Tekijänoikeusperusteiset

Tekijänoikeusperusteiset refers to concepts and frameworks within copyright law, particularly concerning the establishment and extent of copyright protection. In Finnish legal terminology, "tekijänoikeus" translates to copyright. Therefore, "tekijänoikeusperusteiset" can be understood as relating to the fundamental principles or bases upon which copyright is founded.

These principles typically involve originality and the author's own intellectual creation. For a work to be protected by copyright, it must generally possess a certain degree of originality. This originality is not about novelty in the absolute sense, but rather that the work originates from the author and is not a copy of another work. The threshold for originality can vary depending on the jurisdiction and the type of work.

Furthermore, copyright protection is often linked to the author's personality and their creative input. The idea is that copyright safeguards the expression of an idea, not the idea itself, recognizing the author's unique contribution. This protection is typically automatic upon creation and does not require registration, although registration can offer benefits in some legal systems. The scope of tekijänoikeusperusteiset considerations also extends to the rights granted to the author, such as the exclusive rights to reproduce, distribute, and adapt their work. These rights are crucial for authors to control the use of their creations and to benefit from them.
