ANYTASK PLATFORM – INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE

The AnyTask Platform allows Buyers and Sellers to engage directly with each other in order to buy and sell digital products and services.

We require that any User Generated Content must meet all the Content Standards that we specify from time to time.

User Generated Content is not actively moderated or approved of by us and its presence on the AnyTask Platform cannot be considered or deemed to be an endorsement or approval of it by us.

The Task matching services that we provide, for clarity, are whereby Sellers and Buyers are able to search for each other’s User Generated Content and NOT by way of any intervention or positive action on our part to co-ordinate users requirements.

If you believe that any User Generated Content appearing on the AnyTask Platform infringes any of your intellectual property rights as the rights owner, please complete the form set out below (NOTICE OF INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY) which is the first step in our procedure (outlined below) in dealing with your complaint and send it to us through: https://support.anytask.com and by doing so, you will be deemed to have accepted our requirements set out below.

This process and these requirements do NOT apply to any Task related issues between Buyers and Sellers, please use the mechanism within the AnyTask Platform or contact https://support.anytask.com.

PLEASE NOTE:

Incomplete, inaccurate or unsigned notices will not be accepted and ALL fields MUST be completed for us to be able to commence a take-down investigation.

As part of our investigations, we will disclose extracts from your complaint to the relevant user that you allege is infringing your rights in order to allow them to respond directly to you.

Fraudulent complaints will be reported to the relevant law enforcement authorities in your jurisdiction and civil proceedings will be issued to recover any costs, or expenses incurred including legal fees.
