No. With copyright, you should assume something IS protected, until you have evidence to say otherwise.
Copyright applies to something as soon as it is fixed in a tangible form. No (C) symbol is needed.

Must a copyrighted symbol be displayed to protect the copyright?
In the USA and more than 160 other countries of the Berne Union, the answer is that no copyright notice is necessary. This has been the law in the USA since 1989, meaning that things published prior to that, by US authors in the USA, were required to have copyright "notice", whether using the word "copyright", "copr." or the copyright symbol, followed by the publication date, followed by the name of the copyright owners. Laws for Copyright notice in other countries may vary.
