Inclusion of the words all rights reserved is important in terms of a published work because otherwise certain limited rights are assumed in the laws of some countries. Lastly copyright law is civil law not criminal law. If someone contravenes your copyright then you will have to take them to court in the country where the infringement took place. Effectively for most people this means that if you publish a work on the internet then you have given it to the world.Copyright ©2006, yourname. All rights reserved.
Generaly speaking if your contracting for a company in this way, then you would assign the copyright in toto to the that company, so it would be their name at the bottom of the page. The only time this may differ is if some of the photographic or graphic material is produced by someone who only licenses the material under a limited right issue, in which case you might have to include their copyright statement as well.Shmit said:if i am making a web page for a company, and i have no affiliation with that company, do i put my name for the copyright, or do i still put that companies name?
