DMCA Policy AO Gas

Effective Date: 5 May 2025

DMCA Policy AO Gas: Ao Gas (Pty) Ltd (“AoGas”, “we”, “us”, “our”) respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects our users to do the same. In accordance with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), upon proper notification of claimed infringement, we will act swiftly to remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material and notify the alleged infringer.

Notice Requirements DMCA Policy AO Gas

Your notice must include the following elements to be valid under the DMCA (17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)): Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed (e.g., title, registration number, URL of authorized version). Identification of the allegedly infringing material on our site, with sufficient detail to locate it (e.g., exact URL). Your contact information, including full legal name, postal address, telephone number, and email address. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material in question is unauthorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the owner. Your physical or electronic signature (typed name suffices for electronic submissions).

Counter-Notification

If you believe your content was removed in error, you may submit a counter-notice to our Designated Agent. Your counter-notice must include: Identification of the removed material and its original location on our site. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake or misidentification. Your full legal name, address, telephone number, and email address. A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of your local federal district court (or if outside the U.S., any federal district where AoGas may be found) and agreeing to accept service of process from the party who provided the original DMCA notice. Your physical or electronic signature. Upon receipt of a valid counter-notice, we will promptly notify the original complainant and, unless the complainant files a lawsuit seeking a court order to restrain the allegedly infringing activity, we may restore the removed material after 10 business days.

Repeat Infringer Policy

AoGas reserves the right to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers. We may also block access from IP addresses associated with repeat infringement.

Safe Harbor

To the extent permitted by law, AoGas’s role is that of a passive conduit, caching provider, or hosting provider, and we do not have actual knowledge of infringing activity. By following the procedures above, we seek to maintain our “safe harbor” protections under the DMCA.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this DMCA Policy at any time. Any changes will be posted here with an updated “Effective Date.” Continued use of our services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
