are solely responsible for ensuring that you do not infringe another individual’s personality rights.
