How do I get Copyright? Under most national laws and international copyright treaties you receive a copyright automatically in any original work as you make it. Copyright does not protect ideas rather it protects the expression of ideas or the ways in which an idea is materially placed or expressed in the work.
What is Copyright Infringement? Copyright infringement occurs when you do certain things with a creative work which someone else produced (Copyright of someone else) without first getting the proper permission.
Some examples of copyright infringement (this is only a partial listing) can include:
We may use your Personal Data to contact you with newsletters, marketing or promotional materials and other information that may be of interest to you.

How Can I Avoid Infringing on Someone's Copyright? The best way to avoid infringing on the rights of another creative person is to use your skill, talent and imagination to create your own completely original work. When we use the word 'original' we don't mean that you must come up with an idea which hasn't been used before - recall that copyright does not protect ideas. When used in reference to copyright "original" means that you created your work without referencing or deliberately copying anyone else's work during the process.
Ensure that all parts of your work are your own original creations. If you have used or copied work which are owned by other people and not taken appropriate permissions, then you could be infringing someone’s copyright.
What Sort of Things are Copyrighted? The easy answer to this question is that just about any creative work that is not created by you should be considered copyrighted by default.
A work is not required to have a copyright statement printed on it or near it in order to be considered copyrighted so do not assume that the work is unprotected simply because you cannot see a notice written anywhere.
Also do not confuse the fact that a work is publicly available with the idea that it is in the public domain or free for use. Being easy to find on the internet does not affect a work's copyrighted status.
What Happens When You Submit Infringing Works to MayinArt? When through the proper notice we become aware that a submission to MayinArt infringes upon the copyrights of another artist, we will immediately remove it. This is a legal requirement which we fulfill immediately.
