Kickstarter has specific policies in place to address copyright and intellectual property issues. This guide will provide clarity on Kickstarter's policies and how they relate to creators and backers. 

Copyright and Intellectual Property Rights

  Copyright protects original works of authorship, including literary, dramatic, musical, and certain other intellectual works. It grants the creator exclusive rights to reproduce, distribute, display, perform, and create derivative works based on their work. 

  Trademarks protect words, phrases, logos, or symbols that identify and distinguish a company's products or services. 

 Patents protect inventions and grant the inventor exclusive rights to make, use, or sell their invention.

 Kickstarter's Policies Regarding Copyright and Intellectual Property

  Creators are solely responsible for ensuring that their project complies with all applicable copyright and intellectual property laws.  They must obtain necessary licenses or permissions to use any copyrighted material in their project.

  Backers have the right to use the rewards they receive in accordance with the terms of the project. For example, if a backer receives a physical product, they have the right to use, display, or dispose of it as they see fit.

  Kickstarter takes copyright infringement seriously and may remove projects that violate copyright laws.

  If a dispute arises regarding intellectual property, Kickstarter encourages both parties to resolve the issue amicably. If a resolution can't be reached, Kickstarter may intervene to investigate the matter further.

  In your project description, specify who owns the copyright to any creative works featured in your project.

  Obtain written permission from copyright holders before using any copyrighted material in your project, including images, music, videos, text, or other creative works.

 Credit any creators whose work you use in your project.

  Consider registering your trademarks or patents for added protection.
