DMCA Policy

This Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) policy (“DMCA Policy”) applies to the Pro Facts BD website (accessible at https://profactsbd.com) and any related products or services (collectively referred to as “Services”). It explains how we, the website operator (“Operator,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), address copyright infringement notifications and how you (“you” or “your”) can submit a copyright infringement complaint.

We respect the intellectual property rights of others and understand the importance of protecting creative work. We are committed to responding promptly to valid notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) of 1998. If you believe that your copyrighted work has been infringed on by content hosted on our website, we encourage you to follow the procedure outlined in this policy.

For further details, you can always access the full text of the DMCA on the U.S. Copyright Office website.

What to Consider Before Submitting a Copyright Complaint

Before submitting a copyright complaint, we ask you to consider whether the material in question might fall under “fair use.” Fair use allows for the limited use of copyrighted material without permission, for purposes such as commentary, criticism, teaching, scholarship, or research. Understanding whether the material in question qualifies for fair use is important for protecting the rights of all parties involved.

If you are unsure whether the material constitutes copyright infringement, we recommend consulting with an attorney before submitting a complaint.

Please note that when submitting a copyright complaint, the DMCA requires you to provide personal information. If you are concerned about sharing this information, you may choose to designate an authorized agent to submit the complaint on your behalf.

Notifications of Infringement

If you are a copyright holder or an authorized agent acting on behalf of a copyright holder and believe that any content on Pro Facts BD infringes on your copyrights, please submit a formal copyright infringement notification (“Notification”). We understand that the process may seem overwhelming, but we are committed to ensuring that it is handled efficiently and fairly.

For your Notification to be valid under the DMCA, it must meet the following requirements:

  1. A description of the copyrighted work that you believe has been infringed.
  2. A description of the location of the infringing material on our website, with sufficient detail to allow us to locate it.
  3. Your contact information, including your name, address, phone number, and email address.
  4. 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.
  5. A statement that the information in your Notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
  6. Your physical or electronic signature.

Once we receive your Notification, we will review it carefully. If the Notification is valid, we will take appropriate action, which may include removing or disabling access to the allegedly infringing material. If content is removed or access is restricted, we will notify the affected user, providing transparency regarding the action taken.

Please understand that we may not act on a DMCA complaint if it does not meet all the legal requirements.
