Copyright Overview

At Pinoyrefiners, we prioritize the protection of authors' rights and expect our community to adhere to the same principles. Our Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and Copyright Policy detail the steps for handling copyright infringement claims in line with relevant laws.

Intellectual Property

All content on the Pinoyrefiners platform, such as text, images, branding, and other materials, is owned by Pinoyrefiners or used with necessary permissions. Unauthorized copying, alteration, or sharing of this material is not allowed. We retain all rights not explicitly granted.

Reporting Infringement

If you suspect your copyrighted material has been improperly copied or used, please reach out to us promptly with a comprehensive report. Provide details about the original work, its location on our website, your contact details, and a sworn statement confirming your belief that the use is unauthorized.

Response to Notices

Pinoyrefiners evaluates all legitimate DMCA notifications and will respond in line with our procedures, which may involve removing or restricting access to the alleged infringing content. We might also inform the alleged infringer, giving them a chance to submit a counter-notification if deemed suitable.

Counter-Notification Procedure

If you believe your content was mistakenly removed and does not violate copyrights, you can file a counter-notification. It should detail the material that was removed, include a perjury statement about the error, and express your consent to the jurisdiction of your location. Upon confirmation, Pinoyrefiners may restore the content.

Limitation of Liability

Pinoyrefiners relinquishes any responsibility for copyright breaches made by third parties sharing or posting content through outside services. Even though we strive to expeditiously remove infringing content when properly notified, we are unable to guarantee vigilant monitoring of every submission.

Effective Date

This Copyright and DMCA Policy was last revised in January 2025 and remains in effect until further modifications.
