Copyright law grants the owner of a copyright the exclusive right to reproduce, distribute, perform, and display their work, and to create derivative works based on their original work.

Copyright law is designed to encourage creativity and innovation by giving creators control over their works. This allows creators to profit from their work and provides an incentive to create new works. However, it is also important to balance the interests of creators with the public interest in accessing and using creative works.
