At Firasti.com, we respect intellectual property (IP) rights and are committed to protecting the work of freelancers and clients. This page outlines the process for handling intellectual property claims, ensuring a safe and fair environment for all users on our platform.

1. Ownership of Work

Freelancers retain ownership of the intellectual property they create, unless otherwise agreed upon. Upon project completion and payment, clients receive the right to use the work as specified in the project agreement. The transfer of IP rights should be clearly outlined in the contract between the freelancer and the client.

2. Copyright Infringement

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been used or reproduced without your permission on Firasti.com, you can submit an intellectual property claim. We will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action if the claim is valid. Please provide sufficient evidence to support your claim of copyright infringement.

3. Filing an Intellectual Property Claim

To file an IP claim, please contact Firasti.com’s support team with the following details:

  • Your full name and contact information
  • A description of the copyrighted work you believe has been infringed
  • The URL of the page where the infringement occurred
  • Evidence of ownership or authorization of the copyrighted work
  • A statement declaring that you believe in good faith that the content was removed or disabled in error

Once your claim is received, our team will review it and take action according to the applicable laws and our platform policies.

4. Handling IP Disputes

In case of an IP dispute between a freelancer and a client, both parties are encouraged to resolve the issue amicably. If resolution cannot be reached, Firasti.com offers dispute mediation services. We will facilitate communication to help reach a fair and legal solution, but Firasti.com does not take responsibility for IP ownership disputes.

5. User Responsibility

Users of Firasti.com must ensure that they only upload, share, or use content they have the rights to. This includes images, videos, text, and other intellectual property. Users are prohibited from uploading infringing materials. If a user violates intellectual property rights, their account may be suspended or terminated.

6. Protection of Freelancers’ Work

Freelancers on Firasti.com should take the necessary steps to protect their intellectual property. This includes watermarking images, maintaining copies of work, and ensuring contracts specify IP ownership terms. While Firasti.com provides a platform for freelancing, it is the responsibility of the freelancer and client to manage IP ownership rights.

7. Reporting a Claim

If you believe that a user is violating your intellectual property rights, you can report the issue to Firasti.com. Our team will promptly investigate the claim and take necessary actions to prevent further infringement. Repeat violations may result in account suspension or termination.

8. Fair Use and Licensing

If any freelancer’s work is licensed for specific use, this should be clearly defined in the project agreement. Clients must respect licensing agreements and the terms of use outlined by the freelancer. Unauthorized use of licensed content will be subject to legal action.

9. Legal Action

Firasti.com acts as an intermediary platform and is not responsible for resolving intellectual property disputes. If you believe that your intellectual property rights have been infringed upon, you may pursue legal action independently. Firasti.com will cooperate with relevant legal authorities as required.

10. Changes to IP Policy

Firasti.com reserves the right to modify this intellectual property claims policy at any time. Any updates will be posted on this page. Users are advised to review this policy regularly to stay informed of any changes.
