Questionnaire

A. To whom does your country's law grant initial ownership? (please indicate all that apply)

1. The author (human creator) of the work

   1. Does your country's law define who is an author?
   2. For joint works (works on which more than one creator has collaborated), does your law define joint authorship? What is the scope of each co-author's ownership? (may joint authors exploit separately, or only under common accord)?

2. Employers

   1. Under what conditions, e.g., formal employment agreement, in writing and signed? Creation of the work within the scope of employment?

3. Commissioning parties

   1. All commissioned works, or limited to certain categories?
   2. Under what conditions, e.g., commissioning agreement, in writing and signed by both parties?

4. The person or entity who takes the initiative of the work's creation

   (e.g. Producers; publishers) of certain kinds of works, e.g., audiovisual works; collective works

   1. Scope of ownership of, e.g. all rights, or rights only as to certain exploitations; what rights do contributors to such works retain?
5. Other instances of initial ownership vested in a person or entity other than the actual human creator? (Other than 6, below.)
6. If your country's law recognizes copyright in AI-generated works, who is vested with original ownership? (e.g., the person providing the prompts to request an output? The creator of the LLM model and/or training data? someone else?)

[b. For presumptions of transfers, see II (transfers of ownership, below)]

B. Private international law consequences

1. To what country's law do your country's courts (or legislature) look to determine initial ownership: Country of origin? Country with the greatest connections to the work and the author(s)? Country(ies) for which protection is claimed?
