Protection of information on right management

The article examines copyright management information (CMI) at the international, regional and national levels.At the international level, the protection of CMI against its removal or modification is provided by Articles 12 of the WIPO Copyright Treaty and 19 of the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty. Such information identifies the work, the author of the work, the assignee of any right in the work, the performer, the performer's performance, the producer of the phonogram, phonogram, the holder of any right in the work, performance or phonogram, or information about the terms of use of the work, performance or phonogram and any -what numbers or codes, in which such information is presented, when any ofthese elements is added to a copy of the work, recorded performance or phonogram or appears in connection with the notification or proof of the work, recorded performance or phonogram for public information.In the European Union, the protection of CMI is provided by the provisions of Article 7 Directive 2001/29/EU at the European Parliament at the Council at 22 May 2001 on the harmonization at certain aspects at copyright and related rights in the information society, which recommends that member states implement the national legislation of CMI protection standards.At the national level, a comprehensive approach to CMI protection has been applied in the USA and Germany.Chapter 12 was added to the US copyright law. Section 1202 contains the CMI provision, the first clause of which deals with false information, the second clause with the removal or distortion of said information. Section 1203 gives the court authority to award a range of equitable and monetary remedies similar to those provided under the Copyright Act. Paragraph 1204 determines the punishment in the form of a fine of up to 500 thousand US dollars and imprisonment for up to 5 years.Provisions regarding CMI protection (§95c) and remedies for infringed rights (§§108b, IIIa) have been added to the German Copyright and Related Rights Act.In Ukraine, CMI protection is possible in accordance with Article 52(4) of the Law on Copyright and Related Rights. Separate clarifications to the provisions of this Law regarding the protection of CMI are proposed.
