What it requires

  • A database or compilation is protected only where its selection, coordination, or arrangement is original; a non-original collection of data or facts is not protected as such.
  • Do not rely on the personal-use copying privilege to justify copying a database or compilation of data; that privilege does not reach it.

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.

Logging duty

Article 5(l) protects anthologies, compilations and databases that are original in the selection, coordination or arrangement of their contents, and Article 48 puts a database or compilation outside the personal-use copy exception. Neither sets a duty to create, keep or produce a log or record, and Peru has no separate right for an unoriginal database. The cited articles carry no territorial clause.

Research summary

Legal information, not legal advice. This is LexLint's own research summary of a public legal source, and it creates no attorney-client relationship. For decisions that matter, consult qualified counsel in the relevant jurisdiction. About LexLint

Article 5(l) protects an anthology or compilation of works or expressions of folklore, and a database, as a protected work only where the collection is original in the selection, coordination, or arrangement of its contents, so Peru confers no sui generis database right and protects a database only under ordinary copyright's originality standard.

Article 48 permits copying a published sound or audiovisual recording for exclusively personal use, but expressly excludes a database or compilation of data from that personal-use privilege.
