Copyright is the exclusive legal right of the owner of an intellectual property to control how their original work is used. An original work of authorship is automatically protected by copyright from the moment it is created. Copyright protects literary works, music, images, films, sound recordings, and other types of creative works. To receive further protection, the copyright can be registered with the appropriate government agency. Placing a copyright notice on works with the symbol ©, year, and owner's name can help deter unauthorized copying. Copyright exceptions allow certain uses such as titles, names, and short phrases without permission. Copyright law provides both economic and moral rights to creators and is meant to protect their creative works.
