• Evidence of willful infringement

Account Actions for Repeat Infringers:

• First offense: Warning and content removal

• Third offense: Permanent account termination

7. Safe Harbor Provisions

Lufy qualifies for safe harbor protection under the DMCA as a service provider. We do not monitor user-uploaded content for copyright infringement but respond promptly to valid DMCA notices. We reserve the right to remove content that we believe in good faith infringes copyright, even without a formal DMCA notice.

8. International Copyright Issues

While the DMCA is US law, we respect copyright laws worldwide. If you are a copyright owner outside the United States, you may still submit a notice using the DMCA format, or contact us directly to report copyright infringement.

International Considerations:

• We comply with applicable international copyright treaties
• Local copyright laws may provide additional protections
• We may work with international legal representatives
• Translation services may be available for non-English notices

9. Content ID and Automated Detection

We are developing automated content identification systems to help detect potential copyright infringement:

• Audio fingerprinting technology
• Database matching against known copyrighted works
• Automated flagging and review processes
• Integration with industry databases

These systems supplement, but do not replace, our DMCA compliance procedures. Users may still submit formal DMCA notices for content not caught by automated systems.

10. Educational Resources

We encourage users to understand copyright law and fair use:

• US Copyright Office: www.copyright.gov
• Fair Use Guidelines: Copyright.gov Fair Use
• Creative Commons: creativecommons.org
