Copyright, Trademark and Rights Policy

This candidate document is provided for legal and operational review. It is not effective, does not replace any existing agreement, and must not be used to collect consent until TCW records final approval and a publication date.

TCW does not take ownership of member content. Publishers and sellers must obtain all permissions needed for media, music, samples, artwork, products, brands, locations, collaborators and depicted people. Crediting a source, buying a copy or finding material online does not necessarily grant publishing or commercial rights.

A copyright owner or authorized agent may send a notice to "Copyright Agent, Talent Connect World LLC" at info@talentconnect.world and 1835 E Edgewood Dr, Suite 105-523, Appleton, WI 54913. Do not attach unnecessary identity or sensitive evidence by ordinary email.

A complete notice should include the claimant's physical or electronic signature; identification of the copyrighted work or a representative list; identification and location of the material to be removed; reasonably sufficient contact information; a good-faith statement that the use is not authorized; and a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and the sender is authorized to act.

TCW may request clarification, restrict material during review, forward relevant portions of a claim to the affected member and remove or disable access when appropriate. TCW will not treat an obviously incomplete or abusive report as proof. Law may require disclosure of a notice or counter-notice, so do not include information unrelated to the claim.

A member who believes material was removed through mistake or misidentification may submit a physical or electronic signature; identification and former location of the material; a statement under penalty of perjury of good-faith belief in mistake or misidentification; name, address and telephone number; consent to the jurisdiction of the appropriate U.S. federal court, or the applicable process for a person outside the United States; and acceptance of service from the original claimant or agent.

Where the statutory process applies, TCW may restore material after forwarding a valid counter-notice unless the claimant timely notifies TCW of a court action. A counter-notice has legal consequences; obtain legal advice if unsure.

For trademark, passing-off, publicity, privacy, performer or contract-right claims, identify the right, registration or factual basis; exact content or product; likely confusion or unauthorized use; authority to act; and requested remedy. TCW assesses these claims under applicable law and policy rather than applying the copyright counter-notice process automatically.

TCW may terminate accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances, considering reliable notices, counter-notices, retractions, court outcomes and pattern severity. Knowingly false claims, forged permissions or fraudulent counter-notices may lead to enforcement and legal liability.

Before TCW represents that it relies on a U.S. statutory safe harbor, it must register and keep current its designated copyright agent with the U.S. Copyright Office and publish matching contact information. This candidate page identifies the intended role and process but is not proof that the external registration has been completed.
