Správce licenčních práv vydavatelů

Správce licenčních práv vydavatelů, z.s. (SLPV) is a Czech collective management organization (kolektivní správce) that administers the copyright-related rights of publishers of online press publications. Registered as a zapsaný spolek (registered association), it is based in the Czech Republic and operates primarily in the Czech market. Its stated purpose is to defend publishers' rights in the Czech Republic against users of their content — above all large technology platforms that run internet search engines, social networks, and press-monitoring services. SLPV's core activity is collective licensing and enforcement on behalf of its publisher members. Rather than each publisher negotiating individually with platforms and monitoring firms, SLPV pools the relevant rights and represents members collectively. Its members include Czech publishers such as Aktuality. The organization also engages with industry standards, for example the SPIR standard for online publishers against AI scraping of their content, and it publishes information for clients of press-monitoring services. Governance follows a standard Czech association structure. The Valná hromada (General Assembly) is the supreme body, convened at least once a year, deciding strategic direction, adopting foundational documents, approving financial results, and electing body members. The Správní rada (Board) is the statutory and executive body, managing the association's finances and deciding on admission of new members; together with the executive director it represents SLPV externally. A Kontrolní komise (Audit Committee) supervises the association's activity and finances. Board members named on the official site include Jiří Majstr (chair), Michal Feix (vice-chair), Marek Antoš, Michal Hanák, Petr Marek, Libor Matoušek, and Dimitrije Maksimovic. As a collective management entity, SLPV is a membership-based, non-profit-oriented organization rather than a commercial publisher itself. It does not sell news content directly to consumers; its "product" is the collective administration of publishers' rights, licensing, and representation vis-à-vis content users. Its public communications focus on monitoring-media licensing, AI content scraping, and the rights of press publishers under Czech and EU copyright frameworks.

Správce licenčních práv vydavatelů, z.s. (SLPV) is a Czech collective management organization established to administer the rights of publishers of online press publications. It is registered as a zapsaný spolek (registered association) in the Czech Republic. Its creation reflects the broader European trend, following the EU copyright framework for press publishers, of forming collective bodies through which publishers can assert rights against large online platforms and media-monitoring services. From its public communications, SLPV's mission is to defend publishers' rights in the Czech Republic against users of their content, especially large technology platforms operating internet search engines, social networks, and press-monitoring services. It invites publishers of press publications to entrust their rights to collective management. SLPV's governance is set out in its stanovy (statutes). The General Assembly (Valná hromada) is the supreme body, convened at least once a year; it decides strategic direction, adopts foundational documents, approves financial results, and elects members of the bodies. The Board (Správní rada) is the statutory and executive body; it manages the association's finances, decides on admission of new members, and represents SLPV externally together with the executive director. The Audit Committee (Kontrolní komise) controls the association's activity and finances and oversees whether its affairs are properly conducted and in line with the statutes. Board members named on the official website include Jiří Majstr as chair, Michal Feix as vice-chair, and Marek Antoš, Michal Hanák, Petr Marek, Libor Matoušek, and Dimitrije Maksimovic as members. Members of the association include the Czech publisher Aktuality. In its public activity, SLPV has addressed the licensing of media monitoring, publishing information for clients of press-monitoring services, and has engaged with industry standards such as the SPIR standard for online publishers against AI scraping of their content. These activities place SLPV within the ongoing Czech and EU debate over how press publishers are compensated and protected when their content is used by search engines, social platforms, AI systems, and monitoring services.
