Ms. Ma: Copyright registration helped recover RMB 120,000 in overdue course licensing fees
Client Profile: Corporate compliance trainer with nine years of course-development experience.
Starting Point
A partner continued using Ms. Ma's Supplier Compliance Management course after a trial agreement, but the licensing fees remained unpaid.
Evidence Turning Point
She preserved the infringing webpages, retrieved draft emails and cloud-file versions from three years earlier, and organized a timeline showing when the work was created, how it evolved, and what the partner had used.
Outcome Snapshot
After legal negotiations based on the contract and ownership evidence, the partner signed a licensing agreement and paid RMB 120,000 in historical fees. Two additional platforms later licensed the course, adding RMB 80,000 in annual income.
Value
Registration did not replace the contract or enforcement process, but it clarified ownership, versions, and creation dates.
