What this law does
Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.
Article 56 bis gives press publishers the reproduction and making-available rights of articles 43 and 44 for the online use of their press publications by information-society service providers. The right does not reach private or non-commercial use by individual users, acts of hyperlinking, or the use of isolated words or very short extracts of a press publication.
It expires two years after publication, counted from the January 1 following the date of first publication, and does not apply to a press publication first published before 6 June 2019.
Authors of works integrated in a press publication are entitled to an appropriate share of the revenue the publisher receives from information-society service providers, and article 56 ter makes any transfer or licence of an author's rights to a publisher a sufficient legal basis for the publisher to claim a share of statutory-exception compensation for uses of the work.
The amending law's own text does not state a specific entry-into-force day for these provisions beyond the Journal officiel publication mechanism.
