Copyright and Intellectual Property Policy
Last updated: March 25, 2026
1. Overview
Vrools ("Company," "we," "us," or "our") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects all users of our platform to do the same. We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement in accordance with the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") and other applicable intellectual property laws.
If you believe that content available on or through the Vrools platform infringes your copyright or other intellectual property rights, you may submit a notification as described below.
2. Reporting Copyright Infringement
To file a DMCA takedown notice, please provide a written notification to our designated agent that includes the following information:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or if multiple works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works
- Identification of the material claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material on the Platform (such as a URL or listing identifier)
- Your contact information, including your name, address, telephone number, and email address
- A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law
- A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner
3. Counter-Notification Procedure
If you believe that material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification to our designated agent with the following information:
- Your physical or electronic signature
- Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification
- Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if outside the United States, any judicial district in which the Company may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification
Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we may restore the removed material within 10 to 14 business days, unless the original complainant files a court action seeking a restraining order against the party that submitted the counter-notification.
4. Repeat Infringer Policy
In accordance with the DMCA and our commitment to protecting intellectual property rights, we maintain a policy of terminating the accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers. We may, at our sole discretion:
- Issue warnings for first-time or minor offenses
- Suspend account privileges temporarily
- Permanently terminate accounts of repeat infringers
- Remove or disable access to infringing material
- Withhold or forfeit any pending payouts associated with infringing content

We will review trademark complaints and take appropriate action.
6. Good Faith Requirement
Any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that material was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be subject to liability under the DMCA and other applicable laws. We reserve the right to seek damages from any party that submits a fraudulent or bad-faith notification or counter-notification.
