What can I do if my copyrighted work has been used without permission?

Copyright
7 May 2024

The Law on Copyright and Related Rights (ZAPSP) in Bulgaria provides a legal framework for the protection of works in areas such as music, literature, photography, the film industry and other spheres. The authors of such works possess both economic and moral rights. Property rights include the right to reproduce, distribute and publicly perform the work, while non-property rights concern the recognition of authorship and the protection of the creative identity of the work.

If an author's works have been used without permission, the author has the right to take legal action. This includes filing a copyright infringement claim, seeking damages, and stopping the unauthorized use of the work. It is also important to gather evidence of the infringement, such as testimonials, copies of the work, and other materials that can support the author's claims in court.
