Copyright/DMCA Policy

Why is registration of copyright essential?

Copyright registration safeguards authors’ creative works, such as music, books, manuscripts, software, films, fashion designs, and websites, from being duplicated and used for commercial purposes without their permission, resulting in significant financial loss.

Copyrights fight unauthorised copying or taking someone else’s work without paying for it. The copyright laws make it plain that no individual shall be entitled to Copyright or other comparable rights in any work, whether published or unpublished, unless the terms of the Act are followed. Copyright registration for creative works protects your work from being stolen or duplicated and offers you a legal guarantee over it.

Copyright registration provides your creative work legal status, converting it to Intellectual Property and granting you exclusive legal rights to it.

What are the works protected under copyright law?

Apart from books, literary work includes computer programmes and databases.

Songs, recorded dialogues, and other audio recordings are sound recordings.

Films, Videos, and Cartoon Films are all examples of cinematograph films. It’s a good idea to include creative rights in the various agreements between parties right away.

A painting, a sculpture, a drawing such as a map, chart, or diagram, an engraving, a photograph, architecture/artistic craftsmanship, and dramatic work are examples of artistic work.

“musical work” refers to both staff notation and written music.
