    Copyright is a legal right created by the law of a country that grants the creator of an original work exclusive rights for its use and distribution. This is usually only for a limited time. The exclusive rights are not absolute but limited by limitations and exceptions to copyright law, including fair use. A major limitation on copyright is that copyright protects only the original expression of ideas, and not the underlying ideas themselves.

    Copyright is a form of intellectual property, applicable to certain forms of creative work. Some, but not all jurisdictions require "fixing" copyrighted works in a tangible form. It is often shared among multiple authors, each of whom holds a set of rights to use or license the work, and who are commonly referred to as rights holders.These rights frequently include reproduction, control over derivative works, distribution, public performance, and "moral rights" such as attribution.

    Laws of Copyright

    Copyright enables people to say who can share and re-use their creation. It is a legal right created by the law of a country that grants the creator of an original work exclusive rights for its use and distribution. For the project that I have designed "Transfer Trolley" I can define who can re-use and share my work through the copyright license I adopt for my project, which essentialy is also a potential product for the market.

    Creative Commons

    Creative Commons is a global nonprofit organization that enables sharing and reuse of creativity and knowledge through the provision of free legal tools. Our legal tools help those who want to encourage reuse of their works by offering them for use under generous, standardized terms; those who want to make creative uses of works; and those who want to benefit from this symbiosis. Our vision is to help others realize the full potential of the internet. CC has affiliates all over the world who help ensure our licenses work internationally and who raise awareness of our work.
