Repeat Infringer Termination Policy

Pursuant to the Terms of Service, users may not store, change, distribute, perform or display works of original authorship. Users are responsible for assuring that they have proper authorization to use copyrighted content. Upon receipt of a valid notice that a user’s account contains infringing material, Premiumize.me will immediately disable all access to the material, including the user’s access. In addition, we will deactivate the sharing function for the account. We will notify the user via email of the actions taken by Premiumize.me in response to the take-down notice and will inform him that one instance of violation has been put on record for that account under the “three-strike” rule of the Repeat Infringer Termination Policy.

The user will be able to reactivate the file-sharing function only after he certifies through an electronic signature option on the Premiumize.me website that he has removed all copyright infringing material from his account.
