Piracy Prevention
Courageous Leadership actively and aggressively enforces its intellectual property
rights to the fullest extent of the law. Courageous Leadership works closely with the Software
Publishers Association (SPA) and the Business Software Alliance (BSA) to combat
software piracy worldwide.
Software Piracy
Software piracy (the illegal copying of software programs) is
a worldwide problem--more than $11 billion is lost to piracy every year! Because
software is valuable, and it is easy to create an exact copy of a program from
a single computer, software piracy is widespread.
The illegal copying of software programs is a crime! In the United States and
many other countries, copyright law provides for severe civil and criminal penalties
for the unauthorized reproduction or distribution of copyrighted material. Copyrighted
material includes, but is not limited to, computer programs and accompanying
sounds, images and text. Under U.S. law, infringement may result in civil damages
of up to $150,000 and/or criminal penalties of up to five years imprisonment
and/or a $250,000 fine.
Please join Courageous Leadership in its piracy prevention efforts. You can report incidents
of software piracy from this site at Report Piracy.
Also, you can help your business avoid serious problems with sound software
asset management practices as explained in the section below.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at piracy@courageousleadership.com.
Software Asset Management
It is important to manage software well, just as you would any
other valuable company asset, in order to avoid serious problems. Courageous Leadership aggressively
enforces our company's proprietary rights under the U.S. copyright laws, but
we know that poor software asset management often keeps people from complying
with the law.
For more information and tools to help your business by practicing sound software
asset management practices, please refer to the BSA (http://www.bsa.org)
and/or the SIIA (http://www.siia.net) web
sites for further guidance and information.
