Copyright Policy

Notices and Procedure for Making Claims of Copyright Infringement

A. Generally

This Copyright Policy applies to the web site located at www.mulu.me (“Mulu”). You may wish to solicit professional legal advice in connection with any claim or concerns you have involving the Site and relating the copyright laws.

The Site permits users to import and use content from across the Internet, as well as content they have created, in order to enjoy the benefits of the Site. The Site links such content back to their original Internet source(s) – e.g., website operated by sellers – so as to facilitate transactions there.

We respect the copyright laws and we expect the users of the Mulu Site do the same. We expressly prohibit the use of the web Site for purposes that are contrary to the copyright laws, and we will respond promptly if a content owner asks us to disable copyrighted material from being displayed and/or otherwise used on or via the Site. In addition, we may disable an individual user account if we determine, in our sole, exclusive, and complete discretion that such account is involved in activity that violates the copyright laws.

B. How Can I Ask Mulu to Remove My Copyrighted Content from the Site?

If you believe that your work has been used in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, you should provide our Agent for Notice of claims of copyright or other intellectual property infringement (“Agent”) the following information in writing:

(1) An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest;

(2) A description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed, including details sufficient to allow us to meaningfully evaluate your claim;

(3) A description of where on the Site(s) the content that you claim to be infringing is located, including at the very least the specific URL(s) at which we can find that content;

(4) Your full name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address, so that we can communicate with you about your claim;

(5) A statement by you that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law (e.g., “I have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted materials described above as allegedly infringing is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.”).

(6) A statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf (e.g., “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.”).
