什么是版权？ (What Is a Copyright?)

According to the U.S. Copyright Office, “Copyright is a form of protection provided to the authors of ‘original works of authorship,’ including literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, and certain other intellectual works.”

根据美国版权局的说法，“版权是对“原创作品”的作者的一种保护形式，包括文学，戏剧，音乐，艺术和某些其他知识产权作品。”

The basis of the U.S. law is the Copyright Act of 1976, which gives authors of original works exclusive rights to the works and the option to grant usage rights to others. Generally, the rights include:

美国法律的基础是1976年的《版权法》，该法赋予原始作品的作者专有的作品权利，并可以选择将使用权授予他人。通常，权利包括：

Reproduction
再生产
Development of derivative works
开发衍生作品
Distribution
分配
Public display
公开展示

如何版权网站？ (How Can I Copyright a Website?)

Original work is copyrighted from the moment of creation, provided it’s fixed in tangible form. What does “fixed in tangible form” mean? This means that the work has to be documented or communicated in an observable way, either directly or through a machine or device. Some examples of fixed in tangible form include written on paper, saved on a hard drive, or captured on a recording device. Ideas, systems and methods cannot be copyrighted.

如果原始作品以有形形式固定，则从创作之日起即享有版权。 “以有形形式固定”是什么意思？这意味着必须直接或通过机器或设备以可观察的方式记录或交流工作。以有形形式固定的一些示例包括写在纸上，保存在硬盘驱动器上或捕获在记录设备上。想法，系统和方法不能享有版权。

A website — graphics, content, visual elements — is copyrighted at the time of development. So putting the copyright notice on the bottom of a site states that the material displayed is not to be used without permission of the owner. In fact, you don’t even need the notice to claim copyright; the law eliminated the requirement of public notice in 1989.

To take this one step further, copyright registration is an option when protecting online works. Registering a copyright provides a public record of ownership, plus registration is necessary before filing an infringement suit in court, should you ever need to do so. You can register online or by mail, by providing an application, a non-refundable fee (which is currently $35 for online registration), and a non-returnable deposit. The deposit is the entire work to be copyrighted (i.e. the website), which can be uploaded or sent in via CD.

为了更进一步，在保护在线作品时，可以选择版权注册。注册版权可提供所有权的公共记录，此外，如果需要，在向法院提起侵权诉讼之前必须进行注册。您可以在线或通过邮件进行注册，方法是提供申请，不可退款的费用(在线注册目前为35美元)和不可退还的押金。保证金是要受版权保护的整个作品(即网站)，可以通过CD上传或发送。

This is important to note: the registered copyright only extends to the works included in the deposit. If you update the website after filing the copyright, you will need to register again for the new material. There are two cases (databases and serials/newsletters) where, if you meet the requirements, you can register in three-month chunks, with the copyright covering three months at a time. See Circular 62b for more information serials and newsletters, and Circular 65 for more information on databases. Please note: At the time of writing this, Circular 65 was being revised and was unavailable.

需要特别注意的是：注册版权仅适用于保证金中包含的作品。如果您在提交版权后更新了网站，则需要重新注册新材料。在两种情况下(数据库和序列号/新闻通讯)，如果满足要求，则可以分三个月进行注册，版权一次覆盖三个月。有关序列号和新闻通讯的更多信息，请参见62b号文，有关数据库的更多信息，请参见65号文。 请注意：在撰写本文时，65号文正在修订中且不可用。

谁拥有受版权保护的材料？ (Who Owns Copyrighted Material?)

Generally, the creator owns the rights to the work, except in the case of a “work for hire” arrangement, such as an employer/employee relationship. If you’re a freelancer or business owner hired to create a specific work, you are considered the creator and retain all rights, unless you have a “work for hire” agreement with the client that grants them ownership of the work. These details should be negotiated and outlined in your contract for every job so there is no question about ownership. This paragraph has been corrected from the initial post which misstated the designer’s rights.

版权是否在国际范围内扩展？ (Does a Copyright Extend Internationally?)

There is not a world-wide copyright, but many countries adhere to international copyright treaties and conventions for foreign works. Review Circular 38a for a list of countries and their copyright laws.

没有全世界的版权，但是许多国家都遵守国际版权条约和外国作品公约。有关国家及其版权法的清单，请参阅38a号通知。
