Copyright Registration
Copyright Registration for Original Works
Copyright protects original literary, artistic, musical and dramatic works, cinematograph films, sound recordings and computer software. Although copyright exists from creation, registration with the Copyright Office provides recorded evidence of ownership that is useful in disputes. Certsure supports you with the application and documentation.
How Certsure helps with Copyright
Certsure Certification is a consultancy based in Lucknow, working with organisations across India. We help you understand the requirements, close the gaps and get ready for assessment — gap analysis, documentation, implementation support, training, internal audits and support during the external audit. The certificate, licence, registration or report itself is granted by the relevant authority, accreditation board or independent auditor.
