Oikeudenomistajilta

Oikeudenomistajilta is a Finnish phrase formed from oikeudenomistaja, meaning a holder of rights, with the elative plural suffix -ilta indicating source or origin from “the rights holders.” In Finnish practice, oikeudenomistajilta is used to refer to information, statements, permissions, or materials that originate from those who hold applicable rights, such as copyrights, neighboring rights, or other intellectual property rights. The form is common in legal, administrative, and media contexts to indicate source or approval supplied by the rights holders collectively.

Oikeudenomistajat, the plural form, can include creators such as authors, composers, producers, publishers, performers, or owners of rights in a work, as well as entities that hold rights through contracts or statutory provisions. Rights may be managed directly by the holders or through collective management organizations. The term is deliberately broad, allowing reference to a group of holders without naming individuals or specific rights in every instance.

In usage, oikeudenomistajilta often appears in licensing, attribution, or sourcing statements. For example, a media outlet might report information "oikeudenomistajilta saadun luvan perusteella" or reference "oikeudenomistajilta tulleet lausunnot" to indicate that the material or statements originated from the rights holders. The phrase supports neutral attribution in legal documents, licensing terms, and journalistic reporting.
