Introduction to copyright
Any time you produce a concept on a page you become the owner of that concept and are entitled to the exclusive right to use it. Though you are considered to be the copyright holder, you can assign or sell your copyright, though that would need to be done by written agreement.
This resource explains how copyright law works and who is considered to own copyright in any particular case. A copyright infringement takes place when you reproduce a plan or part of a plan without the copyright owner’s permission. The resource contains advice on how to avoid making this mistake.
Also included are a series of FAQs to help you make sensible decisions about your intellectual property and that of others.
