Framework of laws protecting the Olympic and Paralympic property:

  • Law 9.279/96 – Brazilian Industrial Property Law protects the symbols of sport activities, and are not subject to registration. It characterises in article 195 as illicit enrichment the result of undue reproduction or counterfeiting, also foreseen as unfair competition criminal offences in the customer poaching mode.
  • Law 9.615/98 – Sports Law, also known as Lei Pelé (Pelé Law), which in articles 15 and 87, provides for the protection of Olympic symbols, and determines this is the sole property of the Brazilian Olympic Committee (COB).
  • Nairobi Treaty – Treaty which refers solely to the protection of Olympic symbols, of which Brazil is a signatory; it was ratified by the enactment of Decree-Law 90,129/84 in the country.
  • Law 9.610/98 – Law which foresees that Olympic symbols are governed as the object of author’s rights and also by the norms related to the registration and protection of corporate names.
  • Law 8.078/90 – Also called the Consumer Defense Code, which consists of a consumer protection instrument against any confusion referring to misleading advertising; therefore, it prohibits associations with the Olympic Movement of companies not linked to the same.
