BS ISO 16016:2016 pdf download.Technical product documentation — Protection notices for restricting the use of documents and products
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the protection notices which serve to prevent the improper use of documents and products whose usage is restricted.
With the benefit of a uniform text, protection notices draw attention to the existence of an industrial property right or copyright. Furthermore, they clearly show that the owner of the right claims legal protection to the fullest extent and, in addition to this, they restrict the utilization of the documents or products concerned.

4.1 General
It is recommended that holders or licensees of protection rights who wish to draw attention to these rights and avoid their infringement use the markings specified in 4.2 to 4.4.
4.7 Use
The above‑mentioned notices may be used when citing protected documents or products in other publications, such as catalogues, offers, or brochures. If it is not possible to use the circled character, for example because it is not within the character set of the text‑processing system being used, the complete term shall be typed for example, Utility Model CH 679439 B5. The copyright notice refers to the prohibition of physical reproduction, while notices for patents, utility models and designs refer to the prohibition of the use for commercial purposes of the technical principle on which the related object (or process) is based, and forbid reproduction or copying for commercial use. These protection notices do not affect the communication of information on the documents or products in question.
