Document background
A Copyright Notice For Images is an essential legal document used to protect intellectual property rights in visual works under Malaysian jurisdiction. This document is particularly crucial in the digital age where image sharing and reproduction are commonplace. It should be implemented whenever original photographs, illustrations, or other visual works are published, shared, or made available for use by others. The notice draws its authority from the Malaysian Copyright Act 1987 and related regulations, providing clear ownership declaration, usage terms, and enforcement provisions. It helps prevent unauthorized use while establishing a framework for legitimate usage, making it particularly valuable for businesses, creators, and organizations dealing with visual content. The document serves both as a deterrent to copyright infringement and as a guideline for proper image utilization.
