    Copyright, Legal Notice And Disclaimer

    Hello, I am an author and creator of Ebooks amongst other things. The first page of my books is always the book cover. The second page is the Copyright, Legal Notice And Disclaimer.

    In the second page of my books I always have this:

    This publication is protected under the US Copyright Act of 1976 and all other applicable international, federal, state and local laws, and all rights are reserved, including resale rights: You have NO RESALE RIGHTS for This eBook. Please note that much of this publication is based on personal experience and anecdotal evidence. Although the author and publisher have made every reasonable attempt to achieve complete accuracy of the content in this Guide, they assume no responsibility for errors or omissions. Also, you should use this information as you see fit, and at your own risk. Your particular situation may not be exactly suited to the examples illustrated here; in fact, it's likely that they won't be the same, and you should adjust your use of the information and recommendations accordingly. Any trademarks, service marks, product names or named features are assumed to be the property of their respective owners, and are used only for reference. There is no implied endorsement if we use one of these terms. Finally, use your head. Nothing in this Guide is intended to replace common sense, legal, medical or other professional advice, and is meant to inform and entertain the reader.

    I also have this in the footer of that same page:
    The work herein is Copyrighted of "my full name" 2016 - All Rights Reserved

    This Report Does Not Come with Resell Rights.

    So, with that said, I do have some questions regarding this. At one point (a few years ago), I found out that one of my clients we're selling my ebook and I sent him a message regarding this. I basically told him to stop and I had help from a law-student so I just copy/pasted his reply. Copyright, Legal Notice And Disclaimer

    However, he did stop and I've never had any of these issues since.

    What I wonder is, by having this stated within my products. Would that be enough "evidence" in case I'd end up in court some day? (If I sued someone for selling my product for instance)

    And, if it's not enough. What should or could I do instead?

    Best Regards,
    hitmeasap

    I think this falls under the intellectual property rights, if you're a registered company or even self employed, and you copyright some intellectual property and another party uses that property in a commercial way (ie selling it) without your permission, you can send them a cease and desist notice. If they fail to respond and stop you can then take them to court. Your lawyer will send them a subpoena!

    What if someone would start selling this as their own content.. And I contact a lawyer so they send them a subpoena. What would happen if this actually ends up in court? Wouldn't I have to present enough evidence that clearly show that they have sold my product and wouldn't I also need to present information and documents of how much money I had lost because of them? And if so, how would I be able to do that, since I can't know if they've been selling my products on several marketplaces etc. There's no way I could know exactly how much money they've made from my product and I can't know how much money I would have lost.. Or am I missing something?

    Copyright is a form of intellectual property that protects original literary, dramatic, musical and artistic works, as well as layouts or typographical arrangements of published work, sound recordings, film and broadcast.

    Copyright gives the creator of the work the exclusive rights to copy, license, rent, lend, perform, show the work to the public, make an adaptation of the work or translate a work. Moral rights, which are similar to copyright, also give the creator the right to be identified as the author of the work; not to have their work changed and the right to object to derogatory treatment of their work.

    So, if you are registered company or self employed and if anybody break Copyright rights anyway you can take action by legal advisor by copyright act.

    Thanks by Ajlancer

    Since basically only this part focuses on copyright, "This publication is protected under the US Copyright Act of 1976 and all other applicable international, federal, state and local laws, and all rights are reserved, including resale rights: You have NO RESALE RIGHTS for This eBook. ".... I think that you need to elaborate a bit more. I am not an expert at this, but I would have someone professional / legal draft it for me if I were you, so that you state clearly what types of action you would be willing to take should someone decide to infringe the copyright. Moreover, you could state that no part of this publication may be reproduced, distributed, or transmitted in any form or by any means, including photocopying, recording, or other methods, without the prior written permission.

    Thank you for your response EliteWriter, I appreciate it. What I state within my products are something a law-student came up with. I can't clearly tell if it's correct or not but I've been using that text because of him. At least it's some sort of "warning" even though I most likely couldn't do anything besides sending them a message regarding this, if someone started to sell my products without my permission. I bet that it would be a lot easier if I where the founder of something major like Microsoft for instance. Then it would be another scenario as I would have help from tons of lawyers and stuff like that. I think it's quite difficult to protect yourself from this kind of things, which is the reason I would like to do something about it at least. And that ultimately resulted to what I have stated in my products today.

    You might be right, about elaborating this a bit more. I'll keep that in mind. Thank you!

    I guess prevention is better and you could see how much a legal specialist would charge you for brief but more accurate (and let's say deterring) copyright legal notice. It would be something you get to do once, and probably there are even freelancers who might have experience in doing it at a lower price, assuming you can make sure they will do it properly.
