2. Copyright Ownership
2.1. Foundational Principles
Copyright protection is granted automatically from the moment of a work’s creation and does not require formal registration to be legally protected.

All content created by employees of Atmostfear Entertainment within the scope of their employment is considered a “work made for hire.” Atmostfear Entertainment is the sole author and owner of all copyrights in such content from the moment of its creation.

No content shall be commissioned or accepted from any non-employee without a signed, written agreement. This agreement must explicitly transfer all exclusive, perpetual, and worldwide patrimonial rights to Atmostfear Entertainment for use in all media and formats, whether now known or hereafter devised. This includes the specific right to use the contribution for data analysis and as part of datasets for machine learning or AI training, a measure designed to prevent future legal challenges based on new technologies.
