(Effective as of April 14, 2008)

Basic policy on use of articles

In the following table, it is presumed that (i) the articles will be used after the date of publication, (ii) that they will not be used for profit, and (iii) that their use will not unfairly infringe on the IEICEfs interests. Requests must be submitted in all cases where articles are used for profit. Decisions on whether or not to permit for-profit use will be made by the copyright administration committee. Requests for use are also unnecessary when articles are used within the scope defined by the Copyright Law (article 30 (copying for personal use), article 32 (quotations), article 35 (copying at educational establishments), etc.).
