DMCA POLICY

Our Commitment to Copyright Compliance

At Apollo IPTV, we take intellectual property rights seriously and are committed to complying with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and all applicable copyright laws. We respect the rights of content owners and respond promptly to legitimate copyright infringement claims.

This DMCA Policy outlines how Apollo IPTV handles copyright-related matters, how copyright holders can report alleged infringement, and what happens when we receive valid takedown notices. We operate our streaming platform with full respect for intellectual property, and this policy demonstrates that commitment.

If you believe content available through Apollo IPTV infringes your copyright, this page explains exactly how to notify us and what information we need to process your claim effectively.

What is the DMCA?

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) is a United States copyright law that provides a framework for copyright holders to request removal of infringing content from online platforms. The law also provides safe harbor protections for service providers who comply with DMCA requirements and respond appropriately to copyright infringement notices.

Under the DMCA, copyright holders can submit takedown notices to service providers when they believe their copyrighted material is being used without authorization. Service providers must then act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material.

Apollo IPTV’s Role and Responsibilities

What We Do: Apollo IPTV operates as a technology platform that provides IPTV streaming services to subscribers. We maintain servers, develop software, and provide customer support for our streaming infrastructure.

What We Don’t Do: Apollo IPTV does not create, upload, or control the content available through our service. We aggregate and deliver content streams, but we do not own or produce the underlying copyrighted material.

Our Compliance Commitment:

  • We respond to all valid DMCA takedown notices within the timeframes required by law
  • We maintain a designated Copyright Agent to receive infringement claims
  • We have procedures in place to remove or disable access to allegedly infringing material
  • We respect the counter-notification process outlined in the DMCA
  • We have a policy of terminating accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances

Repeat Infringer Policy

Apollo IPTV maintains a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers of copyright. We may terminate access to our service for users who:

  • Receive multiple valid DMCA takedown notices
  • Repeatedly upload or distribute copyrighted material without authorization
  • Demonstrate a pattern of copyright infringement

Account termination decisions are made at our sole discretion based on the severity and frequency of violations.

Misrepresentation and Abuse

False DMCA Claims: Submitting a false or fraudulent DMCA notice is illegal and may result in:

  • Civil liability for damages, including costs and attorney fees
  • Criminal prosecution for perjury
  • Permanent blacklisting from our platform

We take false claims seriously and may pursue legal action against those who abuse the DMCA process.

Fair Use Consideration: Before submitting a DMCA notice, please consider whether the use of copyrighted material might qualify as fair use under U.S. copyright law. Fair use is a legal doctrine that permits limited use of copyrighted material without permission for purposes such as criticism, commentary, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, or research.

If you’re uncertain about whether specific content constitutes fair use, we recommend consulting with a legal professional before filing a DMCA notice.

Limitations and Disclaimers

Not Legal Advice: This DMCA Policy is for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. If you have specific questions about copyright law or the DMCA process, please consult with an attorney.

No Guarantee of Results: While we process all valid DMCA notices, we cannot guarantee that all allegedly infringing content will be permanently removed from the internet or inaccessible through all means.
