Intellectual Property Policy

At Mozeegal, we hold intellectual property rights in high regard and maintain a strict policy against the listing or sale of items that infringe on others’ trademark, copyright, or patent rights. We are committed to responding promptly to any report of intellectual property infringement that complies with our intellectual property policy by taking down or disabling access to the allegedly infringing material.

Main types of Intellectual Property Protected

The Mozeegal “Intellectual Property” encompasses four distinct categories of legal protection. The first of these is Copyright, which applies to creative works such as literature, art, music, film, software code, and photography that are original and exist in a tangible medium. Trademark protection, the second category, is afforded to registered words, phrases, designs, or combinations thereof that distinguish one’s goods or services from those of others and indicate their origin. Patents, the third category, are granted to novel and useful designs that are capable of being used in industry. Finally, the Right of Publicity exists to prevent the unauthorized commercial use of an individual’s name, likeness, or other characteristics that are identifiable with their persona.

Report Infringement

If you have reason to believe that your intellectual property rights, or those of an individual or entity you are authorized to represent, are being infringed upon, we respectfully request that you report the matter to us. Upon receipt of your report, we will promptly undertake an investigation of the listings or contents in question. We kindly request that any such report submitted to Mozeegal be made in good faith and under penalty of perjury, attesting to the fact that the identified material violates valid and subsisting intellectual property rights. In addition, please provide us with proof of rights, pertinent information regarding the rights holders, and preliminary evidence of infringement via email at shop@mozeegal.com
