Data, in its raw or unstructured form, has become a valuable economic asset, and its protection is a crucial subject for the intellectual property community.
Alongside more than 40 AIPPI specialists from 23 countries worldwide, Catherine Verneret has written the chapter concerns the legal framework of raw data in France. Her chapter addresses topics such as :
- is there any intellectual property right available to protect raw data;
- the nature of such intellectual property rights;
- contracts on data and which legal boundaries stand in the way of contract drafting;
- liability for data products or services; and
- questions of international private law and cross-border portability.
