Copyright protection gives creators of original works—such as books, music, artwork, films, and software—exclusive rights to control how their work is used. This legal protection prevents others from copying, distributing, or publicly displaying the work without permission. Copyright automatically applies when a work is created, but registering your copyright strengthens your legal rights and makes it easier to enforce against infringement. It ensures creators can protect their intellectual property and benefit financially from their creative efforts.

  • Dramatic Works: Plays, screenplays, and scripts.
  •  Films and Videos: Movies, documentaries, and short videos.
  •  Software: Computer programs and applications.
  •  Architectural Designs: Original building designs and blueprints.
