<text><u>Notice:</u> There are several exceptions to the copyright holder���s exclusive rights in Art. 5 of the Computer Program Directive. Pursuant to Art. 5 (2), a licence cannot prohibit you from creating a backup copy if this is necessary to ensure continued use of the program. Furthermore, pursuant to Art. 5 (1), other rights of use are regarded as permitted if they are necessary for the use of the computer program by the lawful acquirer in accordance with its intended purpose.
<p>
��</p>
<u>Note:</u> Germany: see �� 69d German Copyright Act (UrhG). According to Art. 5 (3) of the Computer Program Directive the lawful acquirer may perform all acts of loading, displaying, running, transmission or storage for the analysis of the program, if he is also otherwise entitled to undertake these restricted acts. Thus, Art. 5 (3) aims to avoid the indirect protection of generally unprotectable ideas and principles. As a result, the provision does not enlarge the circle of permissible acts in Art. 5, and allows no further reproductions or modifications of the program.��

<position>before</position>
<text><u>Notice:</u> Loading, running or error correction and the creation of a backup copy necessary to ensure continued use cannot be prohibited by contract. However, other rights of use are only allowed if there are no contradictory provisions in the contractual agreement.
<p> <u>Note (optional):</u> The term ���backup copy��� leaves it open as to whether you could produce several copies, but you would have to prove that a single backup copy was insufficient. (A backup copy is a copy of the sold or licensed program in its original version, but it is never be necessary for the use of a program). Having a backup copy is essential when the original copy is at risk of being damaged or destroyed, and a backup copy has not been delivered by the rightholder or a replacement cannot immediately be supplied.��</p></text>

<text><u>Note (optional):</u> You are permitted to decompile the whole program as long as it is not possible to identify the specific parts of the program necessary to achieve interoperability.
<p>
<u>Note:</u> Reproduction of the source code or the translation of the object code into a source code is permitted. All acts of reproduction which are determined in Art. 4 lit. (a) of the Computer Program Directive , especially loading, displaying, running, transmitting or storing of the computer program, are allowed.</p>
<p>
��</p>
<u>Note (optional):</u> Art. 6 only legalizes such acts for the purpose of decompilation. Therefore, adapting, re-arranging or other changes are not permitted under this exception. It is also important to note that the decompiling exception of Art. 6 does not cover the decompiling of a program for the purpose of adapting it to meet your changed requirements.

<question>
<text>Is the software copyright protected?
<p>
��</p>
<p>
<u>Explanation:</u> Computer programs in any form ��� e.g. software and those programs incorporated into hardware ��� are protected by law. In addition, every phase of the program���s development is protected, including any preparatory design work. The ideas and principles underlying the computer program are not protected, especially interfaces which guarantee interoperability between software and hardware. To be protected by copyright law, the program must be the author's own intellectual creation; there are no further requirements. Consequently, protection is granted for even a minimal degree of creativity (see Art. 1, Directive 2009/24/EC (Computer Program Directive)).</p>

<text>When is a database copyright protected?
<p>
<u>Explanation:</u> A database is copyright protected by reason of way in which its content is selected or arranged. These acts constitute the ���author's intellectual creation���. Other criteria, such as quality or aesthetic value, are not taken into account.��</p>
<p>
<u>Note:</u> If the database is laid out to be complete, which means to include all relevant information of a certain area, it is unlikely that it constitutes an intellectual creation in respect of selection, because in that case there is little room for creativity in the structure.
With regard to arrangement it is likely that electronic databases are not copyright protected, because the intellectual creation expressed in the arrangement is only found in the computer program.</p></text>
<administration>self</administration>
</sectionInfo>
<sectionInfo>
<position>before</position>
<text>Does the inclusion of copyright protected material affect copyright protection?
<p>
<u>Explanation:</u> The incorporation of copyright protected content does not affect the existence of a copyright protection of the database.</p></text>
<administration>self</administration>
</sectionInfo>
<sectionInfo>
<position>before</position>
<text><u>Explanation :</u> In Europe, copyright is protected for the lifetime of the rights holder and until the end of the 70th year after their death.��������������������������
<p>
<em><u>Note:</u> Art. 10 Database Directive is not applicable for the copyright protection of a database.</em></p>
<p>
What about non-EU countries? Is it the same worldwide?</p>
<p>
<u>Explanation:</u> Countries outside the EU may have different copyright terms.
Examples:
USA - 70 years after the death of the author
China - 50 years after the death of the author
Japan - 50 years after the death of the author</p></text>

<text>Is copying or changing the database, or transferring it to a new storage device, allowed?
<p>
<u>Explanation:</u> In general you are not allowed to do any of these things; only the author has the exclusive right to do so. You must seek prior authorization to copy, change or transfer the database.����</p>
<p>
��</p>
<u>Note:</u> Art. 5 Database Directive contains an exhaustive list of restricted acts, and covers rights of reproduction, adaption, translation and arrangement of databases.
<p>

<administration>self</administration>
</sectionInfo>
<sectionInfo>
<position>before</position>
<text><u>Explanation :</u> A lawful user is a person who uses the database with the consent of the right holder. Generally, this consent is given within the contract.
<p>
<u>Note:</u> This provision establishes minimum rights for the lawful user which cannot be waived. Terms of contracts which run counter to this provision are null and void.
</p>
<p> <u>Example:</u> Browsing in the database is a normal use of it, and cannot be restricted by the right holder.</p></text>
<administration>self</administration>
</sectionInfo>
<sectionInfo>
<position>before</position>
<text><u>Notice:</u> You are not allowed to reproduce, alter or migrate the database. If you carry out any of these actions you are infringing Intellectual Property rights.</text>
<administration>self</administration>
</sectionInfo>
<sectionInfo>
<position>before</position>
<text>Who can grant permission?
<p>
<u>Notice:</u>The author or the rightholder can grant permission. According to the Database Directive, the author can only be an individual or a group of individuals. In addition, in some countries, a company or employer may, in law be the holder of the economic rights. For example, if an employee creates a database as part of their employment, it depends on the member state's implementation of the Directive as to whether the employer or the employee is the rightholder.������������������</p>
<p>
<u>Note:</u> : In the UK and the Netherlands, the employer has the first ownership of any copyright in the database.
In Germany it is generally assumed that the employee is the rightholder, unless otherwise determined in their contract of employment.</p></text>

</sectionInfo>
<sectionInfo>

<text>Which rights must be granted in the contract with regard to long-term preservation?

<p>
<u>Explanation:</u> A lawful user has the unlimited right to use the insubstantial part of the database as established in the contract. So, in general, extraction and re-use by a lawful user do not infringe the sui generis right. But if the act meets the criteria of a repeated and systematic extraction and/re-use, then it will fall within the provisions of the law.����������������������������������������������������������</p>
<p>
<u>Note:</u> Repetition means that it happens more than once.
Systematic signifies that the extraction and /or re-use occur according to a plan.</p></text>

<text>Has there been substantial investment in the database?
<p>
<u>Explanation:</u> The sui generis right protects the substantial investment made in obtaining, verifying and preserving the content of a database. Note (for print-out): Recital 7 Database Directive (Directive 96/9/EG) mentions that every ���human, technical and financial resource��� used to achieve the database is an investment. More specifically, Recital 40 mentions the expenses of time, money and energy to show what is covered by the term ���investment���.</p>

<question>
<text>Do you want to extract or re-use substantial parts of the database? <p>
<u>Explanation:</u> Substantiality is measured by qualitative and/or quantitative criteria. Quantity refers to the volume/amount of material which is extracted and/or re-used in comparison to the whole amount of independent material, which is stored in the database. Quality refers to the amount of investment which was necessary to obtain, verify and present the content extracted and/or re-used.��</p>

The text must contain a minimal standard of originality in order to qualify for copyright. The use of stylistic means that distinguish the text from the average is sufficient. The level of originality for academic texts needs to be higher than for literary texts. The selection and arrangement of the content constitutes an intellectual creation.</p></text>

<text><u>Explanation:</u> Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable ���natural person��� ��� an individual person, as opposed to a legally created entity ��� (the 'data subject'). An identifiable person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, by reference to an identification number or by one or more factors specific to their physical, physiological, mental, economic, cultural or social identity.

<question>
<text>Is it possible to anonymize the data you want to preserve?
<u>Explanation:</u> One way to circumvent the regulations of data privacy laws is to make the personal data you are preserving anonymous. This requires the deletion of any information related to a specific person. Anonymizing personal data may be a realistic option or just a theoretical possibility, depending on the re-use scenarios. If the preserving party is only interested in those parts of a data set which are non-personal, the irreversible anonymization of all personal information may be a possibility, thus circumventing the regulations of data protection laws. This option of making data anonymous may be of interest e.g., for research institutions. If, for instance, they only want to re-run a scientific workflow without knowing who ran or initiated the process, they could preserve this anonymized data without any problems. (For example, preserving the network activity of an intranet and replacing user information with randomized content). But if the intention of the preserver is to store all business data (including payroll information, information relevant to tax law, and other business process information) in one digital preservation store, an anonymization may not be possible, or at least not in their interest. If the basic concept of the Digital Preservation system is to preserve every relevant piece of information needed to exhume and rerun a process in the future, personal information such as contact information may be important for the exhumation process. Therefore, in this case, the option of anonymization will remain a theoretical option.

<question>
<text>Is the transfer of personal customer data necessary for the performance of a contract between your company and the customer, i.e. does it oblige you to transfer your customer���s personal data?
<u>Explanation:</u> According to Art. 26 lit. b) Directive 95/46/EC, transferring personal data is permitted if it is necessary for the performance of a contract between the processor and the data subject. However, this only applies if the data processing in the particular case is as well necessary for the fulfilment of the contract. Transfer is also permitted if it is necessary for the performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken in response to the data subject's request. But this ���necessity���, given by the Directive, is interpreted very strictly by data protection authorities. Therefore, it is not readily possible to ���create��� a necessity by installing, e.g. an external central payroll mainframe in a third country outside the EU/EEA. In this case, many European data protection authorities will classify data transfer to this external mainframe (e.g. for billing purposes) as not necessary for the performance of the contract. They argue that although the transfer may be useful (e.g. because it is cheaper or easier to coordinate a worldwide centralized payroll organization), this kind of processing could also be done within the EU/EEA, and is therefore not necessary for the performance of the contract. The same classification applies to a transfer to the external data storage of a digital preservation system. This kind of processing (preservation/storing) could be done within the EU/EEA too. Therefore, the exception ���necessary for the performance of a contract��� may not provide a digital preservation system with a strong legal basis for international data transfer, unless the main purpose of the contract between the data transferor and the data subject is not the ���storage of personal data in a third country���.

<question>
<text>Is the transfer of personal customer data necessary for the performance of a contract between your company and the customer, e.g. it obliges you to transfer your customer���s personal data?
<u>Explanation:</u> According to Art. 26 lit. b) Directive 95/46/EC, processing of personal data is permitted if it is necessary for the performance of a contract between the processor and the data subject. However, this only applies if the data processing in the particular case is as well necessary for the fulfilment of the contract. The transfer is also permitted if it is necessary for the performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller, or the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken in response to the data subject's request. But this ���necessity���, given by the Directive, is interpreted very strictly by data protection authorities. Therefore, it is not readily possible to ���create��� a necessity by installing, e.g. an external central payroll mainframe in a third country outside the EU/EEA. In this case, many European data protection authorities will classify data transfer to this external mainframe (e.g. for billing purposes) as not necessary for the performance of the contract. They argue that although the transfer may be useful (e.g. because it is cheaper or easier to coordinate a worldwide centralized payroll organization), this kind of processing could also be done within the EU/EEA, so it is not necessary for the performance of the contract. The same classification applies to transfer to the external data storage of a digital preservation system. This kind of processing (preservation/storing) could also be done within the EU/EEA. Therefore, the exception ���necessary for the performance of a contract��� may not provide a digital preservation system with a strong legal basis for international data transfers, unless the main purpose of the contract between the data transferor and the data subject is not the ���storage of personal data in a third country���.

<text><u>Explanation:</u> By establishing such rules, a company imposes upon itself legally binding rules regarding the handling of personal data. As a result, adequate data protection levels can be ensured within the whole company (group). Therefore, the customer���s consent is not necessary. However, the rules have to meet all European and relevant national data protection requirements, and the data protection agencies have to officially approve these rules.
<u>Note:</u> You comply with data protection laws, if you comply with the officially approved Binding Corporate Rules.</text>

<question>
<text>Does this contract also cover long-term preservation?
<u>Explanation:</u> If a company wants to use a long-term preservation system to store all business processes and services, including all information about their (former) customers, for the next 80 years, this storage of data is not covered by Art. 7 lit. b) of the Directive 95/46/EC, because in general a long-term preservation is not directly necessary for the performance of a contract between the processor and the data subject.
Is it necessary to preserve customer information even if the main contractual obligations are fulfilled?
<u>Explanation:</u> In general, customer information has to be stored because it is necessary to fulfil, e.g. a sales contract. But long-term preservation of this data is not necessary, because you do not need this customer information after you fulfilled your contractual obligations. Because of the principle of data minimization, you should not preserve this data.

<question>
<text>Have you already contracted an Escrow Agreement?
<p>
<u>Hint:</u> Escrow Agreement is a contract between the software Developer, the software User and a neutral third party called the Escrow Agent. This contract establishes the obligation of the software developer to deposit the source code and the relevant material at the Escrow Agent. In case a triggering event occurs the Escrow Agents hands over the deposit material to the software user. </p></text>

<question>
<text>What risks are covered by the existing Escrow Agreement?
<p><u>Hint for IP-Right Assignment: </u></p>
<p> An assignment of intellectual property rights means the transfer of those rights absolutely from the owner of this rights to another person or organization in return for payment. On the assignment of your rights to an assignee, the assignee becomes the proprietor of those rights and the ownership of the IPR would have transferred to the assignee as beneficial owner. The assignee will usually require an assignment with full title guarantee, which means no encumbrances on the IPR such as a charge. The assignee derives his rights from the transfer of the IPR and on the signing of the assignment can do all acts in relation to the IPR as though it belonged to him. An example of such acts includes the right to initiate proceedings for infringement of the IPR.</p></text>

<p>
<u>Hint for IP-Right Assignment: </u></p>
<p>
An assignment of intellectual property rights means the transfer of those rights absolutely from the owner of this rights to another person or organization in return for payment. On the assignment of your rights to an assignee, the assignee becomes the proprietor of those rights and the ownership of the IPR would have transferred to the assignee as beneficial owner. The assignee will usually require an assignment with full title guarantee, which means no encumbrances on the IPR such as a charge. The assignee derives his rights from the transfer of the IPR and on the signing of the assignment can do all acts in relation to the IPR as though it belonged to him. An example of such acts includes the right to initiate proceedings for infringement of the IPR.</p></text>

<text><u>Notice:</u> The burden of proof for correct and complete information lies with the physician. With regard to malpractice, the outcome depends on the country you are working in. In some countries, such as Austria, there is so-called prima-facie evidence. Firstly the patient has to prove the damage (bodily harm). If they can do so, it is sufficient for them to prove that malpractice has increased significantly the probability of bodily harm being caused. If certain preconditions are met, the burden of proving a causal relationship between fault and damage may even be shifted towards the physician. Record-keeping may then help by providing exonerating evidence.</text>

<question>
<text>Does your medical data system comply with the necessary requirements?
<p>
<u>Explanation:</u> National regulations as well as the law of the EU can constitute record-keeping obligations for medical data. While national regulations can be set unconditional (in accordance to the constitution), the EU is only empowered to arise obligations in special fields. Some of those can be found in Art. 168 (4) TFEU, which empowers the EU to adopt harmonization measures setting high standards of quality and safety for organs, substances of human origins and medicinal products and devices.</p>

<question>
<text><u>Explanation:</u> ���� 2 ���� 2 ff. Gentechnik-Aufzeichnungsverordnung have introduced a number of obligations to document and preserve as well as numerous modalities for preservation.
Pursuant to �� 3 (1) documentations must not be made unreadable and any subsequent changes to the original data must be clearly highlighted.
�� 3 (2) allows electronic preservation under the condition that no subsequent changes of the content of the data medium are possible. During the retention period the data must be short term accessible. Pursuant to �� 4 the length of retention periods depend on the security level of the genetic engineering operations (for more details see �� 7 (1) Gentechnikgesetz): 10 years for operations with security level 1, 30 years for operations with security level 2-4 and releases of genetically modified organisms. Do you comply with these obligations?

<question>
<text>Do you use e-invoices?
<p>
<u>Explanation:</u> Due to a lack of competence of the EU, legislation covering direct and indirect taxation is not wide-ragingly harmonized between the member states. There is a greater degree of harmonization in the field of Value Added Tax (VAT). The VAT Directive is an example of EU legislation which contains provisions for Digital Preservation actions.</p>
<p>
<u>Explanation:</u> Directive 2010/45/EU, which had to be applied by member states from 1 January 2013, establishes equal treatment of paper and electronic invoices. Electronic invoicing is covered if the customer accepts receipt of invoices by electronic means (Art. 232 VAT Directive).</p>

<text><u>Note:</u> Many pieces of legislation and regulation exist which give the required retention periods for documents (one of the most important is the Limitation Act 1980, which applies to England and Wales). The issue is complex. There are useful publications which identify some retention requirements; for example, 'The ICSA Guide to Document Retention' lists the retention requirements for different areas of law, e.g. company law. In general, UK legislation does not state the format to be used for storage.

<text>Did you observe restrictions on systems managing such files?
<p>
