DMCA Policy

This Digital Millennium Copyright Act(“DMCA”) Policy(“Policy”) applies to the Apktio.com website(“Website” or “Service”) and all related products and services(collectively, “Services”). It explains how the Website operator(“Operator”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) responds to copyright infringement notifications and how users(“you”, “your”) may submit a copyright complaint.

Protecting intellectual property is extremely important to us, and we expect our users and their agents to do the same.It is our policy to promptly respond to valid and clear copyright infringement notifications that comply with the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act(DMCA) of 1998.

What to Consider Before Submitting a Copyright Complaint

Before filing a DMCA complaint, please consider whether the material may constitute fair use. Fair use allows brief portions of copyrighted material to be used for purposes such as:

• Criticism
• Commentary
• News reporting
• Teaching
• Research

If you still believe your copyright is being infringed, you may first wish to contact the user directly to resolve the issue.

If unsure whether the content infringes your rights, consult a legal professional before submitting a notification.

We may share your notification or counter-notification with the user who posted the allegedly infringing content. If you are concerned about your personal information being shared, consider having an agent submit the complaint on your behalf.

Notifications of Infringement

If you are a copyright owner or authorized agent and believe that content on our Services infringes your rights, you may submit a written copyright infringement notification(“Notification”) pursuant to the DMCA.

Your Notification must meet all DMCA requirements, including:

• Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed.
• Identification of the infringing material and its location on our Services.
• Sufficient contact information(name, address, phone number, email).
• A good faith statement that you believe the use is not authorized.
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the Notification is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf.
• Your physical or electronic signature.

Once a valid Notification is received, we will:

• Review the claim
• Remove or restrict access to the allegedly infringing material(if appropriate)
• Notify the affected user and provide them a copy of your Notification

If the Notification is incomplete or invalid, the Operator may choose not to take action.

Counter-Notifications

A user who receives a copyright infringement Notification may submit a counter-notification under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(2) and(3). The counter-notification must:

• Identify the material that was removed or restricted.
• Provide the user’s contact information.
• Include a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the material was removed or restricted due to mistake or misidentification.
• Include consent to jurisdiction of the appropriate U.S.federal court.
• Include the user’s physical or electronic signature.

If a valid counter-notification is received, we may forward it to the original complainant.

Please note:
If you are unsure whether your material was wrongly removed or if it may infringe someone’s rights, consult an attorney before submitting a counter-notification.

The Operator reserves the right to take no action if a counter-notification fails to meet all legal requirements.
