[Complete Guide] Be Careful of Copyright in Original Goods Production

The production of original goods is a powerful means for individuals and companies to promote their unique brands.

Cases of copyright infringement in the production of original goods Case 1: Regarding the use of logos Logos are symbols of companies and brands. The use of logos may involve trademark rights, and registered trademarks cannot be used without permission. Case 2: Regarding the use of characters When using popular characters for original goods, it is necessary to obtain permission from the rights holder who owns the copyright to that character. In fact, there have been cases where a company was sued for copyright infringement for using a famous character without permission, leading to legal action. If you want to create goods using a character, you should enter into a licensing agreement with the rights holder. Case 3: Regarding the use of illustrations and designs If you create illustrations or designs yourself, there is no problem, but using someone else's work without permission constitutes copyright infringement. When using free materials, it is also important to check the terms of use, as proper crediting may be required.
