Copyright Notification

mm532_copyright_notice.mp4

If an asset requires accepting copyright disclaimer before being downloaded, the administrative user can enable the 'Copyright Notification' feature on such an asset from the metadata editor. As a result, other users will be shown a copyright disclaimer and be asked to accept it, before the asset can be downloaded.

Setting the copyright disclaimer

The copyright disclaimer is set per-asset and can be turned on or updated from the metadata editor.

The disclaimer is set by opening the metadata editor and setting the desired values for the metadata fields designated to hold information about the copyright notification.

There are two types of copyright notification that the user can choose between:

  • predefined disclaimer (selecting one of the available options from the drop-down list will result in displaying a pre-set copyright text to other users),

  • custom disclaimer (the administrative user can set a completely new disclaimer for this specific asset).

...

If both the predefined and custom values are set, the user will be asked to agree only to the predefined disclaimer.

If none of the values are set, the user will not be asked to agree to any disclaimer for that asset.

Accepting the copyright notification

When attempting to download the asset with copyright limitations, a copyright disclaimer for this asset will be displayed for the user. After the user consents to the disclaimer, the download will proceed as normal. The user agreement is logged in an audit trail that can be reviewed by authorized users.
