Thank you for your patience and understanding.

3. Content and Copyright
a. Who designed the website and logo?
The website and the logo was designed by Regina De Rozario. The website was based on a free template designed by Isnainidotcom, and the logo was based on initial designs provided by SAFE.
Regina also contributed in organizing, editing and gathering articles for the website's launch.
b. What's the focus of the website?
The website aims to provide information and resources that can help friends, parents, and family members of LGBTQ persons understand their loved ones better. We also want it to be a channel for sharing personal experiences on working or living with LGBTQ persons.
c. Where are your articles from?
Currently there are resources and articles that we found on the Internet which we find very helpful and inspiring. These are written by groups that may be similar to us. We have reproduced them here as a form of sharing, as some of these articles and resources may not be known to our readers.
We are currently working on several articles of our own.
d. Are your articles only in English?
We do have a small section on Resources in Chinese. We will be adding more articles there, and hopefully over time, we will be able to add some resources in Malay and Tamil too. Volunteers who are able to translate our English articles accurately into our other local languages are welcome to write in to us.
e. I would like to contribute an article. What kind of features are you looking for?
All contributions are on a volunteer basis. We are looking for articles that meet our focus (see 3b above). We are especially on the lookout for personal stories from parents, family members, friends, or acquaintances of gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender persons.
All contributions will be read and considered. However, they may be edited and will be published on our site at our discretion.
f. May I reproduce your articles, or logo on my own website, or blog, or publication?
Please write in to us with a link to your website, or details about your publication. Some of our articles are from third-party sources who own the copyright to their articles. Please do not reproduce those without their permission.
No part of the SAFE website, including its logo, is to be reproduced for commercial purposes without our written permission.
