Well, I don't know much about Hanzi, but I really don't think it has been copyrighted. Besides, I can't remember that any conlanger has ever been sued for using Latin or Cyrillic script for his conlang, so I don't think this will be the case with Hanzi. In order words, go ahead! And always feel invited to share you conlang with us...
