Copyright Policy

This copyright policy outlines the rules and guidelines regarding the use and protection of copyrighted materials on this platform. We are committed to respecting the intellectual property rights of others and expect our users to do the same. This policy applies to all content shared, uploaded, or otherwise made available on our service.

Ownership of Copyrighted Material

Generally, the creator of original work automatically owns the copyright to that work. This includes, but is not limited to, text, images, videos, audio recordings, and software. Copyright grants the owner exclusive rights to control how their work is used, including the right to reproduce, distribute, display, and create derivative works.

Copyright Infringement

Copyright infringement occurs when copyrighted material is used without the permission of the copyright owner. This includes unauthorized copying, distribution, modification, or public performance of copyrighted works. We strictly prohibit the posting, uploading, or sharing of any content that infringes upon the copyright of others.

Reporting Copyright Infringement

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been infringed upon on our platform, please notify us immediately. Your notice must include the following information:

• Your contact information (name, address, email address, and phone number).
• A description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed.
• A description of the infringing material and its location on our platform (URL or specific details).
• A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
• A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
• Your physical or electronic signature.

Upon receiving a valid infringement notice, we will promptly investigate the claim and take appropriate action, which may include removing or disabling access to the infringing material.

Fair Use

In some cases, the use of copyrighted material may be permissible under the doctrine of "fair use." Fair use allows limited use of copyrighted material for purposes such as criticism, commentary, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Determining whether a particular use is fair use requires careful consideration of several factors, including the purpose and character of the use, the nature of the copyrighted work, the amount and substantiality of the portion used, and the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.

User Responsibility

Users are solely responsible for ensuring that their content does not infringe upon the copyright of others. Before uploading or sharing any material, users should verify that they have the necessary rights or permissions to do so. This may involve obtaining permission from the copyright owner or ensuring that the use falls under fair use or another exception to copyright law.

Repeat Infringers

We have a policy of terminating the accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers of copyright. A repeat infringer is a user who has been notified of infringing activity more than once.
