What kinds of things are copyrightable?

In order for material to be copyrightable, it must be original and must be in a fixed medium.

Only material that originated with the author can support a copyright. Items from the public domain which appear in a work, as well as work borrowed from others, cannot be the subject of an infringement claim. Also, certain stock material might not be copyrightable, such as footage that indicates a location like the standard shots of San Francisco in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. Also exempted are stock characters like the noisy punk rocker who gets the Vulcan death grip in Star Trek IV.

The requirement that works be in a fixed medium leaves out certain forms of expression, most notably choreography and oral performances such as speeches. For instance, if I perform a Klingon death wail in a local park, my performance is not copyrightable. However, if I film the performance, then the film is copyrightable.

Single words and short phrases are generally not protected by copyright, even when the name has been "coined" or newly-created by the mark owner. Logos that include original design elements can be protected under copyright or under trademark. Otherwise, words, phrases and titles may be protected only by trademark.

What is a valid copyright license?

A valid license is an agreement where the copyright owner retains his or her ownership of the rights involved, but allows a third party to exercise some or all of those rights without fear of a copyright infringement suit. A license is preferred over an assignment of rights where the copyright holder wishes to maintain some ownership over the rights, or wishes to exercise continuing control over how the third party uses the copyright holder's rights.

What is an exclusive right in intellectual property?

Most governments recognize a bundle of exclusive rights in relation to works of authorship, inventions, and identifications of origin. These rights are sometimes spoken of under the umbrella term "intellectual property". An example is copyright, which grants a copyright holder a negative right to exclude others from exploiting his or her artistic or creative work. The position is generally similar with patents and trademarks. Exclusive rights arise from a grant of patent or registration of a trademark, while in other cases such rights may arise through use (eg. copyright or common-law trademark).

Holding an intellectual property right generally means that the rights holder can maintain certain controls in relation to the subject matter in which the IP right subsists. For example, a person who buys a copy of a computer program which is subject to copyright may use the software for personal use, but will probably be prohibited from creating or distributing copies of that software, subject to certain exceptions such as fair use or fair dealing, which vary widely from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

Does copyright protect facts?

No. Copyright protects only original expression, not discovered facts. Creative selection and arrangement of facts is protected, but you can take the basic facts and rearrange them without infringing copyright. Thus the publishers of a telephone book cannot sue an online phone book publisher for copyright infringement, even if it took the first publishers considerable effort to collect the listings.

What may be copyrighted?

In order to be copyrightable, a work must be

1. fixed in a tangible medium of expression; and

2. original.

Copyrights do not protect ideas, procedures, processes, systems, methods
of operation, concepts, principles, or discoveries: they only protect physical
representations. 17
U.S.C.

What is "willful copyright infringement"?

Willful infringement occurs when the infringer knows that the material they are copying is protected by copyright. In many cases, the penalties for copyright infringement are greater if the infringement is willful.

May I freely copy from federal government documents?

Yes. Works produced by the US government, or any government agency or person acting in a government capacity, are in the public domain. So are the texts of legal cases and statutes from state or federal government. Private contractors working for the government, however, can license or transfer copyrights to the US government, and those copyrights remain enforceable.

What is "proprietary" material?

"Proprietary" indicates that a party, or proprietor, exercises private ownership, control or use over an item of property, usually to the exclusion of other parties.

Where a party, holds or claims proprietary interests in relation to certain types of property (eg. a creative literary work, or software), that property may also be the subject of intellectual property law (eg. copyright or patents).

What is criminal copyright infringement?

As defined by 15 USC section 506, criminal copyright infringement occurs if a person willfully infringes upon a copyright and it was done under any of the following circumstances: 1) for commercial advantage or private financial gain; 2) where the copies have a retail value of at least $1,000 and were made within a 180-day period; or 3) by distributing copyrighted work where the infringer knew or should have known the work was intended for public distribution. If found guilty, the infringer can be imprisoned for up to 10 years, depending on the type of infringement

Do I need to register my copyright?

You get copyright automatically when you create a work and "fix" or record it. Registration with the Copyright Office is not a prerequisite, but it can give you additional protection: you can only get statutory damages for infringement of a registered copyright. A U.S. author must also register before filing a copyright lawsuit.

Does copyright protect words or short phrases?

No. Names, titles, and short phrases are not subject to copyright protection. These are not deemed to be "original works of authorship" under the Copyright Act. Names may be protected by trademark, in some instances. See the  FAQ for more information.

Where can I find the text of the U.S. Copyright Act?

The federal Copyright Act may be found at http://www.loc.gov/copyright/title17/.

What is the World Intellectual Property Organization

The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) is one of the specialized agencies of the United Nations. WIPO was created in 1967 with the stated purpose of encouraging creative activity and promoting the protection of intellectual property throughout the world.

What is misappropriation of copyrighted material?

One has misappropriated copyrighted material if he or she has acquired, disclosed, or used the material without the permission/license from the holder of the copyrighted material, where such activities were done through improper means or in breach of an obligation of confidentiality or non-use.
