Define copyright?

Copyright is a form of intellectual property law that grants the creator of an original work exclusive rights to its use and distribution, usually for a limited time, with the intention of enabling the creator to receive compensation for their intellectual effort. This protection applies to a wide range of creative works, including literary, artistic, musical, and other forms of expression.

Copyright is a type of intellectual property that gives the creator of original works exclusive rights to control the use and distribution of those works. Under copyright law, the creator has the exclusive right to:

- Reproduce the work
- Prepare derivative works based on the work
- Distribute copies of the work
- Perform the work publicly
- Display the work publicly

Copyright protection lasts for the life of the creator plus an additional 70 years.
