Copyright & Intellectual Property Claims
Last Updated: August 24, 2026
At [Agency Name], we respect the intellectual property rights of individuals, businesses, creators, and organizations. We expect our clients, partners, and website visitors to do the same.
This Copyright & Intellectual Property Claims policy explains how copyright concerns and intellectual property complaints can be submitted to us.
1. Copyright Ownership
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, clients are responsible for ensuring that all text, images, videos, logos, trademarks, graphics, documents, and other materials they provide to [Agency Name] are legally authorized for use.
We do not knowingly use copyrighted material without appropriate permission, licensing, or authorization.
2. Client-Provided Content
If a client provides content for use on their website, the client is responsible for ensuring that they have the necessary rights, licenses, or permissions to use that content.
By providing content to us, the client confirms that they have the necessary authority to request its use.
If a third party makes a claim regarding client-provided content, we may request relevant ownership or licensing documentation from the client.
3. Copyright Claim Submission
If you believe that content published on a website created, managed, or hosted through our services infringes your copyright or other intellectual property rights, please contact us with the following information:
Your full name and contact information
Identification of the copyrighted work or intellectual property you believe has been infringed
The URL or specific location of the allegedly infringing content
A description explaining why you believe the content infringes your rights
Evidence of your ownership or authorization to act on behalf of the rights holder
Any relevant supporting documents
A statement confirming that the information provided is accurate to the best of your knowledge
4. Review of Claims
After receiving a copyright or intellectual property complaint, we may review the information provided and contact the relevant client or website owner for clarification.
We may request additional evidence before taking action.
Depending on the circumstances, we may temporarily restrict, remove, disable, or request the removal of the disputed content while the matter is investigated.
Submitting a claim does not automatically guarantee removal of the content.
5. False or Misleading Claims
Copyright complaints should only be submitted when the complainant has a genuine and reasonable basis for believing that their rights have been infringed.
We reserve the right to take appropriate action against fraudulent, malicious, or knowingly misleading claims.
6. Counter-Claims
If content has been removed or restricted because of a copyright complaint and the affected client believes the claim is incorrect, they may contact us with an explanation and supporting evidence.
We may review the response and determine whether further action is appropriate.
7. Third-Party Materials
Websites may contain third-party materials such as:
Stock images
Fonts
WordPress themes
Plugins
Icons
Software libraries
Templates
APIs
Videos

Other licensed resources
These materials may be subject to separate licenses and terms established by their respective owners.
8. Our Own Intellectual Property
