Authors The author is the individual or human person creating a work. In general, ownership of rights in the work corresponds to the author due to the mere fact of his/her own original creation, by the principle of automatism, without requiring any additional formality or registration.

It does not become a part of public domain and is not subject to any statute of limitation.
