Copyright & Intellectual Property Notice Policy

1. Scope of This Policy

Foldque respects copyright and other intellectual property rights. Foldque does not acquire ownership of user-generated content merely because it is uploaded to the platform. Users are responsible for having the rights and permissions necessary for the content they upload and share. Foldque evaluates valid infringement notices under applicable law and platform rules.

2. Copyright or Intellectual Property Infringement Notice

If you believe material available through Foldque uses a work or right owned by you, or by a rights holder you are authorized to represent, without authorization, you may send a notice to dmca@foldque.com.

To help us evaluate your notice, please provide as much of the following information as reasonably possible:

The name and contact information of the rights holder or the person authorized to act on the rights holder’s behalf.
A sufficient description of the copyrighted work or other right you believe has been infringed and, where appropriate, a link or other information identifying the original material.
The specific Foldque URL for the material you believe is infringing, or enough information for us to reasonably locate it.
A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the complained-of use is not authorized by the rights holder, its agent, or the law.
A statement that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the rights holder or are authorized to act on the rights holder’s behalf.
Where required, an electronic or physical signature or other information reasonably necessary to verify authority.

We may request additional information where a notice is incomplete or unclear.

3. Review and Possible Actions by Foldque

After receiving a valid notice, Foldque may review the notice and the relevant content, request information from the user who submitted the content, and, depending on the circumstances, limit visibility, adjust search-engine indexing signals, temporarily disable access, or remove the material.

Removal or restriction does not, by itself, constitute a final legal determination of ownership or infringement. Subject to mandatory law, Foldque may decline to act on notices that are manifestly unfounded, abusive, or lack enough information to identify the material or the claimed right.

4. Objection / Counter-Notice

If you believe your content was restricted or removed because of a mistake, misidentification, or because a valid right or permission was overlooked, you may send an objection to dmca@foldque.com. Identify the affected material, explain why you believe the action was mistaken, provide your contact information, and include information supporting your right to use the material.

If applicable law provides a specific counter-notice procedure, Foldque may request the information required by that law and process the matter accordingly.

5. U.S. DMCA Notices

Where the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) applies, copyright owners should include the elements required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) in a takedown notice. Where applicable, a counter-notice may also be required to satisfy 17 U.S.C. § 512(g).

DMCA notices and counter-notices may be sent to dmca@foldque.com. This section does not prevent a rights holder in Türkiye or another jurisdiction from submitting a general copyright or intellectual property infringement notice under the preceding sections.

6. Repeat Infringement

Foldque may remove content, restrict sharing or publishing features, suspend accounts, or, where appropriate, terminate accounts in cases of repeated or serious intellectual property infringement. Foldque may consider the nature of the alleged infringement, valid notices, user responses, and applicable legal obligations.

7. False or Bad-Faith Notices

Knowingly false, misleading, or bad-faith infringement notices may harm others and may carry legal consequences. Before submitting a notice, make sure you have a reasonable basis for the claim and that you own the relevant right or are authorized to act for the rights holder.
