Copyright & DMCA Policy

AgoFact is operated by MakeWithMe Inc, a Delaware corporation doing business as AgoFact. Students upload their own course materials to AgoFact and publish study apps built from them, so copyright matters here: our Terms of Service require that you upload and publish only material you own or have the right to use, and forbid pirated textbooks, commercial test banks, and other people’s work posted without permission.

We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 512, as described below, and we remove infringing material.

If you believe material on AgoFact infringes a copyright you own or represent, send a written notice to our designated copyright agent:

Copyright Agent, MakeWithMe Inc (d/b/a AgoFact)
Email: kero@agofact.com

To comply with 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), your notice must include all of the following:

• your physical or electronic signature, as the copyright owner or a person authorised to act on the owner’s behalf;
• identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed — or, if several works are covered by one notice, a representative list of them;
• identification of the material you claim is infringing, with enough information for us to locate it: the URL of the listing, profile, or file is best;
• your contact details — name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address;
• a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
• a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorised to act on the owner’s behalf.

A notice missing these elements may not be effective, and we may ask you for the missing information before acting.

When we receive a notice that substantially complies with the requirements above, we act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the identified material. Removing a published study app takes it out of the public catalogue and out of search; note that copies other users forked before removal live in their own workspaces, and we can disable those copies as well when the notice covers them.

We notify the user who posted the material, give them a copy of the notice — including your contact details, so they can respond — and tell them how to file a counter-notice. We may also record the notice for the repeat-infringer policy below.

If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to kero@agofact.com. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3) it must include:

• your physical or electronic signature;
• identification of the material that was removed and the location where it appeared before removal;
• a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification;
• your name, mailing address, and telephone number, together with a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the district where you live — or, if you are outside the United States, of any judicial district in which MakeWithMe Inc may be found — and that you will accept service of process from the person who filed the original notice, or their agent.

We forward a valid counter-notice to the person who filed the original notice. Unless they tell us within 10 business days that they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the alleged infringement, we may restore the material between 10 and 14 business days after receiving your counter-notice.

We keep a record of the copyright notices we act on. In appropriate circumstances we terminate the accounts of users who are repeat infringers, which ends their access to the Service, their published listings, and any unpaid creator earnings tied to infringing material. A notice that is withdrawn or successfully countered does not count against a user.

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), anyone who knowingly and materially misrepresents that material is infringing — or that it was removed by mistake — may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees. Please be sure before you file, in either direction.

For complaints that are not US copyright claims — trademark, privacy, defamation, exam-security or academic-integrity concerns from an institution, or claims under the law of another country — email kero@agofact.com with the details and we will review them. Institutions asking us to take down course material may write to the same address.
