Viewit respects the intellectual property rights of others, and we expect our users to do the same. Viewit Terms of Service and or Terms and Conditions and Community Guidelines do not allow posting, sharing, or sending any content that violates or infringes another person and or user's copyrights, trademarks or other intellectual property rights.
Copyright is a legal right that protects original works of authorship (e.g., music, videos, etc.). Generally, copyright protects an original expression of an idea (e.g., the specific way a video or music is expressed or created) but does not protect underlying ideas or facts.
We do not allow any content that infringes copyright. The use of copyrighted content of others without proper authorization or legally valid reason may lead to a violation of Viewit's policies.
At the same time, not all unauthorized uses of copyrighted content constitute an infringement. In many countries, exceptions to copyright infringement allow the use of copyrighted works under certain circumstances without authorization. These include the fair use doctrine in the United States and permitted acts of fair dealing in the European Union (and other equivalent exceptions under applicable local laws in other countries).
Any user content that infringes an other person’s copyright may be removed. The account may be suspended or terminated for multiple copyright violations in connection with the use of the Viewit site or app, or other violations of the Terms of Service and or Terms and Conditions and Community Guidelines. We reserve the right to refuse any account holder whose account was used for improper activities from opening a new account on Viewit’s web app and Service, or otherwise hosted by Viewit.
Contacting the user directly may resolve your complaint more quickly and in a way that is more beneficial to you, the user, and our community. You may contact the user and discuss the matter with them in private of your alleged infringing content from Viewit.
A trademark is a word, symbol, slogan, design, or combination of any of the foregoing that identifies the source of a product or service and distinguishes it from other products or services.
Trademark laws prohibit trademark infringement, which is generally the unauthorized use of a trademark or service mark in connection with goods or services in a way that is likely to cause confusion, deception or mistake about the source, origin, sponsorship or affiliation of the associated goods and/or services. At the same time, the use of another’s trademark for purposes of accurately referencing, lawfully commenting, criticizing, parodying, or reviewing the trademark owner’s products or services, or for purposes of comparing them to other products or services, where the mark is not used to designate the user’s own goods or services or those of a third party, is generally not considered a violation of our policies. Likewise, it is generally permissible to make a fan page about a brand, even without the brand’s permission, provided that you do not claim to speak for or be associated with the brand or otherwise violate the brand’s intellectual property rights.
Any content that violate another’s trademark rights may be taken down. Repeat violations of trademark rights in connection with the use of Viewit's web app and Service, or other violations of the Terms of Service and or Terms and Conditions and Community Guidelines may result in the suspension or removal of the user's content. We reserve the right to refuse any account holder whose account was used for improper activities from opening a new account on Viewit’s web app and Service, or otherwise hosted by Viewit.
Contacting the user directly may resolve your complaint more quickly and in a way that is more beneficial to you, the user, and our community.
