A. Identification of the Copyrighted Work

Identify the copyrighted work you believe has been infringed.

If multiple copyrighted works on wearcut.com are covered by one notice, you may provide a representative list where legally appropriate.

We may request additional information, including:

• Exact URLs
• Evidence of copyright ownership
• Evidence of authority to act
• Identification of the original copyrighted work

Providing a complete notice helps reduce delays.

10. Review of Copyright Notices

• The identity of the claimant
• The copyright claimed
• Evidence of ownership
• Authority to act
• The allegedly infringing content
• Exact content locations
• Relevant licenses or permissions
• Applicable legal exceptions
• Other relevant information

Submission of a notice does not automatically establish copyright infringement.

11. Actions We May Take

After reviewing a credible copyright complaint, Wearcut may take appropriate action, including:

• Removing the disputed content
• Disabling access to the disputed content
• Removing a product image
• Removing a product listing
• Replacing disputed material
• Contacting the person or provider responsible for the content
• Requesting additional evidence

• Declining to remove content where the notice is legally insufficient or unsupported

Actions will depend on the specific circumstances and applicable law.

12. Notification to the Affected Party

Where appropriate, if content is removed or access is restricted in response to a copyright notice, we may provide relevant information about the complaint to the party responsible for the affected content.

This may include:

• Identification of the disputed material
• Information needed to understand the claim
• Contact information provided in the notice where legally appropriate
• Instructions for submitting a counter-notification

Do not include information in your notice that you are not prepared to have disclosed where legally necessary.

13. Counter-Notification

If material you provided was removed or disabled because of a copyright complaint and you believe the removal resulted from mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification where permitted under applicable law.

A counter-notification should be sent to:

support@wearcut.com

Use a subject line such as:

DMCA Counter-Notification

A valid counter-notification under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3), where applicable, should include:

A. Your Identification

Provide:

• Full legal name

Where required under U.S. law, include a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the appropriate United States Federal District Court.

If your address is within the United States, this is generally the federal judicial district in which your address is located.

If your address is outside the United States, the applicable statutory jurisdiction requirements should be followed.

E. Acceptance of Service

Your counter-notification should state that you will accept service of process from:

• The person who submitted the original infringement notice, or

• Agreement to accept service of process
• Your physical or electronic signature

16. What Happens After a Counter-Notification

Where a legally valid counter-notification is received, we may provide a copy to the party who submitted the original copyright complaint.

Where applicable under 17 U.S.C. § 512, removed material may be restored after the legally required period unless the original claimant informs us that they have filed an action seeking a court order against the party responsible for the disputed material.

Under the applicable U.S. process, restoration may generally occur not less than 10 and not more than 14 business days after receipt of a valid counter-notification, unless we receive notice of qualifying legal action.

17. Court Proceedings

Wearcut does not act as a court and cannot finally adjudicate complex copyright ownership disputes.

If the parties provide conflicting claims, the dispute may need to be resolved through:

• Direct agreement
• Settlement
• Mediation
• Court proceedings
• Another legally recognized process

We may maintain appropriate restrictions while a formal dispute is unresolved where permitted or required by law.

18. Repeat Infringer Policy

Where appropriate and in accordance with applicable law, Wearcut may take action regarding users, suppliers, partners, or content providers who repeatedly infringe valid copyrights.

Appropriate action may include:

• Content removal
• Listing restrictions
• Access restrictions
• Termination of a relationship
• Other reasonable measures

Any determination will consider the circumstances of the reported infringement and applicable legal requirements.

19. Misrepresentation in Copyright Notices

Copyright notices and counter-notifications must be truthful and submitted in good faith.

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), a person who knowingly materially misrepresents that:

• Material is infringing, or
• Material was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification

may be liable for damages and other consequences permitted by law.

Do not submit fraudulent, abusive, or knowingly inaccurate notices.

20. False or Abusive Claims

Wearcut may reject or take appropriate action concerning notices that reasonably appear to be:

• Fraudulent
• Abusive
• Harassing
• Knowingly false
• Materially misleading
• Unrelated to copyright
• Submitted without authority
• Intended to misuse the copyright complaint process

A good-faith complaint will not be considered abusive merely because the claim is ultimately disputed.

21. Fair Use and Lawful Uses

Copyright law permits certain uses of copyrighted material without permission.

Depending on the circumstances, lawful uses may include:

• Fair use
• Commentary
• Criticism
• News reporting
• Teaching
• Research
• Certain descriptive or transformative uses

Whether a specific use qualifies for an exception depends on the facts and applicable law.

Claimants should consider lawful-use principles before submitting a copyright notice.

22. Copyright Ownership Disputes

We may be unable to resolve disputes where multiple parties claim ownership of the same material.

If competing parties provide credible documentation supporting conflicting ownership claims, Wearcut may:

• Request further documentation
• Temporarily restrict the material
• Maintain an existing restriction
• Restore the material where legally appropriate
• Refer the parties to the applicable legal process

Complex ownership disputes may require resolution by a court or other competent authority.

• The exact wearcut.com URL
• The disputed photograph

• Your ownership or authority

Where relevant, timestamps may help identify the disputed portion.

27. Supplier or Third-Party Content

Some website content may be supplied by:

• Product suppliers
• Manufacturers
• Service providers
• Licensed content providers
• Other third parties

If a copyright complaint concerns third-party material, Wearcut may contact the relevant supplier or content provider as part of the investigation.

Third-party origin does not prevent us from reviewing credible copyright complaints.

28. Information Shared During the Copyright Process

Information submitted in a copyright notice or counter-notification may be shared where reasonably necessary with:

• The party responsible for the disputed material
• The original claimant
• Suppliers
• Legal advisers
• Service providers
• Courts

• Maintaining legal records
• Preventing abuse

30. No Automatic Admission of Liability

Removing, disabling, restoring, or modifying content following a complaint does not constitute:

• An admission of copyright infringement
• An admission of liability
• A determination of ownership
• A waiver of legal rights
• A legal judgment

We may take precautionary action while reviewing a dispute.
