Press publishers established in a member state hold an exclusive right to authorise or prohibit the reproduction and online making-available of their press publications by information-society service providers, per new Article 36(1) of Cyprus's Intellectual Property and Related Rights Law. The right does not reach private or non-commercial use by individual users, per Article 36(2).
Nor does it reach mere hyperlinks that only lead to the article, or the use of single words or very short extracts, per Article 36(3). The right lasts two years from the publication's release, calculated from 1 January of the following year, and does not apply to publications first published before 6 June 2019, per Article 36(7). Authors whose works are incorporated in a press publication are entitled to an appropriate share of the revenue publishers receive for its use, per Article 36(9).
