What if I honestly believe that the copy of the computer software, movie, television drama or music recording that I possess for my business is a licensed copy, but it turns out to be infringing?
A person who possesses an infringing copy of computer software, a movie, a television drama or music recording for use in his business will not commit an offence if he or she does not know and has no reason to believe that the copy in question is an infringing copy. In case your business were suspected of breaking the law, showing that you have followed the “dos” and “don’ts” set out in question 9 could help you to demonstrate that you did not know and had no reason to believe that the copy is an infringing copy. The court will decide ultimately on the basis of all relevant facts and circumstances.
