Copyright is a legal right that seeks to protect original works of authorship (example: books, music, film, art). Generally, copyright protects original expression such as words or images. It does not protect facts and ideas, although it may protect the original words or images used to describe an idea.

Generally, trademark law seeks to prevent confusion among consumers about who provides or is affiliated with a product or service. 

Legacy contacts

A legacy contact is someone you choose to look after your account when you pass away. We strongly suggest setting a legacy contact so your account can be managed once you have gone.

A legacy contact can posthumously, accept friend requests on behalf of an account, link family members if this has not already taken place, and post pictures and documents in tribute. (My Blog)
