How Can I Manage my Territorial Rights with Draft2Digital?

Modified on Mon, 3 Feb at 10:22 AM

Territorial Rights Management controls are not enabled by default. To enable this option, you can go to "Account > Advanced User Options"

Example D2D UI pointing out the Account link in the header and Advanced User Options

and check the "Enable Territorial Rights Management" checkbox. When you're done, hit Save at the bottom of the page.

Example UI of some Advanced User Options

NOTE: If you notice that your "Enable Territorial Rights Management" check box is checked, but grayed out (as seen above) this means that you already have Territorial Rights Management enabled and have set some Territorial Rights on some of your books.

Once this is enabled, you can go to your book project. In Step 4 - Ebook Publish you will see an orange button for "Manage Territorial Rights" under Digital Book Price. This option will allow you to exclude countries from your distribution. Be advised, these selections will not be applied until you Submit the book, (or Apply Changes if the book is already live.)

Example UI of Step 4: Publish on an Ebook pointing out where the "Manage Territorial Rights" button is located beneath the price input after the option has been enabled.
