---

Effective Date: March 1, 2025

Last Updated: January 6, 2026

Preamble

Ahgoo Inc. (“Ahgoo”) is committed to protecting intellectual property rights and fostering a digital ecosystem that respects creativity, ownership, and compliance with applicable laws. As a global platform, Ahgoo serves users across the United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Latin America, Europe, and other regions worldwide. Intellectual property laws vary by jurisdiction, and Ahgoo seeks to operate responsibly within this global legal landscape.

Ahgoo adheres to applicable U.S. intellectual property laws, including the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), as well as international frameworks such as the Berne Convention, the TRIPS Agreement, and the WIPO Copyright Treaty. Where applicable, Ahgoo also aligns with regional laws including, but not limited to, Canada’s Copyright Act, Mexico’s Federal Copyright Law, Brazil’s Lei de Direitos Autorais, and the European Union Copyright Directive (EU 2019/790).

Copyright Overview

Copyright is a legal right that protects original works of authorship, including user-generated videos, audio, images, text, and other creative or multimedia content uploaded to Ahgoo. Copyright protects the original expression of ideas, but not the underlying ideas, facts, or general concepts themselves.

Users retain ownership of the content they create and upload. By uploading content to Ahgoo, users represent and warrant that they own or have obtained all necessary rights, licenses, and permissions to use and distribute that content on Ahgoo, including any music, sound recordings, images, or third-party materials.

Ahgoo does not allow content that infringes on the intellectual property rights of others.

Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) – United States

Ahgoo Inc. complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. §512) and qualifies as a service provider under the DMCA. Ahgoo responds to properly submitted notices of alleged copyright infringement in accordance with the law.

Designated DMCA Agent

Designated Agent:
Ahgoo Inc. – DMCA Agent

Email: dmca@ahgoo.com

Address: 112 Ferguson Ave, Broomall, PA 19008

Only notices submitted to the Designated DMCA Agent and that comply with DMCA requirements will be treated as valid DMCA takedown notices.

Submitting a DMCA Takedown Notice

To submit a DMCA notice, the copyright owner or authorized agent must provide the following:

1. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed
2. Identification of the allegedly infringing material, with sufficient information to locate it on Ahgoo
3. Contact information for the complaining party (name, address, phone number, email)
4. A statement of good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the  copyright owner, its agent, or the law
5. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner
6. A physical or electronic signature

DMCA notices must be sent to dmca@ahgoo.com.

Counter-Notification (DMCA)

If content has been removed due to a DMCA notice and the user believes the removal was the result of mistake or misidentification, the user may submit a counter-notification in accordance with 17 U.S.C. §512(g).

A valid counter-notification must include:

• The user’s name, address, phone number, and email
• Identification of the removed content and its prior location
• A statement under penalty of perjury that the removal was a mistake or misidentification
• Consent to jurisdiction of the appropriate U.S. federal court
• A physical or electronic signature

DMCA counter-notifications must be submitted to dmca@ahgoo.com.

Repeat Infringers

Ahgoo reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances, consistent with the DMCA and applicable law.

International Copyright Considerations (Non-DMCA)

Copyright laws outside the United States vary by jurisdiction. In some regions, limited statutory exceptions may permit certain uses of copyrighted content, such as quotation, criticism, parody, education, or news reporting. These exceptions are interpreted under local law and do not automatically prevent content removal under Ahgoo’s policies.

Brazil

Copyright is governed by Lei de Direitos Autorais (Law No. 9,610/1998). Brazilian law does not recognize a broad “fair use” doctrine but provides limited statutory exceptions. Content found to violate Brazilian copyright law may be removed, and repeat offenders may face account suspension or termination.

Rest of Latin America

Many Latin American countries adhere to the Berne Convention. National laws include:

• Argentina:      Law No. 11,723
• Mexico: Ley Federal del Derecho de Autor
• Colombia:      Law 23 of 1982
• Chile:      Law 17.336

Ahgoo processes copyright complaints in accordance with applicable local laws where required.

European Union

Under EU law, including Article 17 of the EU Copyright Directive, certain uses may qualify for exceptions such as quotation, criticism, parody, caricature, or pastiche. Even where exceptions apply, content remains subject to Ahgoo’s Community Guidelines and enforcement standards.

Trademark Policy

A trademark is a word, symbol, logo, slogan, design, or combination thereof that identifies the source of goods or services. Ahgoo’s trademarks and brand elements (“Ahgoo Marks”) are valuable assets protected by law.

Trademark Infringement

Unauthorized use of trademarks in a manner likely to cause confusion, deception, or false association is prohibited. This includes misrepresentation, impersonation, false endorsement, counterfeiting, or misleading affiliation.
