Recourse for Copyright Owners: Reporting Complaints 

We also provide a mechanism for copyright owners, or those authorized to act on behalf of an owner of a copyright, to report infringing use of their content on the GrannyMaster Platform. In accordance with the Copyright Act, 1957, we will respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement that are reported to our Copyright Agent. We provide you the requirements of a proper complaint below. For your convenience, the entire text of the Copyright Act, 1957 can be found online at: http://www.copyright.gov.in/Documents/CopyrightRules1957.pdf

If There Is a Copyright Complaint Against You

If you receive a notice that a posting or portion of Your Content has been removed or suspended due to a copyright complaint, that means that we removed it at the request of a content owner. If you believe the material was removed in error, you have the option to file a counter-notification. When we receive a proper counter-notification, we will forward it to the party who originally complained about the alleged copyright violation. If we do not receive a notice from the original complainant within 10 business days, stating that the original complainant is seeking a court order to prevent further infringement of the content at issue, we will clear the complaint from your account’s record, and, at our discretion, we may replace the content that was removed.

How to File a Copyright Counter Notification

Please note that there are potentially serious consequences for fraudulent or bad faith submissions of copyright notifications or counter notifications. Before submitting a counter-notification, you should be sure that you are the actual rights holder of the content removed or that you have a good faith belief that content was erroneously removed. It is important to make sure that you understand the repercussions of submitting a false counter notification.

A proper counter notification should be sent to GrannyMaster’s Copyright Agent, as provided above, and it should contain the following:

  1. Your name, address, and telephone number
  2. The URLs of the content that was removed or disabled by us (you can copy and paste the link provided in the notification email)
  3. The following statement:

    I declare that I have a good faith belief that the content was removed as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.
  4. Your physical or electronic signature (e.g., typing your full name)
