What is copyright, and what does it protect?

Copyright is a legal protection granted to creators of original works like literature, music, art, films, software, and architectural designs. It provides exclusive rights, allowing creators to control how their work is used, whether it’s reproducing, distributing, performing, displaying, or licensing the work. These rights prevent unauthorized use, ensuring the creator benefits from their effort and creativity.

However, copyright does not extend to ideas, facts, methods, or concepts. It only safeguards the tangible expression of these ideas, such as a written book, a recorded song, or a completed painting. The aim of copyright is to foster innovation and creativity by giving creators control while balancing public access over time.

  • Copyright protects original creative works like books, music, and art.
  • Trademarks protect symbols, names, slogans, or designs that identify and distinguish a brand, product, or service.
  • Patents protect new inventions, processes, or designs, granting exclusive rights to make, use, or sell the invention for a specific period.
    Each serves a unique purpose in intellectual property law.

Copyright can protect a wide range of creative works, including:

  • Literary works (e.g., books, articles, poems)
  • Musical works and lyrics
  • Dramatic works and accompanying music
  • Choreographic works
  • Visual arts (e.g., paintings, sculptures, graphics)
  • Motion pictures and audiovisual works
  • Sound recordings
  • Architectural designs
    It does not cover ideas, procedures, methods, or unrecorded works.

The duration of copyright depends on when the work was created:

  • For works created after January 1, 1978: The copyright lasts for the life of the author plus 70 years.
  • For works created by corporations (e.g., “works for hire”): Copyright lasts 95 years from publication or 120 years from creation, whichever comes first.
  • For works published before 1978: The rules vary based on the specific circumstances.

Yes, your U.S. copyright is generally recognized in many countries under international agreements like the Berne Convention, which includes over 180 member nations. This agreement ensures that works created in one member country are protected in others without requiring separate registration.

However, enforcement and specific rights may vary by country. If you need stronger protection or local enforcement, you may consider registering your work in specific jurisdictions. Consulting an expert in international copyright law can help ensure your rights are upheld globally.

Yes, copyright can be transferred, sold, or assigned to another party through a written agreement. This process allows the original copyright holder to grant another individual or organization certain rights, such as the ability to reproduce, distribute, or publicly display the work. Transfers can be partial or complete, depending on the terms of the agreement, which should clearly outline the scope and duration of the transferred rights.

In some cases, the original creator may retain moral rights, even after transferring ownership. Moral rights can include the right to be acknowledged as the creator or to prevent modifications that might harm the integrity of the work. These rights vary by jurisdiction but often remain inalienable. For clarity and protection, it’s advisable to consult a legal expert when drafting or finalizing a copyright transfer agreement, ensuring all parties’ interests are safeguarded.
