Repeat infringers
We block sessions of users we have determined to be repeat copyright infringers. A "repeat infringer" means a user against whom we have received and acted on more than one valid takedown notice.
Bad-faith notices
Submitting a takedown notice for content you do not own rights to, or to silence speech you disagree with, is subject to liability under applicable law, including 17 U.S.C. §512(f) and Indian copyright-law equivalents. We do not relay bad-faith notices.
Jurisdiction
Agyata is operated from Bengaluru, India. Copyright disputes are handled primarily under Indian copyright law; we also honour valid notices received under applicable international regimes including the US DMCA where claimants are entitled to use that regime.
