Azawad elhelyezkedése Maliban

Azawad egy a berber tuareg lázadók által kikiáltott de facto állam volt Észak-Maliban. Az Azawad Felszabadításáért Nemzeti Mozgalom 2012. április 6-án kiáltotta ki a függetlenségét, majd decemberben elismerték az ország területi egységét. A 2013 júniusában megkötött béke hatására a tuaregek nagyobb autonómiát kaptak.

Az azawadi alkotások Mali szabályai alá esnek.

• A collective work is a work created by a number of authors at the initiative and under the authority of a natural or legal person who or which publishes the work in his name and in which the contributions of the authors who participated in its creation merge in the whole work so that it is impossible to identify the various contributions and their authors.^{[2006 Art.1]} The publisher holds the moral and economic rights in a collective work. The economic rights in a collective work are protected for 70 years from the end of the year in which it was published.^{[2006 Art.55]}

A lap összefoglalja a Burkina Fasó-i szerzői jogi szabályozásnak a Commons szempontjából releváns részét. A feltöltendő fájlnak mind Burkina Fasó-ban, mind az Egyesült Államokban közkincsnek vagy szabad licencűnek kell lennie. Kétség esetén a területi jogszabályok az irányadók.

Háttér

Burkina Faso a 19. század végén francia uralom alatt állt, ekkor a Volta folyó menti pozíciója miatt Felső-Voltának nevezték. 1958-ban az állam Felső-Voltai Köztársaság néven önrendelkezési jogot kapott, 1960. augusztus 5-én pedig független lett. Az ország jelenlegi nevét 1984-ben vette fel.

Burkina Faso 1963. augusztus 19-e óta a Berni Egyezmény, 1995. június 3-a óta a Kereskedelmi Világszervezet, 2002. március 6-a óta pedig a Bangui Egyezmény tagja.

A 2018-as adatok szerint az ENSZ Szellemi Jogi Világszervezete (WIPO) a Burkina Fasó-i szerzői jog tekintetében az 1999-es Law No. 032-99/AN of December 22, 1999, on the Protection of Literary and Artistic Property törvényt tekinti irányadónak, melynek szövege megtalálható a WIPO Lex adatbázisban.

Általános szabályok

Az 1999-es törvény szerint:

• Az alkotások gazdasági joga a szerző halálától számított 70. évig áll fenn.^{[1999 Article 34]}
• Közös munka szerzői joga az utoljára elhunyt alkotó halálától számított 70. évig áll fenn.^{[1999 Article 35]}
• Ismeretlen vagy álnéven dolgozó szerző alkotása a létrehozástól vagy közzétételtől számított 70 évig érvényes (amelyik későbbi).^{[1999 Article 36]}
• Gyűjtemények, audiovizuális alkotások vagy rádióműsorok a létrehozástól számított 70 évig, vagy a közzétételtől számított 70 évig (ha az elkészüléstől számított 70 éven belül publikálták) védettek.^{[1999 Article 37]}
• Iparművészeti alkotások jogvédelme a létrehozástól számított 30. évig érvényes.^{[1999 Article 38]}

A jogvédelem nem terjed ki a törvényhozó, adminisztratív és bírói szervek kiadványaira, valamint ezek hivatalos fordításaira.^{[1999 Article 8]}

Panorámaszabadság

   A panorámaszabadságról szóló törvény tiltja az „építészeti, szépművészeti, fotografikus vagy iparművészeti alkotások […] kereskedelmi felhasználását”; azonban ez csak akkor érvényes, ha „az alkotásról készült fotó az elsődleges tárgy a képen”, így a véletlen megjelenítés nem tiltott.^{[1999 Article 25]}

• In derogation of the author’s rights, reproducing, broadcasting or communicating to the public by cable an image of a work of architecture, a work of fine art, a photographic work or a work of applied art which is permanently located in a place open to the public shall be permitted, except where the image of the work is the main subject of such reproduction or communication and where it is used for commercial purposes.^{[1999 Article 25]}

This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Ivory Coast (Côte d'Ivoire) relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Ivory Coast must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Ivory Coast and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Ivory Coast, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Background

The Côte d'Ivoire, or Ivory Coast, became a protectorate of France in 1843 and was consolidated as a French colony in 1893. The country achieved independence in 1960.

Ivory Coast has been a member of the Berne Convention since 1 January 1962, the Bangui Agreement since 7 February 1982 and the World Trade Organization since 1 January 1995.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Law No. 2016-555 of July 26, 2016, on Copyright and Related Rights as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Ivory Coast. WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database. This replaced Law No 96-564 of 25 July 1996 on the protection of intellectual works and the rights of authors, performers and producers of sound and video. The 2016 law abrogated any previous provisions contrary to those of the 2016 law, and in particular abrogated Law No. 96-564 of 25 July 1996.^{[2016-555 Article 151]}

General rules

Under the 1996 law, copyright in Ivory Coast (Côte d'Ivoire) lasted for 99 years after the death of the author for works published within the lifetime of the author, and 99 years from publication for photographic or audiovisual works or works of applied art; anonymous or pseudonymous works; and posthumous works. Ivory Coast had the rule of the shorter term.^{[96-564 Article 45]}

Under the 2016 law these durations were dropped down to 70 years.^{[2016-555 Section 5]}:

• Economic rights in a work last during the life of author. At the death of the author, they persist for the benefit of his successors during the current calendar year and the next seventy years.^{[2016-555 Article 47]}.

• Economic rights in an anonymous or under a pseudonymous work last for 70 years from the end of the calendar year in which the work was lawfully made available to the public. If not published in this period, the rights last for 70 years from completion of the work.^{[2016-555 Article 49]}
• For posthumous works, the duration of the exclusive rights is 70 years after death. For posthumous works disclosed after the expiry of this period, the duration of the exclusive right is 25 years from the first of January of the calendar year following that of the publication.^{[2016-555 Article 50]}
• Economic rights in a collective work or an audiovisual work last for 70 years from the end of the calendar year in which such work was published, made available to the public, or created, whichever is longest.^{[2016-555 Article 51]}
• Economic rights in a work of applied arts last for 25 years from the end of the year during which the work was disclosed.^{[2016-555 Article 52]}

Not protected

Protection does not extend to ideas, methods, procedures, concepts or information; official texts of a legislative, administrative or judicial nature, nor to their official translations; simple data and facts.^{[2016-555 Article 10]}

Public domain: not free

Lásd még: Commons:Paying public domain

At the expiry of the periods of protection, the right to exploit works, interpretations, audiovisual fixations, phonograms or videograms in the public domain is administered by the empowered collective management organization.^{[2016-555 Article 124]} Public performance and reproduction of the works in the public domain require an authorization from this organization. Authorization in the case of for-profit use is granted on payment of a royalty.^{[2016-555 Article 125]} Works, performances, phonograms or videograms or audiovisual fixations not subject to protection shall be collected by the authorized collective management organizations.^{[2016-555 Article 126]} The proceeds of the royalty shall be deposited, after deduction of the management costs, into a special fund managed by the empowered collective management organization that is devoted to cultural and social purposes for the benefit of Ivorian authors, performers and producers.^{[2016-555 Article 127]}

Traditional cultural expressions: not free

Traditional cultural expressions (TCEs) are productions of characteristic elements of the traditional artistic heritage developed and perpetuated by a community or individuals presumed to be Ivorian nationals, recognized as meeting the expectations of that community and including all literary and artistic production, including folk tales, folk poetry, popular songs and instrumental music, folk dances and performances, and artistic expressions of folk art rituals and productions.^{[2016-555 Article 1]} TCEs are part of the national heritage.^{[2016-555 Article 46]} The right to exploit TCEs is administered by the empowered collective management organization. Public performance and reproduction of TCEs for profit-making purposes requires authorization from the empowered agency. This authorization is granted on payment of a fee.^{[2016-555 Article 128]}

Freedom of panorama

  , non-profit use of images of copyrighted public art and architecture only.

• Note: please tag Ivorian no-FoP deletion requests: <noinclude>[[Category:Ivorian FOP cases/pending]]</noinclude>. Please also add {{NoFoP-Ivory Coast}} to images that incidentally show copyrighted public art and architecture.

Article 27 of the Law No. 2016-555 of July 26, 2016, on Copyright and Related Rights does not provide an acceptable freedom of panorama that can be used by Wikimedia Commons:

• When the graphic, plastic, or architectural work of art has been disclosed, the author may not prohibit:
  • the reproduction or representation, in whole or in part, by means of print, audiovisual or online media, for the exclusive purpose of immediate information and in direct relation with the latter, if the name of the author has been clearly mentioned;
  • reproductions, in whole or in part, of works of graphic or plastic art intended to appear in the catalog of a judicial sale carried out in Côte d'Ivoire for the copies made available to the public before the sale for the sole purpose of describe the works of art offered for sale;
  • the reproduction by audiovisual means and public communication by cable or by any other means, of graphic or plastic works of art, photographic works, and works of architecture permanently placed in a public place and their inclusion in the audiovisual work, when this reproduction is only accessory or incidental to the main subject.^{[2016-555 Article 27]}

The first provision only allows the use of copyrighted art and architecture for pure informational purposes only; the second only permits the use of artworks in catalogs of such during judicial or legal sales within the country; and the third only allows the incidental or accessory inclusion of public art and architecture in audiovisual or broadcasting media only.

The concluding provision of Article 27 further restricts free uses of such works:

• Any exploitation for profit of the reproductions mentioned in this article is subject to prior authorization of the author.^{[2016-555 Article 27]}

Wikimedia Commons does not accept non-commercial licenses in accordance with Commons:Licensing and the Definition of Free Cultural Works which this repository strictly follows.

According to the Ivorian copyright law, Côte d'Ivoire has a copyright duration of 70 years after the death of the author (that is, the creator/designer of the copyrighted work in public space) or the last-surviving author (if the work was designed by two or more creators/designers). If anonymous, 70 years after the work was first made lawfully to the public; if collective, 70 years from publication. In any case, the involved copyrighted work of public art and/or architecture in public space becomes copyright free and enters the public domain, and deleted images can now be restored.^{[2016-555 Article 47–51]}

A 2018-as adatok szerint az ENSZ Szellemi Jogi Világszervezete (WIPO) Ghána szerzői jogának tekintetében a Copyright Act, 2005 (Act 690)' törvényt tekinti irányadónak, melynek szövege megtalálható a WIPO Lex adatbázisban.

Note that any work originating in Guinea must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Guinea and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Guinea, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Background

France established control of Guinea in the late 19th century and administered the region as a territory within French West Africa. After a referendum, Guinea became independent on 2 October 1958.

Guinea has been a member of the Berne Convention since 20 November 1980, the World Trade Organization since 25 October 1995 and the WIPO Copyright Treaty since 25 May 2002.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Act No. 043/APN/CP of August 9, 1980, adopting Provisions Relating to Copyright and Neighboring Rights as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Guinea. WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.

General terms

• Copyright shall subsist during the lifetime of the author and for 80 calendar years from the end of the year of his death. In the case of a work of joint authorship, the only date taken into consideration for the calculation of the term of protection shall be that of the death of the last surviving coauthor.^{[1980 Article 42]}

Folklore: not free

Folklore belongs to the national heritage, where "folklore" means all literary and artistic creations made by authors presumed to be of Guinean nationality, passed from generation to generation and constituting one of the basic elements of the traditional Guinean cultural heritage. Public performance or direct or indirect fixation of folklore with a view to its exploitation for profit-making purposes shall require the prior authorization of the BGDA (Guinean Copyright Office) obtainable against payment of a fee.^{[1980 Article 5]}

Domaine Public Payant

Lásd még: Commons:Paying public domain

On expiry of the terms of protection referred to in Articles 42 and 43, during which a recognized exclusive right belongs to authors, their heirs or successors in title, the works of the author shall fall into the public domain. Exploitation of works in the public domain shall be subject to respect for moral rights, prior declaration and payment of a fee, the product of which shall be paid to the BGDA and used for cultural and social purposes for the benefit of authors. The right of exploitation or performance of works in the public domain shall be administered by the BGDA.^{[1980 Article 45]}

Freedom of panorama

A lap összefoglalja Bissau-Guinea szerzői jogi szabályozásának a Commons szempontjából releváns részét. A feltöltendő fájlnak mind Bissau-Guinea területén, mind az Egyesült Államokban közkincsnek vagy szabad licencűnek kell lennie. Kétség esetén a területi jogszabályok az irányadók.

Háttér

A jelenlegi Bissau-Guinea a 19. században Portugál-Guinea néven gyarmat volt. Az állam függetlenségét 1973-ban nyerte el, amelyet a nemzetközi közösség 1974-ben ismert el. A főváros (Bissau) nevét azért említik meg az ország elnevezésében, hogy elkerüljék a Guineával (eredetileg Francia-Guinea) való összetévesztést.

Bissau-Guinea 1991. július 22-e óta a Berni Egyezmény, 1995. május 31-e óta a Kereskedelmi Világszervezet, 1998. július 8-a óta pedig a Bangui Egyezmény tagja.

A 2018-as adatok szerint az ENSZ Szellemi Jogi Világszervezete (WIPO) a Bissau-Guineai szerzői jog tekintetében a portugál Copyright Code (approved by Decree-Law No. 46.980 of March 28, 1972) törvényt tekinti irányadónak, melynek szövege megtalálható a WIPO Lex adatbázisban. Az 1972-es rendelet megerősítette Portugál-Guinea Law No. 46980 of April 27, 1966 számú gyarmati törvényét.

2013-ra továbbra sem cserélték le az 1966. április 27-e óta érvényben levő Law No. 46,980 gyarmati törvényt.

Általános szabályok

Az 1972-es szerzői jogi törvény szerint:

• A védelmi idő a szerző halálától számított 50 évig tart.^{[46.980/1972 Article 25]}
• Közös munka eredményeképp létrejött alkotásoknál a lejárati időt az utoljára elhunyt alkotó halálától kell számolni.^{[46.980/1972 Article 30]}
• Gyűjtemények szerzői joga az első közzétételtől számított 50 évig érvényes, vagy részenként való elhelyezés esetén az egyes részek telepítésétől számított 50 évig érvényes.^{[46.980/1972 Article 31, 36]}
• Ha a gyűjtemény tulajdonosa egy természetes személy, akkor a jogi védelem az ő halálától számított 50 évig áll fenn.^{[46.980/1972 Article 31]}
• A közös munkákhoz történő egyéni hozzájárulás jogi védelme a szerző halálát követő 50. évig áll fenn.^{[46.980/1972 Article 32]}
• A posztumusz alkotások jogvédelme a szerző halálától 50 évig érvényes.^{[46.980/1972 Article 33]}
• Az ismeretlen, titkosított- vagy álnevű szerző által létrehozott alkotás a közzétételtől számított 50. évig jogvédett.^{[46.980/1972 Article 34]}

A fenti időtartamok a kiváltó eseményt követő év január 1-jétől számítandóak.^{[46.980/1972 Article 35]}

Currency

 Unsure West African CFA franc used in Guinea-Bissau has close ties to France. French Cour de Cassation ruled in 2002 that franc is not covered by Copyright Law, but it is not known if it also applies to West African CFA franc.

Liberia has been a member of the Berne Convention since 8 March 1989 and the World Trade Organization since 14 July 2016.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed An Act to Repeal an Act Adopting a New Copyright Law of the Republic of Liberia approved July 23, 1997; and the Industrial Property Act of Liberia approved March 20, 2003, constituting Title 24 of the Liberian Code of Laws Revised, and to enact in their stead a New Title 24 to be known as the "Liberia Intellectual Property Act, 2016" as the main IP law enacted by the legislature of Liberia. WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database. The Act Adopting a New Copyright Law of the Republic of Liberia, July 23, 1997 is repealed in its entirety.^{[2016 §2.1]}

General rules

Under the Liberia Intellectual Property Act, 2016,

• The following acts shall be permitted ... for the purpose of reporting current events, the reproduction and the broadcasting or other communication to the public by means of photography, audiovisual, broadcasting or other communication of short excerpts of a work seen or heard in the course of such events, to the extent justified by the purpose.^{[2016 §9.14(c)]]}
• The fair use of a copyright work, including such use by reproduction in copies or sound recordings or by any other means, for purposes such as parody, satire, criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship or research, is not an infringement of copyright.

Note that any work originating in Mauritania must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Mauritania and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Mauritania, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Background

France began to extend its control north from the Senegal River area into what is now Mauritania in the late 19th century. Mauritania was part of French West Africa from 1920. The country gained independence in 1960.

Mauritania has been a member of the Berne Convention since 6 February 1973, the Bangui Agreement since 8 February 1982 and the World Trade Organization since 31 May 1995.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, did not list any copyright law enacted by the legislature of Mauritania. A report on Mauritania on the World Trade Organization website in March 2009 stated that Mauritania had not yet notified the WTO of its intellectual property rights legislation, and had not ratified the Protocol amending the TRIPS Agreement.

The WTO stated that the legislative and regulatory framework of copyright in Mauritania had undergone a major reform with the adoption of Law No. 2012-038 of 17 July 2012 on literary and artistic property, but implementing legislation had not been adopted. In November 2018 Loi No 2012-038 relative à la propriété littéraire et artistique was held on the website of the Organisation Africaine de la Propriété Intellectuelle. Following a website reorganization, the document is no longer available.

General rules

According to the 2012 copyright act Loi No 2012-038 relative à la propriété littéraire et artistique,

• Protection lasts for 70 years after the death of the author.^{[2012-038 Art. 53]}
• For joint works, protection lasts for 70 years after death of the last surviving author.^{[2012-038 Art. 54]}
• For collective and audiovisual works, protection lasts for 70 years after creation, public disclosure if within 70 years of creation or publication if within 70 years of creation, whichever is latest.^{[2012-038 Art. 55, 57]}
• For pseudonymous, collective or posthumous work, protection last for 70 years after the date of its publication or creation, whatever is the latest.^{[2012-038 Art. 56, 59]}
• In the case of photographic works and works of applied art, protection lasts for 70 years after the date of creation.^{[2012-038 Art. 58]}

All terms run to the end of the year in which they expire.

This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Nigeria relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Nigeria must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Nigeria and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Nigeria, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Background

Nigeria state originated from British colonial rule beginning in the 19th century, and took its present territorial shape with the merging of the Southern Nigeria Protectorate and Northern Nigeria Protectorate in 1914. Nigeria became a formally independent federation on 1 October 1960.

Nigeria has been a member of the Berne Convention since 14 September 1993, the World Trade Organization since 1 January 1995 and the WIPO Copyright Treaty since 4 January 2018.

As of 2023 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the Copyright Act, 2022 (Act No.8 of 2022 as the most recent main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Nigeria. WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database. This law repeals the Copyright Act of 1988 (Chapter C.28, as codified 2004), a copy of which is also available at WIPO Lex database.

Retroactivity

The 2004 act repealed the Copyright Act 1970.^{[C.28/2004 Art.52]} It applies retroactively.^{[C.28/2004 5th Schedule]}

The 2022 act is apparently not retroactive: "The Copyright Act, Cap. C28, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004 is repealed."^{[No.8/2022 Sec. 106(1)]} And, "Without prejudice to section 6 of the Interpretation Act, the repeal of the enactment specified in subsection (1), shall not affect anything doneunder the enactment."^{[No.8/2022 Sec. 106(3)]} The act became effective on 17 March 2023.

Durations

Under the Copyright Act of 1988 (Chapter C.28, as codified 2004), the terms of protection are:

• Anonymous or pseudonymous works are protected until 70 years after the end of the year of publication.^{[C.28/2004 Art.2(3)]}
• Literary, musical or artistic works other than photographs: 70 years after the end of the year in which the author dies.^{[C.28/2004 1st Sched/1]}
• In the case of government or a body corporate, 70 years after the end of the year in which the work was first published.^{[C.28/2004 1st Sched/1]}
• Cinematograph films and photographs. 50 years after the end of the year in which the work was first published.^{[C.28/2004 1st Sched/2]}
• Sound recordings. 50 years after the end of the year in which the recording was first made.^{[C.28/2004 1st Sched/3]}
• Broadcasts. 50 years after the end of the year in which the broadcasting first took place.^{[C.28/2004 1st Sched/4]}

Notice there is no exception for government works – quite the opposite, they are very broadly covered: " Copyright shall be conferred by this section on every work, which is eligible for copyright and is made by or under the direction or control of the Government, a State authority or prescribed international body."

Copyright tags

• {{PD-Nigeria}} – for following types of works:

a) cinematograph films or photographs 50 years after first publication;

b) sound recordings 50 years after creation;

c) broadcasts 50 years after first taking place;

d) other works 70 years after author's death or in case of governmental or corporative authorship – 70 years after first publication.

Currency

  . There is no copyright exemption for government works. (discussion)

Freedom of panorama

  , no longer applicable for new uploads (of photos) starting 17 March 2023. Under the Copyright Act, 2022 (Act No.8 of 2022), "The rights conferred in respect of a work under sections 9-13 of this Act, do not include the right to control any of the acts specified in those sections by way of fair dealing for purposes such as ... the inclusion in an audiovisual work or a broadcast of an artistic work situated in a place where it can be viewed by the public."^{[No.8/2022 Sec. 20(1)(e)]}

Under the repealed Copyright Act, Cap. C28, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004, "The right conferred in respect of a work by section 5 of this Act does not include the right to control ... the reproduction and distribution of copies of any artistic work permanently situated in a place where it can be viewed by the public".^{[C.28/2004 2nd Sched/d]}

Threshold of originality

Under the Copyright Act of 1988 (Chapter C.28, as codified 2004), A literary, musical or artistic work shall not be eligible for copyright unless (a) sufficient effort has been expended on making the work to give it an original character;...^{[C28/2004 Section 1(2)]}

Nyugat-Szahara

Limited international recognition

Nyugat-Szahara elhelyezkedése, pirossal a marokkói és az SADR-irányítás alatt lévő területek választóvonala

Nyugat-Szahara Észak- és Nyugat-Afrika Magreb régiójában elhelyezkedő vitatott jogállású terület, amelyet részben az önhatalmúlag kikiáltott Sahrawi Arab Demokratikus Köztársaság, részben pedig Marokkó tart irányítása alatt.

Háttér

A mai terület 1884-től 1975-ig Spanyol-Szahara néven spanyol irányítás alatt állt. Az 1975-ös Madridi Egyezmény értelmében a terület az Egyesült Államok által is szorgalmazott lépéssel Marokkóhoz került. Az USA álláspontja jelenleg semleges.

A Sahrawi Arab Demokratikus Köztársaságot (SADR) 1976. február 27-én kiáltotta ki a Polisario Front. Az SADR-kormány az ország keleti részén található területet irányít, amelyet egy domb választ el a nagyobb, nyugati területektől, amelyek Marokkó irányítása alatt állnak Déli Provinciák néven. Az SADR 40 ENSZ taggal tart fenn diplomáciai kapcsolatokat, valamint az Afrikai Unió teljes jogú tagja.

Alkalmazott törvények

Sem Nyugat-Szahara, sem az SADR nem jelenik meg az USA-val szerzői jogi kapcsolatot ápoló államok között. A de facto állapot alapján Nyugat-Szaharában (illetve legalább a dombtól nyugatra) a marokkói törvények az irányadóak.

A lap összefoglalja a szomáliai szerzői jogi szabályozásnak a Commons szempontjából releváns részét. A feltöltendő fájlnak mind Togóban, mind az Egyesült Államokban közkincsnek vagy szabad licencűnek kell lennie. Kétség esetén a területi jogszabályok az irányadók.

Háttér

1884-ben Németország a régiót Togoland néven protektorátussá minősítette, majd Togo az első világháborút követően Franciaország fennhatósága alá került. Az ország 1960. április 27-én nyerte el függetlenségét.

Togo 1975. április 30-a óta a Berni Egyezmény, 1982. február 8-a óta a Bangui Egyezmény, 1995. május 31-e óta a Kereskedelmi Világszervezet, 2003. május 21-e óta pedig a WIPO Szerzői Jogi Egyezmény tagja.

A 2018-as adatok szerint az ENSZ Szellemi Jogi Világszervezete (WIPO) a togói szerzői jog tekintetében a „Law No. 91-12 of June 10, 1991 on the Protection of Copyright, Folklore and Related Rights” tekinti irányadónak, melynek szövege megtalálható a WIPO Lex adatbázisban. A törvény visszamenőleges hatályú: „Az ezen törvénnyel ütköző rendelkezések felülírandóak”.^{[91-12/1991 Article 119]}

Általános szabályok

This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Cape Verde relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Cape Verde must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Cape Verde and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Cape Verde, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Background

Cape Verde was first settled by the Portuguese in the 15th century. The islands were incorporated as an overseas department of Portugal in 1951. They gained independence in 1975.

Cape Verde has been a member of the Berne Convention since 7 July 1997, the World Trade Organization since 23 July 2008 and the WIPO Copyright treaty since 22 May 2019.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Decree-Law No. 1/2009 of April 27, 2009, on the Revision of Copyright Law as the main copyright law of Cape Verde. WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database. This was amended by Decree-Law No. 2/2017 of November 16, 2017. The amendment does to appear to affect the definitions of works or the durations of protection.
