IP PrinciplesIP Principles

We value Intellectual Property (IP), which includes copyright, trademarks, and other IP rights, and recognize their role in fostering a safe, vibrant and innovative community. We are committed to safeguarding these rights to strengthen the trust and confidence of our users, partners, and the broader community.

Our commitment is built on the following principles:

1. We aim to provide a user-friendly process for the submission of IP infringement complaints to facilitate the removal of infringing content and goods. We encourage rights holders to follow our guidelines and policies to promote effective and consistent handling of claims.
2. We are committed to taking a firm stance against infringements of IP rights. In cases of serious or repeat violations, actions may include account suspension, legal action, and law enforcement cooperation, as appropriate.
3. We strive to leverage technology and draw on our experience to implement a holistic strategy aimed at monitoring and addressing potential violations on our platform before they are reported by rights holders, according to the respective legal requirements in each jurisdiction which we operate in.
4. We work closely with IP rights holders, industry associations, and government bodies to develop and implement best practices for IP protection. Our aim is to cultivate a collaborative approach in safeguarding IP rights while ensuring equitable treatment for all parties involved, including our users and merchants.
