jurisdiction specific
- Chile = copyright act - art. 86 ...all the patrimonial rights as unrenunciable by authors
- Spain = similar issues in Spain as Chile: PD = waived rights and some rights can not be waived.
- UK may require a signature for waiving moral right (Cite needed)
>> 87 (2)" Any of those rights may be waived by instrument in writing signed by the person giving up the right."
>> 87(4) of course gives us some wiggle room but I'm not sure how well it would work out with regards to moral rights.
- German Moral rights unalienable (Cite needed)
- other?
