Internationaler Gewerblicher Rechtsschutz und Urheberrecht II
Teil 7 - Copyright Contracts
| The US Copyright Law has only rudimental provisions for copyright contracts. The copyright contract law distinguishes between transfer of ownership– meaning the entire copyright is transferred to a different owner – and the licensing– meaning that the author allows contractually a third party to use his work (i.e. for publication) while the author remains owner of the copyright. The licensing is nearly non-regulated (exemption in 17 U.S.C. §§ 203, 205); therefore solely the general contractual law is applicable but the provisions of 17 U.S.C. § 204 can be considered additionally. |
