DMCA Copyright Policy

Last Updated: [20-06-2024]

 

At APT COM, we respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect our users to do the same. We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. § 512.

 

If you believe that any material available on or through our website, services, or platform (collectively, the “Services”) infringes upon your copyright, you may submit a notification pursuant to the DMCA by providing our designated Copyright Agent with the following information in writing (see 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) for further detail):


📩 DMCA Notice Requirements

To file a valid DMCA takedown notice, please include the following:

 
  1. Physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works.

  3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (e.g., URL(s)).

 
  1. Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as your full name, address, telephone number, and email address.

  2. A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

⚖️ Counter-Notice

If you believe that material you posted was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification. To be effective, your counter-notice must include:

 
  1. Your physical or electronic signature.
  2. Identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and its location before removal.
  3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
  4. Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the address is located (or the U.S. District Court for the District of [Your State], if your address is outside the United States), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notification.
 

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we may reinstate the material in 10–14 business days unless the copyright owner files legal action.


🛡️ Repeat Infringer Policy

We reserve the right to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are determined to be “repeat infringers” — i.e., users who have repeatedly infringed the copyrights of others.


📌 Important Notes

  • Submitting false claims may result in liability for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees).
  • This policy applies to alleged infringements by users or third parties on our platform.
  • We do not adjudicate the substance of the copyright claim — we simply act as an intermediary in accordance with the DMCA.
