Copyright gives the creator of a work the right to act against any unauthorized reproduction or publication of his work. Even if the creator has transferred the copyright to a third party, there are still some rights that the creator can invoke. These are personality rights or moral rights.
Personality Rights
The maker’s personality rights are not aimed at the economic exploitation of his or her work but relate to the reputation of the maker. For example, the maker has the right to have his name mentioned with his work and the maker can take action against a publication of his work with a different name underneath.
The maker can also object to a change in the title of his work.
In addition, the maker can object to changes to the work, unless this is unreasonable, and the maker can object to the mutilation or deformation of his work.
Waiving of Personality Rights
The maker can contractually waive the above rights. The first 3 rights can be waived. However, the maker cannot waive the right to oppose the mutilation or deformation of the work.
