The article addresses several challenges in copyright protection within the digital landscape. The
topic is particularly relevant given the expansive capabilities of modern information and communication
technologies, which continually introduce risks to the rights of authors and copyright holders in science,
literature, and art shared on the global web. In this context, providers–acting as information interme-
diaries–play a central role in online interactions, yet many countries’ laws have gaps in regulating their
status and responsibilities. This study focuses on protecting authors’ rights on the Internet and clarify-
ing the legal status and responsibilities of information intermediaries in Kazakhstan. The article aims to
pinpoint deficiencies in the regulation of intermediary activities in Kazakhstan and to suggest legislative
improvements. To meet these objectives, both general scientific and specialized research methods were
employed. The novelty of this topic lies in the fact that Kazakhstan’s legal framework does not yet define
the role of information intermediaries or their involvement in copyright protection on the Internet, and
there is a lack of academic literature on this subject. This article is among the first to explore these issues.
Key conclusions emphasize the need for a structured legal framework in Kazakhstan that defines infor-
mation intermediaries, along with the scope and limits of their liability in cases of copyright infringement
on the Internet.
