Copyrights Rights derived from any original literary, dramatic, musical or artistic

work can be registered from the moment this work is created.

Generally, it is "the right to copy", but also gives the copyright holdertheright to be credited for the work.

Copyright is automatic upon creation. It is good idea to have your

original work witnessed.

an agreement between those parties.
