Website rights cover the legal framework around an artist's web presence — hosting, DMCA takedown procedures, terms-of-service, privacy policies, and content licensing for embedded media. Every artist site should have proper DMCA compliance and a music-cleared media policy.
DMCA Section 512 safe harbor protects user-generated-content platforms from infringement liability.
Artists embedding their own music on their own site need to ensure they own/license both the master and composition.
GDPR + CCPA require privacy notices for global fan-collection sites.
These are official government bodies — copyright offices, IP authorities, and statutory royalty boards. They administer registrations, set rates, and adjudicate disputes. Always start here when questions of law arise.
Trade associations, performing rights organizations, publishers, advocacy groups, clearance houses, and licensing companies — all non-government entities active in this rights area.
