But I agree that people need to respect copyright, that is why I
included copyright links for each data source.

That says the word is protected from people trying to make money

I'm not asking for money or endorsing any product

The site is aimed at encouraging people to investigate data about
Anzacs, so it is much like writing a book about WW1 with Anzac in the title.

It appears quite OK to register an Anzac domain and use it for Anzac
commemorative material.  I wouldn't use it as my email address, on the
other hand, as well as violating the regulations, it would be completely
inappropriate.
