Copyright Violations
Copyright exists
in any original work which exists or is fixed in any tangible
medium of expression. Images displayable on computer screens,
computer software, music, books, magazines, scientific and other
journals, photographs, and articles are some of the things
subject to copyright. A copyright notice is not required.
It is a violation
of copyright law to copy, distribute, display, exhibit, or
perform copyrighted works without authority of the owner of the
copyright.
Transmission
electronically includes both copying and distributing. Such
things as downloading music, or displaying photographs without
authority of the copyright owner may be a violation. Civil
penalties can be substantial. Under the DMCA, HHSC is permitted
to immediately take down any infringing site on the HHSC
network, and block access to any infringing sites on other
networks, upon proper notice from the copyright owner or upon
actual knowledge of infringement.
