jurisdictions.

One consequence of the Berne Convention rules is that we should always care about the laws of the country of origin of the work. </p><p>Most important is article 7, which sets the term of duration of the protections granted by the Convention. The Convention sets a <i>minimal</i> term of 50 years after the life of the authors (subject to some exceptions). However, each country is free to set longer terms. </p> <dl><dd><i>In any case, the term shall be governed by the legislation of the country where protection is claimed; however, unless the legislation of that country otherwise provides, the term shall not exceed the term fixed in the country of origin of the work.</i></dd></dl> <p>Even though many countries have accepted the rule of the shorter term based on Article 7 of the Convention, please note that the United States Copyright Act <b>has not</b> honored such a rule. For example, <a href="https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/United_States_Code/Title_17/Chapter_1/Section_104A" class="extiw" title="s:United States Code/Title 17/Chapter 1/Section 104A">17 U.S.C. 104A</a>(a)(1)(B) may restore copyright on a work published outside the <a href="/wiki/USA" class="mw-redirect" title="USA">USA</a> for the remaining American copyright term even if its copyright may expire sooner in its source country. This may affect works that were still copyrighted on 1 January 1996 in their source countries. This means, that a work now in the public domain in a Commons user's home country might still be legally copyrighted in the United States.

This is, for instance, the case for the legal exemptions of copyright (equivalent of "fair use"), which are allowed to differ within certain limits. </p><p>The important <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directive_on_Copyright_in_the_Digital_Single_Market" class="extiw" title="w:Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market">Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market</a> has been adopted and came into force on 7 June 2019. It is intended to ensure "a well-functioning marketplace for copyright".<sup id="cite_ref-EC2016_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EC2016-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It extends existing <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/copyright_law_of_the_European_Union" class="extiw" title="w:copyright law of the European Union">European Union copyright law</a> and is a component of the EU's <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Single_Market" class="extiw" title="w:Digital Single Market">Digital Single Market</a> project.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The most important, for our purposes, is the <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Copyright_Duration_Directive" class="extiw" title="w:en:Copyright Duration Directive">Directive on harmonizing the term of copyright protection</a></i>. This directive sets the duration of copyright to 70 years following the death of the author (for multiple authors, of the last author; for <a href="/wiki/Commons:Collective_work" title="Commons:Collective work">collective</a>, <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/pseudonymous" class="extiw" title="wikt:pseudonymous">pseudonymous</a> or anonymous works, following the date of publication). </p><p>However, this directive does not shorten already running extended copyright terms in countries that apply them. </p><p>The 2001 EUCD, Article 5, specifies exceptions to copyright.<sup id="cite_ref-EUCD_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EUCD-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> However, only one of these exceptions is mandatory (it concerns <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Cache_(computing)" class="extiw" title="w:en:Cache (computing)">caching</a>). The others are optional, meaning that for each exception, each country is free to choose whether it adopts it and how it restricts it. Thus, one should not assume that an exception true in one <a href="/wiki/EU" class="mw-redirect" title="EU">EU</a> country applies in another. Notably, each country is free to choose how to copyright <a href="/wiki/Commons:Freedom_of_panorama" title="Commons:Freedom of panorama">objects permanently located in public places</a> and <a href="/wiki/Commons:Copyright_rules/Photographs" title="Commons:Copyright rules/Photographs">"simple" photographs</a>. </p><p>Finally, there is a considerable amount of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Case_law" class="extiw" title="w:en:Case law">case law</a> or <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Jurisprudence" class="extiw" title="w:en:Jurisprudence">jurisprudence</a> on these issues. In some cases, they may create rights or restrictions that do not appear in the text of the law. Thus, one should always be wary in how the law is interpreted in the country of interest, as opposed to merely reading the legal texts. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Country-specific_laws" data-mw-thread-id="h-Country-specific_laws"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Country-specific_laws"></span>Country-specific laws<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Country-specific_laws"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Country-specific laws"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Laws about copyright differ from country to country. Images uploaded to Commons, unless uploaded from the United States, involve the interaction of two or more copyright jurisdictions. Generally, the policy applied on Commons is to only allow images that can be used in all (or at least most) countries. The laws of individual countries differ especially in the following points: </p> <ul><li>The time for which a copyright applies. In most countries, copyright expires no later than 70 years after the death of the author (<i><abbr title="post mortem auctoris (Latin for 'after the author's death')">p.m.a.</abbr></i>), sometimes extended by war periods when copyright protection could not be enforced.</li> <li>Status of works of the government. In many (but not all) countries, documents published by the government for official use are in the public domain.</li> <li>Material applicable for copyright. In some jurisdictions, pictures of artistic work like architecture, sculptures, clothing etc. can not be used freely without the consent of the creator of the original artwork.</li></ul> <p>The safest way to apply international copyright law is to consider the laws of all the relevant jurisdictions and then use the most restrictive combination of laws to determine whether something is copyrighted or not. The jurisdictions that might need to be considered are: </p> <ul><li>The place where the work was created;</li> <li>The place where the work is being uploaded from;</li> <li>The place that any web server the work has been downloaded from physically is;</li> <li>The United States.</li></ul> <p>A work is only allowed on Commons if it is either public domain in all relevant jurisdictions or if there is a free licence which applies to the work in all relevant jurisdictions. </p><p>In the case of a painting published in France please <b>do apply</b> US-American copyright laws as those copyright laws apply to the servers of Commons. Also apply the copyright laws of the country you are in and the copyright laws of any web server you got the work off. In the case of a French painting uploaded to Commons from a French web server by someone living in the UK three copyright jurisdictions would apply: France, UK and US. US law would mean that if the painting had not been published before 1929 it would be in copyright. British law would mean that if the painting was by an artist who had been dead for less than 70 years it would be in copyright. French law would mean that, if the painting was by an artist who died while in service for France (a concept called <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mort_pour_la_France">Mort pour la France</a>), it would be in copyright for 100 years after the artist's death: an additional 30 years past the term provided by British law. In this case the most restrictive combination of jurisdictions would be French and US. Only if the painting was legally in the public domain in both France and the United States could it be uploaded from a French web server to Commons. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Authorship" data-mw-thread-id="h-Authorship-Country-specific_laws"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Authorship-Country-specific_laws"></span>Authorship<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Authorship-Country-specific_laws"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Authorship"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li>Rules are generally different for works with known authors and works published anonymously or pseudonymously.
