4. The Sui Generis Right of Database Producers
The sui generis right of database producers is a third sub-category within literary and artistic property, in addition to copyright & related rights : it stems from an European directive of March 11, 1996. This directive is at the origin of additional protection for databases, transposed into the national legislation of each Member State of the European Union. This protection comes in addition to that conferred by copyright and requires the fulfillment of very specific conditions. The database producer is defined there as “the person who takes the initiative and the risk of the related investments”.
We offer a legal service for any advice relating to the protection of databases.
