Spain, Artículo 32.2 Ley de Propiedad Intelectual (AEDE levy)

Ley 21/2014, de 4 de noviembre, por la que se modifica el texto refundido de la Ley de Propiedad Intelectual, BOE num. 268,

A press publishers' right rule binding public and private bodies.

Instrument type
an act of a legislature

What it requires

  • Repealed and replaced by Spain's transposition of Digital Single Market (DSM) Art. 15 through Real Decreto-ley 24/2021, so read this as context rather than a live duty.
  • While it applied, aggregation services making available non-significant fragments of periodical content needed no authorization but owed publishers and other rightholders an equitable compensation, a non-waivable right exercised through collective management organizations, so publishers could not waive it.

These lines are LexLint's reading of the law's text.

This Spanish member-state law (not an EU instrument) provided that content-aggregation services making available non-significant fragments of content from periodical publications or regularly updated websites, for an informative, opinion-forming or entertainment purpose, needed no authorization, without prejudice to the publisher's or other rightholders' right to equitable compensation. That right was non-waivable and was exercised through collective management organizations. Real Decreto-ley 24/2021 later rewrote Article 32.2 when it transposed Article 15 of Directive (EU) 2019/790.
