- Otherwise lawfully used
Do not submit a claim merely because you dislike, compete with, or disagree with a product or website.

After receiving a sufficiently detailed claim, we may:
- Review the information provided.
- Locate the disputed material.
- Review available ownership or licensing information.
- Request additional documentation if necessary.
- Contact relevant parties where appropriate.
- Remove, restrict, modify, or retain the material depending on the outcome of the review.
Submitting a claim does not automatically guarantee removal of content.
15. Incomplete Claims
If a claim does not contain enough information for us to identify the material or understand the alleged infringement, we may request additional information.
A claim may not be actionable if it lacks:
- Identification of the protected right
- Identification of the disputed material

- Supporting evidence
- A clear explanation of the alleged infringement
16. Removal or Restriction of Content
If we determine that material should be removed or restricted, we may take appropriate action, including:
- Removing an image
- Removing text
- Updating a product listing
- Disabling access to disputed content
- Removing other applicable materials
The action taken will depend on the specific circumstances and available information.
17. Restoration or Reinstatement
If disputed content was removed based on incomplete or incorrect information, we may restore it where appropriate after reviewing additional evidence.
We may also consider information provided by the person or entity responsible for the disputed material.
18. Response From the Affected Party
Where appropriate, a person or organization whose content is challenged may be given an opportunity to provide:
- Proof of ownership
- Licensing information
- Authorization documents
- Evidence of lawful use

Please provide:
- Your full name
- Identification of the affected material
- Original page URL, if available
- Explanation of why you believe the claim was incorrect
- Evidence supporting your right to use the material
- Relevant licenses, permissions, or ownership documentation
This process is separate from any formal statutory counter-notification procedure that may apply under specific law.
20. Repeat or Serious Infringement
Where we identify repeated, deliberate, or serious infringement, we may take additional action where appropriate.
This may include:
- Removing affected materials
- Restricting further publication
- Ending relationships with relevant content providers
- Taking other reasonable protective measures
21. Licensed Content
Some content appearing on geadwr.com may be:
- Licensed
- Supplied by authorized vendors
- Provided by service providers
- Used with permission
- Obtained from lawful commercial sources
The fact that material is not created directly by Geadwr does not necessarily mean that it is used without authorization.
22. Fair or Permitted Use
Some uses of protected material may be permitted under applicable law.
We will consider relevant legal exceptions and limitations when evaluating a claim.
A claim does not automatically establish infringement solely because protected material appears on the website.
23. Third-Party Content
Certain materials may originate from third-party suppliers, service providers, licensors, or other authorized sources.
If a claim concerns third-party-provided material, we may contact the applicable provider for:
- Ownership information
- Licensing documentation
- Authorization records
- Other relevant evidence
24. Trademark Nominative or Descriptive Use
In some circumstances, a trademark may be referenced lawfully for identification, compatibility, description, comparison, or other legally permitted purposes.
The presence of a third-party trademark does not necessarily imply:
- Ownership by Geadwr
- Sponsorship
- Endorsement
- Affiliation
unless expressly stated.
25. No False Affiliation
Geadwr does not intend to falsely represent sponsorship, endorsement, affiliation, or authorization by another brand or rights holder.
If you believe website content creates a materially misleading impression of affiliation, please submit a detailed claim for review.
26. Reporting Counterfeit Concerns
If you believe a product or listing raises a legitimate counterfeit concern, please contact:
Provide:
- Product URL
- Brand name
- Trademark information
- Evidence of your rights
- Explanation of the concern
- Supporting documentation
We will review credible reports based on the information provided.
27. Confidential Information
Please do not send passwords, full payment card numbers, or unrelated sensitive personal information with an intellectual property claim.
Submit only information reasonably necessary to support the claim.
28. Privacy
Information submitted with an intellectual property claim may be used to:
- Evaluate the claim
- Verify ownership
- Contact the claimant
- Contact relevant third parties
- Resolve disputes
- Maintain records
- Comply with applicable law
Personal information is handled according to our Privacy Policy.
29. Sharing Claim Information
Where reasonably necessary, some information from a claim may be shared with:
- The person responsible for the disputed content
- Rights holders
- Legal advisors
- Service providers
- Authorities where legally required
We aim to limit sharing to information reasonably necessary for the applicable purpose.
30. No Legal Determination
Our review of an intellectual property claim is an operational assessment based on the information available to us.
We do not act as a court and do not make binding legal determinations regarding ownership or infringement.
Parties remain free to pursue rights and remedies available under applicable law.
31. Legal Rights and Remedies
Nothing in this policy prevents a rights holder or affected party from:
- Seeking independent legal advice
- Contacting relevant authorities
- Pursuing court remedies
- Using another statutory intellectual property process
This policy does not limit any legal rights available under applicable law.
32. Separate Copyright Notice Procedures
Where a specific formal copyright notice or statutory takedown procedure applies, claimants should follow the requirements of that procedure.
Geadwr may maintain a separate copyright or DMCA-related policy for notices that are subject to specific statutory requirements.
33. Abuse of the Claim Process
The intellectual property reporting process must not be used to:
- Harass another party
- Suppress lawful competition
- Submit knowingly false ownership claims
- Remove lawful content without a legitimate basis
- Interfere with legitimate business activity through misrepresentation
We may reject claims that appear abusive, fraudulent, or unsupported.
34. Response Time
We aim to review properly submitted intellectual property claims within a reasonable period.
The time required may vary depending on:
- Complexity of the claim
- Completeness of documentation
- Need for additional verification
- Number of works or URLs involved
- Responses required from third parties
Submitting complete documentation helps avoid unnecessary delays.
