A statutory license is an authority, license, or permit granted by or on behalf of a government, or a government body under a law of the state or central.
The statutory license services system is used when legal reasons arise such as cases where right holders of works are not tracked down, despite considerable efforts to find them.
Under the statutory license system, the organization with authority approves the works on behalf of the voluntary license of copyright owners, allowing the user who applies for statutory license to use the work. This system is envisioned to contribute to development through social utilization of works.
