Please provide the specific location of the material you believe infringes your rights.
Whenever possible, provide:

• Exact product-page URL.
• Exact image URL.
• Page title.

A general reference to the entire website without identifying the material may not provide enough information for review.

• Evidence supporting your authority to enforce the trademark.

11. Trademark Confusion

Trademark rights generally concern the use of marks in ways that may cause legally relevant confusion regarding matters such as:

• Source.
• Origin.
• Sponsorship.
• Affiliation.
• Approval.

Your complaint should explain why the particular use on bacooli.com allegedly violates your rights rather than merely stating that the same or a similar word, phrase, design, or logo exists.

12. Counterfeit Product Claims

If you believe a product displayed on bacooli.com is counterfeit, please provide:

• Name of the authentic brand.
• Trademark owner.

• Name of the photographer or rights owner.
• Date of creation or publication where known.

If you believe written content has been copied without authorization, identify:

• The original text.
• Its original publication location.
• The date it was published, where known.
• The rights owner.
• The allegedly infringing Bacooli page.
• The specific portions you believe infringe.

General ideas, facts, common phrases, or short functional descriptions may not necessarily be protected in the same way as original expressive content.

Depending on the claim, useful supporting evidence may include:

Do not send unnecessary sensitive personal information.

16. Review of Claims

After receiving a sufficiently detailed intellectual property complaint, Bacooli may:

• Review the information submitted.
• Verify the location of the disputed material.
• Request additional information.
• Review relevant business records.
• Contact the party responsible for relevant content where appropriate.
• Temporarily disable or remove content.
• Permanently remove content.
• Decline a claim that lacks sufficient legal or factual support.
• Take other reasonable action appropriate to the circumstances.

The action taken will depend on the nature and strength of the claim.

17. No Automatic Determination of Ownership

Receipt of an intellectual property complaint does not automatically establish that infringement occurred.

Intellectual property disputes may involve complex questions regarding:

• Ownership.
• Licensing.
• Authorization.
• Fair use.
• Exhaustion.
• First-sale principles.
• Nominative use.
• Geographic rights.
• Registration scope.
• Other legal defenses or limitations.

We may request additional documentation where necessary.

When we reasonably determine that removal or disablement is appropriate, we may remove or restrict access to the identified content.

Depending on the circumstances, this may include:

• Removing an image.
• Removing written content.
• Removing a product listing.
• Modifying a listing.
• Disabling access to material.
• Restricting repeated misuse.

Removal does not necessarily constitute an admission of infringement or liability.

19. Repeat or Serious Infringement

Where appropriate, Bacooli may take additional action regarding repeated or serious intellectual property violations.
Such actions may include:

• Removing relevant content.
• Restricting website submissions.
• Ending relationships with parties that repeatedly provide infringing material.
• Taking other measures reasonably necessary to protect intellectual property rights and website integrity.

20. Copyright Counter-Notifications

If content has been removed or disabled because of a copyright complaint and the affected party believes the removal resulted from a mistake or misidentification, that party may submit a counter-notification where legally applicable.

The counter-notification should include all information required by applicable law.

21. Information for a Copyright Counter-Notification

Where U.S. copyright counter-notification procedures apply, the counter-notification should generally include:

• Your physical or electronic signature.
• Identification of the material that was removed or disabled.
• The location where the material appeared before removal.
• A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification.
• Your full name.
• Your address.
• Your telephone number.
• Any legally required consent to jurisdiction and service of process.

Send applicable counter-notifications to:

support@bacooli.com

Use the subject line:

Copyright Counter-Notification

22. Handling a Valid Counter-Notification

Where legally applicable, a valid counter-notification may be forwarded to the original complaining party.

The disputed material may be restored where permitted or required unless the original claimant takes appropriate legal action within the applicable statutory period.

The exact procedure depends on the applicable law and circumstances.

23. False or Misleading Claims

Do not knowingly submit false, fraudulent, or materially misleading intellectual property complaints.

A person who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing may face liability under applicable law.

Claimants are responsible for ensuring that:

• Their claim is made in good faith.
• Ownership information is accurate.
• Their authority is genuine.
• Allegations are supported by a reasonable factual and legal basis.

24. False Counter-Notifications

Counter-notifications must also be submitted honestly and accurately.

Do not submit a counter-notification if you know that:

• You do not have the necessary rights.
• The disputed material was knowingly used without authorization.
• Required declarations are false.

Knowingly false statements may have legal consequences.

25. Good-Faith Claims

We encourage rights owners to submit claims only when there is a reasonable good-faith basis to believe infringement has occurred.

Before reporting content, consider whether the use may be:

• Authorized.
• Licensed.
• Subject to an applicable exception.
• Permitted under fair-use principles where applicable.
• Otherwise lawful.

26. Confidentiality and Disclosure

Information submitted in an intellectual property claim may need to be shared with:

• The party responsible for the disputed material.
• Our service providers.
• Professional advisers.
• Relevant authorities.
• Other parties where legally necessary.

For example, copyright procedures may require certain information in a complaint or counter-notification to be provided to the opposing party.

Do not submit information that is unnecessary to establish your claim.

27. Personal Information

Personal information submitted in connection with a claim may be used to:

• Verify identity.
• Verify ownership.
