Free Copyright Notice

A copyright notice is principally intended to assist with assertions of copyright infringement. Historically, a copyright notice could be a prerequisite of copyright protection. This is no longer the case (at least in the most significant jurisdictions). Nonetheless, a notice will help in educating potential copyright infringers, and may make it harder to rely upon an innocent infringement defense.

The free copyright notice covers the following:

• Ownership of copyright
• Copyright license
• Data mining
• Permissions
• Enforcement of copyright
• Infringing material
• This copyright notice
