About this statute

Contracting Parties should promote cross-border exchange of accessible format copies and share information to help authorized entities find one another. This article says the treaty does not reduce obligations or rights that contracting parties already have under other treaties. This article defines key terms used in the treaty, including “works,” “accessible format copy,” and “authorized entity,” and it requires authorized entities to follow practices that limit accessible copies to eligible beneficiaries and discourage unauthorized copying. Contracting Parties should protect the privacy of beneficiary persons when implementing the treaty’s limitations and exceptions. This article defines who counts as a beneficiary person.
