Copyright and Intellectual Property Policy
Effective date: 11 October 2026
Contact: dev@trutechlabs.in
Respect for ownership
Users must upload and share only content they own, are licensed to use, or may lawfully use under an applicable exception. This applies to text, photographs, music, videos, software, artwork, trademarks, and other protected material. Finding something online, paying to view it, or crediting its creator does not by itself authorize republication. Obtain relevant permissions before uploading it.
Tribeism and user rights
Tribeism's branding, software, and original platform material belong to the operator or its licensors. You must not use them to suggest an unauthorized affiliation or endorsement. Users retain the rights they hold in their content. Tribeism's limited service license is described in the Terms of Service. This policy does not transfer user ownership or expand that license.
Reporting infringement
A rights holder or authorized representative may email dev@trutechlabs.in with the subject "Intellectual Property Complaint". Please include:
- Your name, contact information, and authority to act.
- Identification of the protected work or right.
- The exact location or identifier of the allegedly infringing material.
- A clear explanation of the alleged infringement and relevant supporting information.
- A good-faith statement that the use is unauthorized, accounting for applicable exceptions.
- Confirmation that the information is accurate, and your signature or equivalent confirmation.
The particular information legally required depends on the complaint and jurisdiction. We do not require a full copy of a sensitive or confidential work where a safe identification is sufficient.
Review and action
We assess the notice, may request clarification, and may remove or restrict material, notify the uploader, or take account action. Applicable legal removal procedures and deadlines take precedence. We consider relevant licenses and lawful exceptions rather than assuming every resemblance or complaint establishes infringement. Repeated or serious violations may lead to suspension or termination. We may preserve records required for legal compliance or an ongoing dispute.
Disputing a removal
If you believe your content was removed in error, email dev@trutechlabs.in with the subject "Intellectual Property Review". Include the decision reference and evidence of ownership, permission, or a relevant legal exception. We may share necessary complaint or response details with the other party where lawful, with appropriate protection of unrelated personal information. A response does not guarantee restoration or substitute for a court process. We follow any applicable statutory notice or counter-notice procedure and do not require anyone to waive legal rights to obtain review.
Misuse and AI content
Do not submit knowingly false ownership claims, use complaints to silence lawful criticism, or retaliate against participants. AI generation does not establish that content is free of third-party rights. Users remain responsible for authorized use and for compliance with the AI Content and Authenticity Rules.
