DIGITAL COPYRIGHT PROTECTION – WIPO Proof

The copyright belongs to the author of the work, who is authorized to decide on the exploitation of the work and to gain financial benefits from it. Simply put – you have the right to decide on what you create. The copyright understood in this way arises automatically upon creation of each work and is not subject to registration. However, the fact that literary work, graphic design or computer program was created in a particular form at a specific point in time is often difficult to prove. For example, if you write a book and put it in a proverbial drawer, how shall you prove that you had created it first, if it was stolen from you and now someone else claims that he is the author of it?
