Copyright

The definition of copyright is the following; "the exclusive and assignable legal right, given to the originator for a fixed number of years, to print, publish, perform, film, or record literary, artistic, or musical material".

We sent them another email as they hadn't replied to us after 1 month. Here is a screenshot of the second email that we sent.
