Recent situations regarding copyright
Streaming content with images, videos and music has become common practice on blogs, social media and other web media outlets. Many of these are posted without the permission of the copyright owners and without identifying their sources. Recently, we have also heard arguments regarding the scope of the copyrights to materials created using Generative AI.

Aim of the workshop
When writing an article or making a post, media operators use a broad range of copyrighted materials such as illustrations, photos, videos and product packages. Whenever you use a copyrighted work, you need to confirm the conditions of use while understanding who the owner of the copyright is and ensure the work is used legally. Additionally, people may cite content that you have produced. To ensure that your content is being used in compliance with requirements, you need to have a basic knowledge of copyright and stay up to date on the matter.
Mr. Teruhito Ohta has been invited to lecture on the basics of copyright at the webinar. He is a person in charge of public relations in the Association of Copyright for Computer Software’s administrative organization. He will also answer questions received in advance from people who wish to attend the workshop.

Learn accurate information about the Copyright Act at the workshop use it in the creation of e-commerce websites and content that advertisers and consumers can rely on.
