Introduction
The purpose of this WebQuest is to provide information regarding Copyright, Fair Use, Intellectual Property, Personal Rights Violations and Privacy.
Copyright is intended to protect the originator (Author, Composer, Artist) from

used as your own work.
Fair Use in its most general sense, is any coping of copyrighted material done for
a limited and “transformative” purpose, such as to comment upon, criticize, or
parody a copyrighted work. If your use qualifies as a fair use, then it would not be
considered an illegal infringement.
Intellectual Property consists of items that you have created that are unique and
That provide you with an economic benefit. Intellectual Property includes Inventions, Designs, Original works of authorship and Trade Secrets.
Personal Rights Violations occur when your personal rights have been violated by
the use of your Intellectual Property or Copyright infringement with your original
work.
Privacy includes both (COPPA) Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act which protects
the privacy of children under 13 years of age and on operations of other websites or
online services that have actual knowledge that they are collecting personal information
online from a child under 13 years of age. (FERPA) Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act which ask schools for written consent before disclosing a student’s
personally identifiable information to individuals other than his or her parents.
