Intellectual property is an aspect that is often overlooked during live streaming. However, as an Event Organizer, it is your responsibility to ensure that you have the rights to the content presented in your virtual events. To consult our Terms of use, simply go to the management tool under the Organization module.

The legal firm ROBIC has created three tables to illustrate media distribution. Their research is comprehensive and is aimed at Canadians. We strongly recommend that you consult it to ensure that you comply with intellectual property laws. Use these tables to help you better understand the issues and responsibilities you have as a virtual event organizer.
