      Storymore.online may occasionally contain content provided by authors, contributors, licensors, users, or other third parties.<\/p>\n

      Copyright in such content remains with the respective copyright owner unless ownership has been legally transferred.<\/p>\n

      The appearance of third-party content on Storymore.online does not mean that Storymore.online claims ownership of that material.<\/p>\n

      4. Respect for Copyright<\/h2>\n

      We do not knowingly intend to publish or distribute material that unlawfully infringes another person’s copyright.<\/p>\n

      If you are a copyright owner, or an authorized representative of a copyright owner, and believe that material appearing on Storymore.online infringes your rights, you may submit a copyright infringement notice to us.<\/p>\n

      We will review properly submitted complaints and may remove or disable access to disputed material when appropriate.<\/p>\n

      5. Copyright \/ DMCA Takedown Notice<\/h2>\n

      To request removal of material that you believe infringes your copyright, please send us a written notice containing the following information:<\/p>\n

        Subject:<\/strong> Copyright Infringement \/ DMCA Takedown Notice<\/p>\n

        Please replace the email address above with the official email address you want to use for copyright complaints before publishing this Policy.<\/p>\n

        7. What Happens After We Receive a Complaint<\/h2>\n

        After receiving a sufficiently complete copyright complaint, Storymore.online may:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Review the reported material;<\/li>\n
        • Request additional information from the complainant;<\/li>\n
        • Temporarily restrict access to the material;<\/li>\n
        • Remove the allegedly infringing content;<\/li>\n
        • Contact the person who submitted or published the material;<\/li>\n
        • Restore content where appropriate;<\/li>\n
        • Maintain records relating to the complaint; or<\/li>\n
        • Take other measures reasonably necessary under applicable law.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Submitting a complaint does not guarantee that content will automatically be removed.<\/p>\n

          We may consider applicable copyright limitations, exceptions, licenses, permissions, ownership disputes, and other relevant circumstances.<\/p>\n

          8. Counter-Notification<\/h2>\n

          If your material has been removed or disabled because of a copyright complaint and you believe the removal resulted from a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification.<\/p>\n

          For a counter-notification submitted under the U.S. DMCA, the notice should include:<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Your physical or electronic signature;<\/li>\n
          2. Identification of the material that was removed or disabled;<\/li>\n
          3. The URL or location at which the material appeared before it was removed;<\/li>\n
          4. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification;<\/li>\n
          5. Your full name, address, and telephone number;<\/li>\n
          6. A statement consenting to the jurisdiction required by Section 512(g) of the U.S. Copyright Act, where applicable; and<\/li>\n
          7. A statement that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original infringement notice or that person’s authorized agent.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Counter-notifications should be sent to the same copyright contact listed above.<\/p>\n

            9. Restoration of Content<\/h2>\n

            Where U.S. DMCA procedures legally apply, following receipt of a valid counter-notification, we may provide a copy of the counter-notification to the person who submitted the original copyright complaint.<\/p>\n

            Subject to applicable law, disputed material may be restored within the period required by law unless we receive appropriate notice that the copyright claimant has initiated legal proceedings seeking to prevent restoration of the material.<\/p>\n

            Nothing in this section requires Storymore.online to restore material where another lawful basis exists for removing or restricting it.<\/p>\n

            10. False or Misleading Claims<\/h2>\n

            Please do not knowingly submit false, fraudulent, or materially misleading copyright complaints or counter-notifications.<\/p>\n

            Misrepresentations in copyright notices or counter-notices may result in legal liability under applicable law.<\/p>\n

            If you are uncertain whether material infringes your copyright, you may wish to obtain legal advice before submitting a formal takedown request.<\/p>\n

            11. Repeat Copyright Infringers<\/h2>\n

            Storymore.online may restrict, suspend, or terminate access or contribution privileges of users or contributors who repeatedly infringe copyright or other intellectual property rights.<\/p>\n

            We may take appropriate action based on the circumstances of each case and applicable law.<\/p>\n

            12. User-Submitted Stories and Content<\/h2>\n

            If Storymore.online allows authors or users to submit stories, articles, images, comments, or other content, the person submitting the material is responsible for ensuring that they have the necessary rights and permissions.<\/p>\n

            By submitting material, you represent that:<\/p>\n

              \n
            • You created the content yourself; or<\/li>\n
            • You have obtained appropriate permission or authorization to use it; and<\/li>\n
            • Its publication does not knowingly infringe another person’s copyright or intellectual property rights.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              Storymore.online may remove user-submitted material when we reasonably believe it violates copyright law or this Policy.<\/p>\n

              13. Plagiarism<\/h2>\n

              Storymore.online does not support plagiarism.<\/p>\n

              Authors and contributors must not submit stories or materials copied substantially from another author, book, website, publication, or creator and present them as original work.<\/p>\n

              We reserve the right to investigate credible plagiarism complaints and remove material where appropriate.<\/p>\n

              14. Translations and Adaptations<\/h2>\n

              Translation of a copyrighted story or novel does not automatically make the resulting work free from the rights associated with the original work.<\/p>\n

              Users may not translate, adapt, rewrite, or republish protected Storymore.online content without permission where authorization is required by applicable law.<\/p>\n

              Similarly, authors submitting translated or adapted material should ensure that they possess any permissions legally required to publish the material.<\/p>\n

              15. Images and Media<\/h2>\n

              Images, illustrations, photographs, videos, audio, and other media appearing on Storymore.online may be:<\/p>\n

                \n
              • Owned by Storymore.online;<\/li>\n
              • Created specifically for Storymore.online;<\/li>\n
              • Licensed from third parties;<\/li>\n

              • Used where otherwise permitted by applicable law.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                Ownership rights remain with the respective copyright owners.<\/p>\n

                If you believe an image or other media item infringes your copyright, you may report it using the procedure described in this Policy.<\/p>\n

                16. Links and Sharing<\/h2>\n

                You are welcome to share links directing readers to original Storymore.online pages.<\/p>\n

                When referring to Storymore.online content, please provide appropriate attribution where applicable.<\/p>\n

                Linking to our content does not grant permission to copy, reproduce, or republish the underlying work.<\/p>\n

                17. DMCA Designated Agent<\/h2>\n

                If Storymore.online qualifies as an online service provider and elects to seek applicable safe-harbor protections under Section 512 of the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act, additional requirements may apply, including designation and registration of a DMCA agent with the U.S. Copyright Office.<\/p>\n

                Where applicable, the registered DMCA agent’s information should be listed here:<\/p>\n

                Designated DMCA Agent:<\/strong> [INSERT NAME]
                \nOrganization:<\/strong> Storymore.online
                \nAddress:<\/strong> [INSERT BUSINESS\/AGENT ADDRESS]
                \nTelephone:<\/strong> [INSERT TELEPHONE NUMBER]
                \nEmail:<\/strong> [INSERT DMCA EMAIL]<\/p>\n

                If Storymore.online has not registered a designated agent with the U.S. Copyright Office, this section should not be interpreted as a representation that such registration has been completed.<\/p>\n

                18. International Copyright Complaints<\/h2>\n

                Storymore.online may receive visitors and copyright complaints from countries outside the Philippines.<\/p>\n

                We may review copyright complaints under applicable Philippine law and, where relevant, the laws or procedures of other jurisdictions.<\/p>\n

                Our acceptance of a complaint does not constitute an admission that a particular foreign law governs Storymore.online.<\/p>\n

                19. No Waiver of Legal Rights<\/h2>\n

                Nothing in this Copyright & DMCA Policy constitutes a waiver of any rights, remedies, defenses, exceptions, limitations, or protections available to Storymore.online, its authors, users, contributors, or copyright owners under applicable law.<\/p>\n

                20. Changes to This Policy<\/h2>\n
