Repeat IP Complaint

If SmarDIY receives repeated notices that you have posted others’ intellectual property without permission, SmarDIY may terminate your account. SmarDIY has a system for keeping track of repeat violators of intellectual property rights of others, and determining when to suspend or terminate your account.

Generally, when content is removed that you posted because the intellectual property owner of that content sent us a complete legal request to do so, you will get an intellectual property strike. If you receive three intellectual property strikes within a one-year period, your account will be suspended for a period of one month. If you receive four intellectual property strikes within a one-year period, your account will be suspended for a period of three months. If you receive five intellectual property strikes within a one-year period, your account will be suspended for a period of six months. If you receive six intellectual property strikes within a one-year period, your account will be terminated.

If you submit a counter-notice in response to the intellectual property owner’s notice and that counter-notice is not answered by the intellectual property owner, or if the dispute leads to legal proceedings that result in a court finding that you have not infringed the owner’s intellectual property, SmarDIY will take away the strike that you were given for posting that content. Likewise, if the intellectual property owner retracts his or her notice, SmarDIY will take away the strike.

SmarDIY reserves the right to terminate accounts that act against the spirit of the Terms of Service, regardless of how many strikes are involved.

Instances of further infractions can lead to possible suspension or termination of the allegedly infringing party’s account.

For additional information regarding these policies, please reference SmarDIY’s Frequently Asked Questions section.

Terms of Agreement Prevail Over Seller’s Campaign Purchase Order. The parties intend for the express terms and conditions contained in this Agreement (including any schedules and exhibits hereto), and the pricing terms as set forth for each campaign, to exclusively govern and control each of the parties’ respective rights and obligations regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, and this Agreement is expressly limited to such terms and conditions.

This Agreement and the Terms of Service shall be governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws.

  • The product itself is flawed
