Copyright & DMCA Policy

Effective Date: August 23, 2026

Welcome to Arup Sarkar Apu Blog, available at https://blog.arupsarkarapu.info.

We respect the intellectual property rights of authors, photographers, artists, publishers, creators, businesses, organizations, and other rights holders.

This Copyright & DMCA Policy explains the ownership and permitted use of content published on this website and describes how copyright owners may contact us regarding material they believe infringes their rights.

1. Copyright Ownership

Unless otherwise stated, original content created specifically for Arup Sarkar Apu Blog, including original written articles, personal stories, travel experiences, commentary, photographs, graphics, illustrations, and other original creative material, is owned by or lawfully used by Arup Sarkar Apu Blog and/or its respective creator.

Such material may be protected by applicable copyright and intellectual property laws.

Visitors are welcome to read and share links to publicly available pages and articles on this website.

Reasonable quotations or references may be permitted where allowed by applicable law, particularly for purposes such as commentary, criticism, discussion, education, reporting, or citation.

Where our original material is quoted or referenced, appropriate attribution and, where reasonably possible, a link to the original page should be provided.

Permission is not automatically granted to reproduce an entire article, photograph, graphic, or other substantial original work.

Reproduce original photographs without authorization
Sell or commercially redistribute our original content

Remove copyright notices or attribution
Systematically scrape or reproduce substantial portions of this website

If you wish to reproduce substantial original material from this website, please contact us first.

4. Third-Party Content

Some pages may contain third-party material, including photographs, quotations, videos, embedded content, trademarks, logos, maps, screenshots, or other resources.

Such material remains the property of its respective copyright or intellectual property owner.

Where third-party material is used, we aim to use it only where we reasonably believe that an appropriate legal basis exists, such as:

Permission from the rights holder
An applicable license
Creative Commons licensing
Public-domain status
Properly licensed stock material
Embedding through an authorized platform
Applicable quotation, fair-use, fair-dealing, or similar legal principles
Another lawful basis

Where attribution is required by a license or other applicable condition, reasonable efforts will be made to provide appropriate credit.

5. Photographs and Images

We aim to use:

Original photographs
Properly licensed photographs
Public-domain images
Creative Commons material used according to its applicable license
Images for which appropriate permission has been obtained
Other images that may lawfully be used

The fact that an image is available through an internet search does not automatically mean that it is copyright-free.

If you believe an image appearing on this website belongs to you and has been used without appropriate authorization, please contact us using the procedure below.

6. Trademarks

Company names, product names, service names, logos, trademarks, and other brand identifiers mentioned on this website may belong to their respective owners.

Reference to a trademark, company, product, marketplace, or service does not automatically imply endorsement, sponsorship, partnership, authorization, or affiliation.

All third-party trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.

7. Copyright Infringement Policy

We take credible copyright infringement claims seriously.

If you are a copyright owner, or an authorized representative of a copyright owner, and believe that material available on this website infringes your copyright, you may send us a written copyright infringement notice.

We will review sufficiently detailed and good-faith notices and may remove or restrict access to material where appropriate.

8. Information to Include in a Copyright Complaint

To help us investigate a copyright complaint efficiently, please provide:

1. Identification of the copyrighted work

Clearly identify the copyrighted work that you believe has been infringed.

If multiple copyrighted works are involved, you may provide a representative list where appropriate.

2. Identification of the allegedly infringing material

Identify the material on Arup Sarkar Apu Blog that you believe infringes your copyright.

Please provide the exact URL of the relevant page, post, image, or material whenever possible.

3. Your contact information

Please provide sufficient information for us to contact you, such as your:

Full name
Email address
Organization or company, where applicable
Other appropriate contact information

4. Statement of good-faith belief

Include a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or applicable law.

5. Accuracy and authority statement

State that the information provided in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Where applicable to a formal DMCA notice, the statement should satisfy the requirements of applicable law.

6. Signature

Include your physical or electronic signature where required.

Providing complete and accurate information will help us evaluate your request more efficiently.

9. What Happens After a Complaint

After receiving a sufficiently detailed copyright complaint, we may:

Review the identified material
Request additional information
Investigate the circumstances of its use
Remove or disable access to material where appropriate
Correct attribution where appropriate
Contact the person who submitted the complaint
Take other reasonable action consistent with applicable law

Submitting a complaint does not automatically establish that infringement has occurred.

10. Misrepresentation and False Claims

Do not knowingly submit false, fraudulent, misleading, or materially inaccurate copyright claims.

Depending on the applicable jurisdiction, knowingly misrepresenting copyright ownership or infringement may have legal consequences.

If you are uncertain whether a particular use constitutes copyright infringement, you may wish to obtain independent legal advice before submitting a formal legal notice.

11. Counter-Notifications and Disputes

If content is removed following a copyright complaint and the affected party believes the removal resulted from a mistake or misidentification, rights available under applicable law or the relevant platform's procedures may apply.

Because this website is hosted through Blogger, certain copyright complaints, removals, appeals, or counter-notification procedures may also be handled directly through Google or Blogger.

Where a formal DMCA counter-notification procedure applies, the relevant statutory and platform requirements must be followed.

12. Blogger and Google Copyright Procedures

This website is hosted using Blogger, a Google service.

Google maintains its own procedures for handling copyright infringement reports and DMCA notices.

Actions taken by Google or Blogger under their own policies are controlled by those platforms and may be separate from actions taken directly by this website.

13. Repeat or Serious Infringement

We do not intentionally maintain content that we know unlawfully infringes another person's copyright.

Where credible evidence demonstrates repeated or serious infringement involving user-submitted material or other content within our control, reasonable corrective measures may be taken.

14. User-Submitted Content

If this website permits comments, submissions, photographs, guest contributions, or other user-generated material, the person submitting such material is responsible for ensuring that they have the necessary rights or permissions.

By submitting material, a contributor represents that they have the right to submit it and that doing so does not knowingly infringe the intellectual property rights of others.

We may remove user-submitted material when a credible infringement concern arises.

15. Embedded Content and External Websites

Articles may contain embedded videos, social-media posts, maps, images, or links to third-party websites.

Linking to or embedding third-party material does not transfer ownership of that material to Arup Sarkar Apu Blog.

Third-party platforms may have their own copyright, licensing, and takedown procedures.

16. Fair Use, Fair Dealing, and Similar Exceptions

Copyright laws in different jurisdictions may permit limited use of copyrighted material without direct permission in circumstances such as criticism, commentary, reporting, research, education, quotation, parody, review, or other legally recognized purposes.

The availability and scope of such exceptions differ between jurisdictions.

Nothing in this policy should be interpreted as claiming rights beyond those provided by applicable law.

17. International Copyright Considerations

This website is accessible internationally.

We aim to respect applicable copyright and intellectual-property requirements while recognizing that legal standards may differ among jurisdictions.

Nothing in this policy is intended to waive rights or obligations that cannot legally be waived under applicable law.

18. Advertising and Google AdSense

This website may use Google AdSense or other advertising services.

The presence of advertising does not give this website permission to use copyrighted material unlawfully.

We aim to ensure that monetized content complies with applicable copyright requirements and relevant advertising-platform policies.

Material identified as infringing may be removed, corrected, or otherwise addressed as appropriate.

19. Copyright and Affiliate Content

The use of affiliate links does not grant permission to copy a merchant's photographs, descriptions, videos, graphics, trademarks, or other copyrighted material.

When discussing or recommending products, we aim to use original content or material that we are authorized or otherwise legally permitted to use.

Affiliate relationships, where applicable, are addressed separately in our Affiliate Disclosure.

20. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Copyright & DMCA Policy when necessary to reflect changes in:

Website operations
Copyright practices
Platform requirements
Applicable laws
Google or Blogger procedures
Other relevant circumstances

When significant changes are made, the Effective Date at the top of this page may be updated.
