Punchporn’s Terms of Service do not allow users to upload content that infringes upon intellectual property rights, including copyright and trademark. The Punchporn community thrives on new and original content, and we ask users to be sure that they respect others’ legal rights before sharing or uploading content. Publishing or otherwise distributing content for which you do not have authorization is strictly prohibited.
Furthermore, Punchporn’s partnerships with numerous content producers, both professional and amateur are vital for the growth and continued success of the platform and its community, and so respecting intellectual property rights is essential to promote expression, originality and innovative new content.
We take claims of copyright infringement seriously and consider well-founded claims to be a serious violation to our Terms of Service. Punchporn operates a clear Copyright Process in relation to any content alleged to infringe the copyright of a third party. We will respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the “DMCA”) or any other applicable intellectual property legislation or laws.
If you believe that any Content violates your copyright, please see our Copyright Process for instructions on sending us a notice of copyright infringement.
Request a Copyright Takedown
If you believe any material accessible on Punchporn infringes your copyright, you may submit our copyright infringement notification form (or “DMCA takedown notice”). This form is designed to help you identify your content accurately and help speed up the process of content take-down. These requests should only be submitted by the copyright owner or an agent authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.
Before submitting your notice, we invite those who claim copyright infringement to first consider whether fair use, fair dealing, or a similar exception to copyright applies to the content in question.
What Happens When You Submit a DMCA Takedown Request?
Once submitted and received, your request will be promptly addressed by our copyright/DMCA team. We will only act on copyright takedown notices that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the “DMCA”) or any other applicable intellectual property legislation or laws. In the event that our team considers that your request does not comply with the DMCA information requirements for a valid takedown, you will be promptly notified.
Upon receipt of a compliant DMCA takedown notice, the copyright owner’s name, or alternative stage name, where specifically requested as a replacement to the copyright owner’s name, will be published on Punchporn in place of disabled content. This will become part of the public record of your DMCA Notice, along with your description of the work(s) allegedly infringed. All the information provided in a DMCA takedown notice, the actual DMCA Notice (including your personal information), or both may be forwarded to the uploader of the allegedly infringing content. By submitting a DMCA takedown notice, you consent to having your information revealed in this way.
Responses may include removing, blocking or disabling access to material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity, terminating the user’s access to Punchporn, or all of the foregoing.
If we remove or disable access to material in response to such a notice, we will take reasonable steps to notify the user that uploaded the affected content material that we have removed or disabled access to so that the user has the opportunity to submit a counter notification. For more information on the counter-notification process, please visit: https://www.Punchporn.com/information/dmca.
Protecting Your Work
We strongly encourage users to “fingerprint” the content in question as an additional safeguard against having your work used by others without authorization. We use the MediaWise® service from Vobile®, a third-party digital fingerprinting system, to assist us in identifying and blocking content from being uploaded by users. Videos uploaded to Punchporn are compared against a database of digital fingerprints maintained by MediaWise. Once the content is fingerprinted, this should effectively block future uploads of the content to our platform.
If you are interested in having your content digitally fingerprinted by Vobile you may contact them directly via http://www.vobileinc.com/contact/.
Alternatively, we may assist you in fingerprinting the content at issue. Please advise us if you want us to take this action on your behalf by duly completing and submitting our content removal request form here, and specifying that you would like assistance in having your content, or the content in which you are featured but did not consent to have shared, digitally fingerprinted.
