The main difference between copyright infringement and other types of violations such as trademark violations is that copyright infringement involves the unauthorized use or reproduction of another person's original work, while trademark infringement involves using or imitating a unique identifier associated with a brand or company. Copyright law helps protect creative works such as music, artwork, literature, films and computer software, whereas trademark law helps protect names and symbols used to identify a product or service. In both cases, the best way to avoid potential legal liability is to secure permission from the rights holder prior to using someone else’s work or image. By securing licensing agreements or simply asking permission from rights holders first, you can minimize your risk from any allegations of unauthorized usage.

The main difference between copyright infringement and other types of violations such as trademark violations is that copyright infringement involves unauthorized use of another person's original work, while trademark violation typically involves unauthorized use of a logo or phrase associated with a company. 
In order to protect yourself from potential legal liability, you should always avoid using others’ work without their consent, respect their intellectual property rights by correctly attributing the work to its rightful owners and obtaining permission when necessary, or be ready to prove that the use is fair within the limits allowed by law.
