The injunction in that case was therefore rightly refused. Special permitted acts apply in the case of computer programs. They are excluded from the provisions about fair dealing, and instead new sections are added to the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act by the Copyright (Computer Programs) Regulations 1993 (SI No 3233), which implement the EC directive on the legal protection of computer programs [1991] OJL 122/42 which provides:

The Right

This chapter covers the common provisions in Article 23 of the copyright order in Europe, Directive 2019/790. It refers to Member States that are required to ensure that any contractual provision that prevents compliance with the transparency obligation and contract adjustment mechanism will be unenforceable in relation to authors and performers. It also looks at the legislation that causes non-compliance with the alternative dispute resolution procedure. The chapter points out that the provisions on the right of revocation do not apply to authors of a computer program within the meaning of Article 2 of Directive 2009/24/EC on the legal protection of computer programs. It emphasizes that the principle of appropriate and proportionate remuneration in Article 18 of Directive 2019/790 do not affect individuals involved in computer programs.
