Plushvie Content Usage Policy

1. Introduction

Plushvie is a platform that aggregates and organizes information accessible from a wide array of third-party websites and public domains. By sourcing and showcasing snippets and summaries of publicly available data, Plushvie aims to provide users with a convenient, comprehensive search experience for items and related content. Users can find brief previews of products and categories, along with direct links to the original sources. This Brand and Content Usage Policy ("Policy") is designed to ensure that Plushvie upholds transparency in its use of third-party content, fully respects copyright laws, and adheres to ethical usage practices. By setting these standards, Plushvie demonstrates its commitment to intellectual property rights and the legal boundaries of content aggregation.

2. Objective of the Policy

• The primary objectives of this Policy are threefold: to clarify Plushvie’s role as an aggregator of publicly available information, to ensure that Plushvie’s practices remain within the legal boundaries of copyright compliance, and to guide the appropriate use of Plushvie’s brand and aggregated content by users, partners, and employees. By establishing Plushvie’s position as a content aggregator rather than a content creator, this Policy aims to assure stakeholders that Plushvie respects the intellectual property of other websites and entities. Additionally, this Policy is designed to provide a clear framework for Plushvie’s employees, partners, and affiliates, helping them understand the company’s commitment to ethical sourcing and use of publicly accessible information and content in full compliance with copyright and intellectual property standards.
  

• Non-Monetary Benefits for Content Creators: The platform merely serves to aggregate publicly available data, and any advertisements or affiliate links visible on external sources will remain with the content creators. By redirecting users to the original content source, Plushvie ensures that creators can maintain their potential for revenue generation, while benefiting from additional exposure to users accessing their content through the platform.

3. Scope of Use of Public Information

• Use of Information from Public Websites: Plushvie is committed to using only information from publicly accessible sources, including online catalogs, blogs, information sites, and other databases that share content publicly. These sources are openly available on the internet, making the data accessible to anyone without requiring permission to view. Plushvie carefully selects sources that are intended for public viewership, ensuring that no restricted, proprietary, or paid-access data is used. This approach reaffirms Plushvie’s dedication to upholding copyright boundaries and intellectual property rights while using information shared with the public.

• Non-Exclusive Access: The information aggregated and displayed on Plushvie’s platform includes descriptions of product categories, and preview visuals sourced with the understanding that they are accessible to the public. Plushvie does not claim exclusive access to any content from third-party sites, nor does it imply ownership or unique rights over the aggregated data. By sourcing data that is openly shared, Plushvie ensures that it respects the original content creators' intellectual property rights, using the content strictly within its intended public scope.
  

• Informational Purpose Only: All content aggregated and displayed by Plushvie serves an informational purpose. The Platform’s goal is to assist users in browsing and discovering relevant information and guiding them to the original sources for complete details. Plushvie does not claim ownership over any third-party content nor seeks to redistribute it in a manner that could replace the original source. Users are encouraged to explore further on the original sites, which retain full ownership and control over their content.

4. Copyright and Intellectual Property Compliance

1. No Copyright Infringement

• Plushvie takes copyright compliance as a core element of its operations. By sourcing and using only publicly accessible data, Plushvie ensures it does not infringe on the copyrights of any third-party website. All links, summaries, and brief information snippets displayed on the Platform are sourced with the understanding that they are either publicly shared under an open-access policy, a Creative Commons license, or similar terms that make them accessible for public reference. Plushvie does not reproduce entire sections of original content, and the Platform’s use of aggregated data is limited to preview information that directs users to the source, making it clear that Plushvie acts as a facilitator of public content rather than a primary content provider.

• Plushvie aggregates and presents publicly available information from various online sources. This usage is compliant with Section 52 of the Copyright Act, 1957, which provides for fair use of published works for the purpose of research, study, or reporting. Since the content is publicly accessible, no copyright infringement occurs. This will ensure that the original content creators are properly credited, and the use of this information remains non-commercial and within the fair use framework. Additionally, Section 51 of the Copyright Act protects the
  

rights of content creators by specifying actions that may constitute infringement.

2. Links to Third-Party Sites

• Plushvie provides hyperlinks to the original websites from which snippets, images, or descriptions are sourced. These links serve as a clear reference to the content's origin, ensuring users have direct access to the full context of the information on the source websites. Plushvie does not imply ownership or affiliation with any linked sites unless specifically stated, ensuring that the intent is solely to improve the user experience by providing easy access to a range of relevant information. The links help maintain transparency, allowing users to independently verify content and explore the original material further if desired.

3. Use of Snippets and Previews

• To support users in navigating and exploring content, Plushvie may display limited snippets or previews of content. These previews could include short text descriptions, titles, or thumbnail images, all intended solely to give users a quick glimpse into the content available on the source websites. Plushvie strictly limits these snippets to brief summaries that are non-substitutable and minimally invasive. This ensures that the user is encouraged to visit the original source for full details and further content exploration. By adhering to fair use principles, Plushvie emphasizes its commitment to respecting the original authorship and intellectual property rights of third-party sites.

5. Representation of Plushvie Brand and Third-Party Content

1. Brand Consistency and Representation
   

• Plushvie's brand is founded on consistency, professionalism, and ethical representation, and its logo, name, and branding elements must align with the company’s mission and values. All content, messages, or links that represent the Plushvie brand require prior approval to ensure they reflect the principles of trust, transparency, and respect for intellectual property. Employees, partners, and affiliates are responsible for adhering to these guidelines, ensuring that Plushvie's reputation and compliance standards are upheld. The platform is dedicated to maintaining consistent branding and will clearly distinguish its content from external sources. Additionally, Plushvie prohibits any misleading or false claims about the brands or products featured, ensuring compliance with Section 30 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, to avoid trademark infringement and preserve transparent branding practices.

2. Proper Attribution and Acknowledgment

• Plushvie acknowledges third-party sources by providing clear name and mentions of the original sites where applicable. This form of attribution is critical for upholding the intellectual property rights of content owners and ensures that users can easily identify and access the full information on the source website. All third-party trademarks, logos, and brands are and remain the property of their respective owners, and their presence on Plushvie’s platform does not imply endorsement or affiliation with Plushvie unless specifically stated. This approach demonstrates Plushvie’s respect for content ownership and commitment to responsible content aggregation practices.

6. Restrictions on Content Modification and Distribution

1. Restricted Use for Commercial Gain
   

• Prohibition of Offensive Content: Plushvie is committed to ensuring that no offensive, illegal, or harmful content is provided through its platform. This aligns with the Information Technology (Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures and Sensitive Personal Data or Information) Rules, 2011 under Section 79 of the Information Technology Act, 2000, which imposes obligations on intermediaries to avoid hosting offensive or harmful content. The platform will enforce content moderation policies and ensure that the aggregated data, reviews, and user-generated content adhere to ethical and legal standards.

• Purpose of Aggregation: The primary purpose of aggregating content on Plushvie is to allow users to efficiently explore and find information on products from various sources. It is designed to direct users to the original source for full access to the content, where they can view more details, make purchases, or engage further with the site. The content aggregated by Plushvie should not be seen as a direct substitute for the original content provided by third-party websites; instead, it serves as a preview or guide that encourages users to visit the original source for authorized use and full access.

• Prohibited Commercial Use: Users, affiliates, or third parties who access Plushvie’s platform are prohibited from using the aggregated content for any commercial purposes, including:

• Reposting on Other Platforms: Content found on Plushvie cannot be reposted, republished, or redistributed on other commercial websites or platforms for the purpose of driving traffic, sales, or generating revenue.

• Selling or Licensing Aggregated Content: The content aggregated by Plushvie cannot be sold, licensed, or sublicensed to third parties in any way that would enable others to profit from it.

• Repackaging for Profit: Any attempt to repurpose the content— whether it’s text, images, or product listings—into a packaged
  

product or service for sale, without permission from the original content owners, is prohibited.

• Fair Use and Ethical Use: Plushvie supports the ethical use of third- party content. Aggregation is meant to facilitate users' access to relevant information, but users are expected to engage with the original source for more in-depth interaction. All affiliates, partners, and users of the platform are expected to respect this distinction and avoid any activities that could lead to the exploitation of third-party content for personal or commercial gain.

• Enforcement and Compliance: Plushvie actively monitors the use of aggregated content and takes steps to ensure that it is used in compliance with this Policy. Any affiliate, partner, or user found using aggregated content in violation of this restriction will be subject to corrective actions. These actions may include the removal of content, suspension of access to the platform, or legal action, depending on the severity and nature of the violation.

• Encouraging Original Content Creation: Plushvie encourages content creators to develop their own unique material, such as reviews, product descriptions, or blog posts, to be shared in an ethical and lawful manner. Users and partners are also urged to generate original content rather than relying solely on aggregated information for profit-making activities.

• Legal Consequences of Violation: Any violation of this restriction for commercial gain could result in legal action taken by Plushvie, depending on the nature of the misuse. If users, affiliates, or partners
  

engage in activities that violate copyright or intellectual property laws, they may be liable for damages and subject to penalties under applicable law.

7. Transparency and User Rights

1. Transparency in Content Source and Ownership

• Plushvie is committed to ensuring that users clearly understand the source and ownership of all content displayed on the platform. Each snippet, preview, or linked item includes clear attribution to the original source, typically through direct hyperlinks or explicit mentions of the content owner. As an aggregator, Plushvie does not claim ownership of third-party content nor position itself as the author. Content ownership remains with the respective creators or platforms providing the data. Plushvie ensures that the aggregated information does not infringe upon intellectual property rights, as protected under Section 57 of the Copyright Act. It is the responsibility of content creators to ensure they possess the necessary rights and permissions to share their data. Plushvie will not be liable for any inaccuracies, omissions, or damages arising from reliance on externally sourced information, as the platform solely serves as an intermediary, redirecting users to the original sources.

2. User Responsibility and Awareness

• Users of Plushvie are encouraged to respect intellectual property and copyright laws, as well as the terms and conditions set by original content owners. Plushvie’s role is to facilitate access to content and direct users to its source, and it expects users to follow the usage terms specified by third-party websites when sharing or interacting with the content. Plushvie provides a clear path for users to explore further on
  

third-party platforms, ensuring that respect for intellectual property remains central to the user experience.

3. Market Trends and Forecasting

• Plushvie will provide valuable insights regarding market trends and forecasting, focusing on market developments. This information will be curated based on publicly available data or research commissioned by Plushvie. All trends and forecasts provided will be for informational purposes only and not constitute financial or investment advice.

8. DMCA Compliance and Content Removal Requests

1. Content Removal Requests

• Plushvie respects the rights of content owners and offers a clear process for those who believe their intellectual property rights have been infringed. If a third-party source or content owner identifies content on Plushvie that they believe has been improperly used, they are encouraged to submit a content removal request to Plushvie via email. Plushvie reviews all requests promptly and, if appropriate, will either remove or adjust the content to resolve any potential infringement issues. The Platform’s swift response to such requests emphasizes Plushvie’s commitment to copyright compliance.

2. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Compliance

• Plushvie abides by the principles of the DMCA, adhering to best practices in copyright compliance. Valid claims for copyright infringement are promptly addressed by removing or modifying content if necessary. Plushvie reserves the right to restrict access to or
  

take down content that does not comply with this Policy or infringe on the rights of original content owners. Plushvie’s adherence to the DMCA reinforces its commitment to responsible content aggregation and copyright protection.

3. Jurisdiction and Dispute Resolution

• In the event of any legal issues or disputes arising from the use of the Plushvie platform, the jurisdiction will be limited to Ahmedabad. This ensures that all legal proceedings, including those related to intellectual property, will occur within this jurisdiction. For any dispute resolution through arbitration, Plushvie shall appoint a mediator of its choice, ensuring neutrality and impartiality in the arbitration process. This can be backed by a clause in the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 (Section 12, Section 16), which allows parties to agree upon the terms of the dispute resolution process and the mediator to be appointed.
