Document background
The License And Copyright Notice is a fundamental legal document used to protect intellectual property rights and establish usage terms under Philippine law. It is essential when creators, businesses, or organizations need to assert their copyright ownership while simultaneously granting specific usage rights to others. This document type combines elements of copyright protection under the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines with clear licensing terms, making it particularly valuable for digital content, software, creative works, and other intellectual property. The document should be used whenever there's a need to establish copyright ownership and define permitted uses, modifications, or distribution rights of protected work. It includes crucial elements such as ownership declarations, scope of license, usage restrictions, and attribution requirements, all while ensuring compliance with Philippine intellectual property laws and relevant international conventions.
