Corporate Copyright Compliance Plan

Managing copyright issues across a corporation often is about managing risk, the risk of employees committing copyright infringement or plagiarizing someone else’s content and presenting it as if it were created by the company.

There are important copyright issues every company, regardless of size, needs to consider, such as ~

  • Does the company have a copyright compliance policy?
  • Does your company training plan ensure that employees are training on the appropriately using other people’s content – WITH PERMISSION?
  • Has the company obtained copyright clearance agreements for the use of other people’s content and is complying with the terms of these agreements?
  • Is the company protecting its own content from unauthorized use by others?

Copyrighted Website Content

Do your content producers consider that online content, including images, graphics, and content found through online searches are most often copyrighted, even if there is nothing obvious to indicate it is protected under US copyright law?

Also, have you considered the value of the online content your company is creating? Have you initiated procedures to protect it, and have you educated your staff about these procedures?

Copyright Clearance Procedures

Do your content producers know when content ownership is an issue, know how to determine content ownership, and know how to request permission for content use?
