COPYRIGHTS AND RELATED RIGHTS

The term “copyright” typically refers to a licensing that allows unrestricted copying. Preventing unauthorized copying is a legal right. Copyright is a legal privilege granted to those who create literary works (such as written works and computer programme source codes), dramatic works (such as film and drama scripts), musical works (such as melodies), artistic works (such as paintings, photographs, architecture, and sculpture, etc.), sound recordings, motion pictures, broadcasts on television and radio, cable programmes, performances, etc. (The duration of copyright protection is the author’s lifetime plus 60 years following death.) Ideas alone are not protected; only the expression of ideas is protected by copyright. This means that ideas, concepts, practises, methods, and information itself are not protected by copyright; rather, only the form or mode of expression is protected.
