All ISO publications are protected by copyright. Therefore and unless otherwise specified, no part of an ISO publication may be reproduced or utilized in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying, microfilm, scanning, without permission in writing from the publisher.
A limited number of rights are given to customers when they purchase a standard. When a standard is ordered in electronic format from an online store, these rights are described in a license agreement which the customer has to read and accept before being authorized to download the requested document. Typically, the customer is allowed to print one copy only and is not authorized to make copies or transfer the electronic file which he or she has purchased, or reproduce parts of it.
However, ISO offers many different options to standards users when they need to make more extensive use of the content of standards. These include: making additional electronic copies, printing multiple copies from one electronic file and extracting parts of a standard for inclusion in the company's internal documentation, user' guide or manuals. To find out how to obtain any additional rights or if you have any questions relating to copyright, please contact ISO or your national standards organisation.
