- You may report the bare facts of the day's events freely: section 5(5) puts news of the day outside copyright. The author's own wording of that news stays protected, so do not copy it on the strength of this exclusion.
- You may make fair use of a work, including quotation, criticism, review and journalistic reporting (section 19), judged by the purpose and character of the use, the character of the work, the scope of the use relative to the whole, and the impact on the work's value and market; there is no separate cap.

- An app operating a database of the personal data of a person in Israel, above the small-collection thresholds already recorded on this jurisdiction's privacy-topic row, must prescribe a written data security procedure covering physical protection, access authorizations, identification and authentication, encryption, and incident handling, scaled to the security-level tier (basic, medium, or high) that the volume and sensitivity of the data it holds places it in.
- At the medium or high tier, run an automatic mechanism monitoring access to the database's systems, retained at least 24 months, and appoint a data security officer where required.
- At the high tier, conduct a data security risk assessment and a penetration test of the database's systems at least once every 18 months, and hold a quarterly internal discussion of security incidents.
- At the medium or high tier, conduct an internal or external audit of compliance with these Regulations at least once every 24 months.
- Where an external service provider is given access to the database, agree in writing on the data and systems it may access, its reporting and data-destruction duties, and monitor its compliance.
