Last updated: October 8, 2026

1. Copyright Notices

If you believe content on Advotecate infringes your copyright, send a notice that includes:

Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed.
Identification of the allegedly infringing material and where it appears.
Your name, address, telephone number, and email address.
A good-faith statement that the use is not authorized by the rights holder, its agent, or the law.
A statement under penalty of perjury that the notice is accurate and that you are authorized to act.
Your physical or electronic signature.

2. Counter-Notices

If your content was removed because of a copyright complaint and you believe that was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a signed counter-notice that includes:

Identification of the material that was removed or disabled and the location where it appeared before removal.
Your name, address, telephone number, and email address.
A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification.
A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the appropriate United States federal district court and accepting service of process from the person who submitted the original notice or that person's agent.
Your physical or electronic signature.

After receiving a valid counter-notice, we may provide it to the original claimant. We may restore the material after the period required by applicable law unless the claimant notifies us that they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the allegedly infringing activity.

3. Repeat Infringers

In appropriate circumstances, we may suspend or terminate accounts of users who repeatedly infringe intellectual-property rights.

Knowingly submitting a materially false, abusive, or fraudulent notice or counter-notice may result in account action and may expose the sender to liability under applicable law.
