According to the Romanian Law on Copyright and Neighboring Rights:
Law no. 8/1996 of March 14, 1996 Full text
Chapter 3. Article 9. The following shall not benefit from the legal protection accorded to copyright:
- (a) the ideas, theories, concepts, discoveries and inventions contained in a work, whatever the manner of the adoption, writing, explanation or expression thereof;
- (b) official texts of a political, legislative, administrative or judicial nature, and official translations thereof;
- (c) official symbols of the State, public authorities and organizations, such as armorial bearings, seals, flags, emblems, shields, badges and medals;
- (d) means of payment;
- (e) news and press information;
- (f) simple facts and data.
Therefore this is assumed to be in the public domain worldwide, although some of the above categories may be subject to usage restrictions within Romania. |
