When You Submit a Copyright Claim
When you submit a copyright claim, ArtAdjust may share your name and email address with the alleged infringer and retain this information for legal purposes. Fraudulent claims or misuse of this process can result in the termination of your account or legal consequences. It is advisable to consult with a lawyer before filing a claim.
ArtAdjust has a policy to terminate the accounts of repeat copyright infringers under appropriate circumstances. If a user repeatedly posts content that infringes on someone else's copyright, and the copyright owner reports this to ArtAdjust, the company may decide to close the user's account after receiving multiple valid notifications of copyright infringement against it.
How ArtAdjust Handles Copyright Claims
ArtAdjust reviews claims received through the channels mentioned above. Upon receiving a claim, they evaluate it and take appropriate actions, which may include removing the reported content or disabling access in one or more countries.
ArtAdjust may contact both the complainant and the content creator about the actions taken if they decide not to act, or if they need more information to assess the claim.
Any content that infringes another person's copyrights or trademarks may be removed. ArtAdjust has a policy for repeat infringers, which can result in the termination of the account of the user or creator responsible for multiple infringements. The claimed content may be restored if we receive a sufficient response from the creator or user or if the rights holder withdraws their claim.
