## What this rule covers
Copyright can protect photographs, text, video, artwork, manuals, and other creative assets. A supplier-provided file is not automatically cleared for every use.
## Why sellers should care
Copyright complaints can lead to listing removal and account risk, especially when copied images or competitor copy are reused at scale.
## Safer operating practice
Maintain an asset ledger that records the creator, ownership or licence, permitted use, and the Amazon listing where each asset appears. Avoid copying competitor content.
## Important note
Generative or edited assets can still create rights questions. Preserve source files and permissions, and obtain qualified review when ownership is unclear.
