{SECTION I: INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS}

Article QQ.I.1:267 {Internet Service Provider Liability}
[CL/BN/NZ/MY/VN/CA/SG/MX propose; AU/US oppose: 1.268 Each Party shall limit the liability of, or the availability of remedies against, internet service providers269 [when acting as intermediaries270], for infringement of copyright or related rights that take place on or through communication networks, in relation to the provision or use of their services.]
[CA propose: 2. Limitations referred to in the previous paragraph shall cover at least the following functions:

  • a. mere conduit, which consist of the provision of the means to transmit information provided by a user, or the means of access to a communication network;
  • b. hosting of information at the request of a user of the hosting services
  • c. caching carried out through an automated process, when the internet service provider:
  •      
  • i. does not modify information other than for technical reasons;
  •       ii. ensures that any directions related to the caching of information that are specified in a manner widely recognized and used by industry are complied with; and
  •       iii. does not interfere with the use of technology that is lawful and widely recognized and used by the industry in order to obtain data on the use of information
  • ;
  • d. providing an information location tool, by making reproductions of copyright material in an automated manner, and communicating the reproductions.]

  • [CA propose: 3. Qualification by an internet service provider for the limitations as to each function in the previous paragraph shall be considered separately from qualification for the limitations as to each other function. Eligibility for the limitations in the previous paragraph may not be conditioned on the internet service provider monitoring its service, or affirmatively seeking facts indicating infringing activity.]--FOOTNOTES--

  • (a) [CA/NZ/CL/VN/MX propose: procedures for notifications of claimed infringement and for] removing or disabling access to infringing material [CA/CL/MX oppose: upon notification from the right holder through a procedure established by each Party]; and]
  • [CA/NZ/CL/VN273 propose: (b) legal incentives for internet service providers to comply with these procedures, or remedies against internet service providers who fail to comply.]]

  • [CA propose: 4. Each Party shall provide legal incentives for internet service providers to comply, or remedies against internet service providers who fail to comply, with any procedures established in each party's law for:
  • (a) effective notifications of claimed infringement; or
  • (b) removing or disabling access to infringing material residing on its networks.]
  • [CA/CL/VN274] propose: [CA oppose: 3.] [CA propose: 5.] The framework in Paragraph 1 will not apply to the extent that an internet service provider provides a service primarily for the purpose of enabling acts of copyright or related right infringement.]
    [CA propose: 6. This Article is without prejudice to the availability in a Party's law of other defences, limitations and exceptions to the infringement of copyright or related rights. This Article shall not affect the possibility of a court or administrative authority, in accordance wth Parties' legal systems, or requiring the internet service provider to terminate or prevent an infringement.]

  • (a) [MY/VN oppose: legal incentives for service providers to cooperate with copyright owners in deterring the unauthorized storage and transmission of copyrighted materials; and]
  • (b) limitations in its law [MY/NZ/SG propose: on the liability of, or on the remedies] [NZ/MY/VN oppose: regarding the scope of remedies 277 ] available against service providers for copyright infringements that they do not control, initiate or direct, and that take place through systems or networks controlled or operated by them or on their behalf, as set forth in this subparagraph (b).278 [PE propose: 279]

    278 This subparagraph is without prejudice to the availability of defenses to copyright infringement that are of general applicability.
    279 [PE propose: For greater clarity, the failure of an ISP to qualify for the limitations in subparagraph (b) does not itself result in liability.]
    280 [US/PE/SG/AU propose; CL/NZ/VN oppose: A Party may request consultations with the other Parties to consider how to address under this paragraph functions of a similar nature that a Party identifies after the entry into force of this Agreement.]

  • [NZ oppose: (ix) For purposes of the notice and take down process for the functions referred to in clauses (i) [CL propose: (B)] (C) and (D), each Party shall establish appropriate procedures in its law or in regulations for effective notifications of claimed infringement, and effective counter- notifications by those whose material is removed or disabled through mistake or misidentification.

    The Trans-Pacific Partnership is a proposed free trade agreement which grew from an initial 4 countries to include a dozen Pacific Rim nations. Joined by the US in 2008 and Japan in early 2013, the agreement has now grown from a small regional pact to encompass – potentially – nearly 40% of global GDP. The IP Chapter of the Agreement appeared on Wikileaks in early November 2013.
