What is Copyright? “The exclusive right to produce or reproduce (copy), to perform in public, or to publish an original literary or artistic work.” Duhaime's Law Dictionary Almost everything created privately and originally after April 1, 1989 is copyrighted and protected whether it has a notice or not.

© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. But…But... Just because something is on the Web or posted to Usenet does not mean it is not copyright protected. Even if something is sent to you via email, it does not mean it is free for you to use. You should assume a work is copyrighted and may not be copied, unless you know otherwise.

What is “fair use”? Sec. 107 of the Fair Use Provision of the Copyright Act states: “Limitations on exclusive right: Fair use. Notwithstanding the provisions of sections 106 and 106A, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright.”

“In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include - –the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes...”

13
© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved.

© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. Future Uses Beyond Fair Use If there is a possibility that a project could result in broader dissemination [for instance, publication on the Internet], whether or not as a commercial product, individuals should take steps to obtain permissions during the development process rather than waiting until after completion of the project.

Obtaining Permission When You Need it Getting Permission http://www.utsystem.edu/OGC/IntellectualProperty/permissn.htm http://www.utsystem.edu/OGC/IntellectualProperty/permissn.htm Copyright Permission Form Letter http://www.utc.edu/Teaching-Resource-Center/copy_per.html Obtaining Permissions http://www.cetus.org/fair7.html
25
© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. Remember... These are guidelines, not laws. However, realize that the further you venture from these guidelines, the more likely you are to be outside of “fair use.”
26
© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. What About Software? Use of software does not fall under fair use! Public or private educational institutions are not exempt from the software copyright laws. When you purchase software, you are only purchasing a license to use the software – you don’t own it.
27
© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. But I can make copies for my own use…right? Anyone who purchases a license for a single copy of software has the right to load it onto a single computer and to make another copy "for archival purposes only." Any other use than “archival” must be approved by the copyright owner.
28
© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. Unless you have specific permission from the copyright owner… It is illegal to Purchase a single user license and load it onto multiple computers or a server, Download copyrighted software from the Internet or bulletin boards, or Load the software your school purchased onto your computer at home.
29
© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. What About Shareware? Shareware is software that is passed out freely for evaluation purposes only. You are allowed to try it out before you pay for it. Evaluation time is usually 30 days. If you wish to keep the software program, then you must pay to keep your evaluation copy. Shareware is often fairly inexpensive.
30
© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. Freeware is Free…Right? Freeware is also covered by copyright laws and subject to the conditions defined by the holder of the copyright. –You can distribute freeware, but not make any money on it. –You can modify and build other software programs based on the freeware, but those “new” programs cannot be sold for profit.
31
© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. Only Public Domain Software is Truly “Free” Copyright rights have been relinquished. There are no distribution restrictions. You can modify the original software and build new software. You can sell your modified software.
32
© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. Why Should Students Follow Software Copyright Laws? You should set a good example for others. Future software can only be developed for a reasonable price if the software firm/developer receives payment for its efforts. And then there is the matter of penalties...
33
© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. Penalties For the unauthorized use and copying of software, penalties include: –Fines up to the actual amount of damages to the copyright holder, or –Statutory damages up to $100,000 per infringed work where the court finds there was willful infringement. –And if guilty under the criminal sections of the law: Up to one year imprisonment and/or Fines up to $25,000
34
© 1999 Intel. All rights reserved. Penalties For the unauthorized reproduction or distribution of 10 or more copies of software with a total retail value of $2500, penalties include: –Imprisonment for up to six years, and/or –Fines up to $250,000 Under the NET Act, signed into law on December 16, 1997, a person who willfully infringes on copyrighted material worth at least $1,000 could be subject to criminal prosecution, even if he/she does not profit from the activity.
