Copyright & Takedown Policy

1. Purpose

AEVUM respects the intellectual property rights of creators, publishers, and rights holders.

This Copyright & Takedown Policy outlines the process for reporting alleged copyright infringement and how AEVUM responds to such notices, consistent with the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth) and internationally recognised notice-and-takedown practices.

AEVUM operates as a neutral publishing platform. We do not pre-screen or editorially review user-submitted content.

2. Reporting Alleged Copyright Infringement

If you believe that content published on AEVUM infringes your copyright, you may submit a written notice to us.

To be effective, your notice must include:

• Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed
• Identification of the material on AEVUM claimed to be infringing, including the relevant link(s)
• Your name, organisation (if applicable), and contact information
• A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law
• A statement that the information in the notice is accurate
• A statement that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on behalf of the copyright owner
• Your physical or electronic signature

Notices should be sent to:

support@aevum.works

3. Our Response to Notices

Upon receiving a valid infringement notice, AEVUM may:

• temporarily disable access to the identified material;
• notify the account holder who published the content; and
• request additional information if necessary to process the claim.

AEVUM does not adjudicate disputes regarding ownership or licensing and does not determine intent. Our role is limited to facilitating notice-and-takedown procedures.

4. Counter-Notification

If you believe content was removed or disabled in error, you may submit a counter-notification.

A counter-notification must include:

• Identification of the material that was removed or disabled
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification
• Your name and contact information
• A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of Australian courts
• Your physical or electronic signature

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we may restore the material unless the original complainant notifies us of legal action within a reasonable period.

5. Repeat Infringement

AEVUM may, in appropriate circumstances, restrict or terminate accounts that are subject to repeated valid copyright infringement notices.

6. No Waiver of Rights

Nothing in this policy limits AEVUM’s right to take action where required by law or to comply with court orders or legal obligations.

7. Relationship to Other Policies

This policy operates in conjunction with:

• the Terms of Service (Content Ownership, Prohibited Conduct, Termination)
• the Acceptable Use Policy

Capitalised terms not defined here have the meanings given in the Terms of Service.
