What is actually canon and a alternate universe?

I am having alittle trouble understanding what is "supposed" to be canon besides the movies. Where do all the games, comics, and novels come into place ?

what is considered an alternate universe by us fans? and the people making star wars?
what is considered canon? or fanon?
what are the legends considered?

I personally do not give a crap what disney says is canon and what isn't, before they took over I considered most of the starwars universe as the actual story, and I still do personally.

I do not really consider any of it an alternate universe, except maybe a couple of games.

Alt Universe= DS endings in games, The Star Wars series, Infinity Storylines

Canon= Books/Comics that are coming out now unless under a Legends label, movies, TCW and Rebels

Legends= Anything prior to Disney purchasing Star Wars

Not canon, but anything from Legends can be borrowed in actual Canon. Any characters, names, places, even whole plot ideas.

But then your question is kind of meaningless...
