Copyright Infringement

The two types of copyright infringement include:

• The primary or real act of copying copyrighted work, like copying music, art, or computer code and distributing it for profit.
• Secondary or infringing copyright without copying the protected work.

Nevertheless, sometimes only a part of the copyrighted work is infringed. In that case, the original owner must establish substantial taking or proof that the unauthorized individual has copied substantial part of the work. If the unauthorized person perceives that the work is copied from a varied source, it is considered copyright infringement. In case the writing language, errors and style are same as the copyrighted work, it works as evidence of copyright infringement as per law.

Original copyright holder must prove similarity in their work and that of the infringer to claim primary copyright infringement. However, if it is proved that both the works have been produced using the same source of research, it is not deemed copyright infringement.

Possible penalties for copyright infringement include loss or damage of actual profits made due to copyright infringement. You can protect yourself from such penalties by registering your creative production with the help of an expert who can help you with trademark or copyright registration.
