Copyright
As a growing community of artists, iTG Life respects the intellectual property rights of other artists, and we expect all of our artist/sellers to adhere to this policy. We do not have an opportunity to pre-screen, review and approve every design that is submitted to our site for sale, so from time to time a user may inadvertently or deliberately submit and display art for sale that breaches the iTG Life Terms & Conditions for art submissions.
Each artist/seller account holder must confirm that each design they upload is done so only in that they are the owner of any/all designs they upload, or that they are working in conjunction with the owner with appropriate rights to the IP through partnership or promotion. Unfortunately there may be users who do not adhere to the appropriate use of IP. In the age of the internet it is impossible for any one person or organization to know every design that enjoys protection under IP law. Therefore, we comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"). The DMCA provide a method for owners of protected IP to submit an infringement claim to a service provider such as iTG Life. Once a claim is submitted, the DMCA requires that we respond in certain ways and within certain time-frames. The text of the DMCA can be found at the following link: www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf.
