Linking to another website

Before linking to or framing a third party website, a person should review it for any prohibition on linking or framing. If linking is permitted with conditions, those conditions should be adhered to, as you may be making representations about another site inadvertently.

Hypertext linking to or framing a third party website that includes copyright infringing material may constitute an endorsement or re-publication of the infringing material and expose the website owner to liability under copyright law. Hypertext linking to pages deep within other sites and the use of frames on a website can raise issues of liability under copyright and trade practices legislation. See Cooper v Universal Music Pty Ltd [2006] FCAFC 187; (2006) 156 FCR 380.
