Copyright
Copyright ownership is a complex area of the law and is often misunderstood. Get advice from a firm that understands the intricacies of Canadian copyright law.
Copyright grants and protects exclusive rights, including the right to reproduce or display all or any substantial part of a work. Original material can include art, music, software, digital content, databases and much more.
Work subject to copyright might also contain confidential information. This type of material may need more steps to protect it with security measures and proper non-disclosure agreements.
