It is our policy to respond to any claim that Content posted on the Service infringes the copyright or other intellectual property infringement (“Infringement”) of any person.

You may be held accountable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) for misrepresenting that any Content is infringing your copyright.

OUR POLICY REGARDING DMCA TAKEDOWN NOTICES: The Digital Millennium Copyright Act was passed by the United States Congress to protect the interest of the copyright owners on the digital space within the United States and not Internationally. We have a fine bunch of copyright lawyers with a complete knowledge of the DMCA and therefore enables us to have a thorough and complete understanding of the DMCA and who it applies to.

USE AND ABUSE OF THE DMCA TAKEDOWN REQUEST PROCESS: DMCA takedown notices unfortunately are being used as an an easy way for many United States marketing companies and/or individuals to get copyrighted information pulled from sites. The process is abused when people request the takedown of perfectly legal content and images. DMCA Takedown Notices can have substantial implications on a website’s online presence. Takedown Notices can interrupt access to one’s site, potential disrupt or halt their business, and can possibly result in the deletion of their site’s user comments and feedback. With these potentially serious consequences in mind.

Our Copyright Policy is confined to drafting and following the laws of Intellectual Property Rights and related issues in our jurisdiction domain of India. Having said that:

1) We respect the intellectual property rights of others. It is our policy to respond to any legitimate claim that Content posted on the Service infringes the copyright or other intellectual property infringement (“Infringement”) of any person related to issues in India and governed by Indian law. We also respect the legitimate copyrights and complaints of foreign entities.

2) If you are a copyright owner, or authorized on behalf of one, with a business that falls within the jurisdiction of India and you believe that the copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement that is taking place through the Service, you must submit your notice in writing to the attention of “Copyright Infringement” of and include in your notice a detailed description of the alleged Infringement. You may be held accountable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) for misrepresenting that any Content is infringing your copyright.

Those submitting a DMCA notice for material on which you own a copyright, it’s important to consider if the manner in which the material is used falls under fair use, also the fact that the DMCA is applicable to only the United States laws and not those of India. We will not remove content or images merely because a DMCA Takedown Notice has been issued to us or any of our hosting providers. We are not a United States entity, and do not fall under such jurisdiction. If you are not sure material located on or linked-to our sites infringes please be advised that they may be liable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) if they materially

misrepresent that material or activity is infringing, and they have Indian jurisdiction – and we have and will seek to collect those damages. Abuse or threats with DMCA Takedown Notices are taken very seriously. Once again, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act was passed by the United States Congress to protect the interest of legitimate of copyright owners on the digital space residing within the United States.

We disclose that material connection with a notation on such works.
