The Copyright Transfer Contract is a crucial legal instrument used in Denmark when transferring ownership of copyrighted works from one party to another. This document is essential when creators, authors, or copyright holders wish to permanently transfer their copyright to publishers, companies, or other entities. The contract must comply with the Danish Copyright Act (Ophavsretsloven) and consider EU copyright directives, particularly regarding moral rights which receive strong protection under Danish law. It's commonly used in publishing, media, software development, and creative industries where complete transfer of copyright ownership is necessary for commercial exploitation of works. The document includes detailed provisions about the scope of transfer, consideration, warranties, and specific usage rights, while addressing Danish legal requirements for copyright transfers.
