Verklaringen

Tijdens de Diplomatieke Conferentie inzake zekere auteursrecht- en andere daaraan verwante problemen, welke is gehouden te Genève van 2 tot en met 20 december 1996, zijn door de Verdragsluitende Partijen nog de volgende verklaringen¹ overeengekomen:

Agreed statement concerning Article 1

It is understood that Article 1(2) clarifies the relationship between rights in phonograms under this Treaty and copyright in works embodied in the phonograms. In cases where authorization is needed from both the author of a work embodied in the phonogram and a performer or producer owning rights in the phonogram, the need for the authorization of the author does not cease to exist because the authorization of the performer or producer is also required, and vice versa.

It is further understood that nothing in Article 1(2) precludes a Contracting Party from providing exclusive rights to a performer or producer of phonograms beyond those required to be provided under this Treaty.

Agreed statement concerning Article 2(b)

It is understood that the definition of phonogram provided in Article 2(b) does not suggest that rights in the phonogram are in any way affected through their incorporation into a cinematographic or other audiovisual work.

Agreed statement concerning Articles 2(e), 8, 9, 12, and 13

As used in these Articles, the expressions ``copies" and ``original and copies," being subject to the right of distribution and the right of rental under the said Articles, refer exclusively to fixed copies that can be put into circulation as tangible objects.

Agreed statement concerning Article 3

It is understood that the reference in Articles 5(a) and 16(a)(iv) of the Rome Convention to ``national of another Contracting State" will, when applied to this Treaty, mean, in regard to an intergovernmental organization that is a Contracting Party to this Treaty, a national of one of the countries that is a member of that organization.

Agreed statement concerning Article 3(2)

For the application of Article 3(2), it is understood that fixation means the finalization of the master tape (``bande-mère").

Agreed statement concerning Articles 7, 11 and 16

The reproduction right, as set out in Articles 7 and 11, and the exceptions permitted thereunder through Article 16, fully apply in the digital environment, in particular to the use of performances and phonograms in digital form. It is understood that the storage of a protected performance or phonogram in digital form in an electronic medium constitutes a reproduction within the meaning of these Articles.

Agreed statement concerning Article 15

It is understood that Article 15 does not represent a complete resolution of the level of rights of broadcasting and communication to the public that should be enjoyed by performers and phonogram producers in the digital age. Delegations were unable to achieve consensus on differing proposals for aspects of exclusivity to be provided in certain circumstances or for rights to be provided without the possibility of reservations, and have therefore left the issue to future resolution.

Agreed statement concerning Article 15

It is understood that Article 15 does not prevent the granting of the right conferred by this Article to performers of folklore and producers of phonograms recording folklore where such phonograms have not been published for commercial gain.

Agreed statement concerning Article 16

The agreed statement concerning Article 10 (on Limitations and Exceptions) of the WIPO Copyright Treaty is applicable mutatis mutandis also to Article 16 (on Limitations and Exceptions) of the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty.

Agreed statement concerning Article 19

The agreed statement concerning Article 12 (on Obligations concerning Rights Management Information) of the WIPO Copyright Treaty is applicable mutatis mutandis also to Article 19 (on Obligations concerning Rights Management Information) of the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty.

1 Onder de volgende verklaring en het volgende voorbehoud:

``Pursuant to Article 3(3), Japan will not apply the criterion of publication concerning the protection of producers of phonograms.

Pursuant to Article 15(3), Japan will apply the provisions of Article 15(1) to the extent that Party grants the protection provided for by Article 15(1); and Japan will apply the provisions of Article 15(1) in respect of direct uses for broadcasting or for wire diffusion, but Japan will not apply the provisions of Article 15(1) to the phonograms made available to the public, by wire or wireless means, in such a way that members of the public may access them from a place and a time individually chosen by them.".
