Copyright is the exclusive right to reproduce, publicize or make adaptations to literary, musical or artistic work. As a Copyright owner you have the right to prevent any unauthorized use of these exclusive rights. Unlawful use of copyrighted material is widespread on the Internet, especially the use of texts, images, software and music. Even the content of your website, for example, is protected by copyright.
Texts
The content of your corporate website is protected by Copyright. No person is allowed to use large amounts of text without your authorization. Other companies or individuals using your content can be tracked down and readily stopped.
Images
The Internet is a perfect medium to show and share pictures and even entire movies. Especially those featuring celebrities. But also popular commercials are being used, often in a parody which uses false information that damages the company’s reputation. This defamation marks the spot where freedom of speech becomes a cause of action. Pretection helps protect your reputation and image by halting these infringements on your Intellectual Property.
Music
Offering music on the Internet without your authorization (if you are the artist or composer) is not allowed. Although some distributors are not easy to stop, others may not be as hard to handle. Given the large amount of music offered on the Internet stopping those that can be handled may have a big influence on your source of income and reputation.
Software
The digital distribution of software, such as games, is just as popular as that of music. The possibilities and results to stop illegal distributors from selling your software on the Internet are the same as mentioned above and may result in an effective way to boost your sales or protect your trade secrets
