Section 107 contains a list of the various purposes for which the reproduction of a particular work may be considered fair, such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Section 107 also sets out four factors to be considered in determining whether or not a particular use is fair.

- The purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes
- The nature of the copyrighted work
- The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole
- The effect of the use upon the potential market for, or value of, the copyrighted work
I) Otaku Nuts tries to use their own 100% raw and genius original creations whenever possible, but sometimes we will post photos produced by others. If in the case you are displeased that we have used any of your work, do not hesitate to leave a comment, it can be nice or aggressive, just let us know you want the image taken down and we will willingly comply.
II) We credit when known source is available. Writers of Otaku Nuts know exactly what it's like to have work stolen. We share your rage. That's why we always credit when possible at the bottom of a post. If we have miscredited or used a photo we weren't sure of its source, just leave a comment and let us know!
III) We do NOT link to illegal downloads or sites that do. It's not a moral thing, it's a we-don't-want-to-be-sued thing. If you are looking for a reliable source to watch or read anything, your question will be answered in the comments section.
IV) We do not profit from any material that is not ours. In the event you're unsure of your photo being used, be rest assured we do not make a profit from your blood, sweat and manly tears. It's purely for recreational use only.
