Copyright

Copyright aims at providing protection to authors on their creations. Works covered by copyright include, but are not limited to, literary works, such as novels, poems and plays, databases, films, musical compositions, choreography, paintings, photographs, architecture, maps and computer programs. Copyright protection is obtained automatically as soon as a work is created without any need for registration or other formalities.
