Ley No. 65-00 sobre Derecho de Autor, arts. 30-32 (Limitaciones y Excepciones al Derecho de Autor)
In force since .
A copyright and text and data mining (TDM) rule binding public and private bodies.
- Audit expectation
- none
What it requires
- Do not reproduce or transform a substantial part of a copyrighted work, including for training a model on scraped text, outside the law's quotation, teaching-reproduction, or press-review and news-of-the-day exceptions, without the rights holder's authorization.
- A compilation's or database's own selection or arrangement is protected as a literary work if it is a creative one, but the underlying data or materials are not themselves protected by this law.
These lines are LexLint's reading of the law's text.
In the frameworks
- NIST AI RMF
- MAP 4.1Approaches for mapping AI technology and legal risks of its components – including the use of third-party data or software – are in place, followed, and documented, as are risks of infringement of a third party’s intellectual property or other rights.
Our reading of where this law's duties sit in each framework. It never says that running a control meets the law. How we read a framework against the law
What it makes you log
Logging duty
Articles 30 to 32 frame and set out the limitations on copyright (restrictive reading, quotation with the author's name and title, reprographic copies for teaching). Naming the author and title in a quotation (Article 31) is an attribution condition on the use, not a log or record the user keeps. None of the three articles imposes a duty to create, keep, produce or review a log or record, and none carries a territorial clause, so the hook is empty.

What this law does
Article 30 requires the copyright law's limitations and exceptions to be read restrictively, so as not to conflict with the work's normal exploitation or unjustifiably prejudice the rights holder. Article 31 permits quoting an author by transcribing necessary passages, provided they are not so extensive as to amount to a simulated and substantial reproduction of the work, with the author's name and the work's title cited.
Article 32 permits reprographic reproduction, for teaching or examinations at educational institutions, of lawfully published newspaper or periodical articles or short excerpts of lawfully published works, where the use is not for sale or profit.
Article 2(12) protects a compilation or database's creative selection or arrangement as a literary work, but the same clause expressly withholds that protection from the underlying data or materials themselves, so Dominican law confers a compilation-copyright model rather than a sui generis database right.
