GENERAL
This Copyright Policy set forth contains information about Copyright notions, Rights and infringements, and the procedure available to copyright holders and/or their agents to remove allegedly infringing materials on AIOPVideo.com .
By adopting the copyright policy toward copyright infringement AIOP Video recognizes, the DMC policy and is in accordance with the DMC(Digital Millennium Copyright) Act, also to EU regulation for copyright.
COPYRIGHT NOTION AND BEST PRACTICES
According to copyright law, in order to be eligible for copyright protection, a work must be creative and it must be fixed in a tangible medium. Names and titles are not, by themselves, subject to copyright, but may be subject to trademark.
Copyright is just one form of intellectual property.
It's not the same as the trademark, which protects brand names, mottos, logos, and other source identifiers from being used by others for certain purposes. It is also different from patent law, which protects inventions.
The creator of the work automatically owns the copyright to the work.
As the copyright owner, they have the exclusive right to use the work. Usually, only the copyright owner can decide whether someone else has permission to use the work.
Examples: paintings, posters, and advertisements, TV shows, movies, and online videos, sound recordings, and musical compositions, lyrics, and lectures, articles, books, plays and musicals, computer games, software, etc.
Copyright and Privacy are different things.
You, or details about you, may appear in someone else’s video, but you do not own the copyright on the video, you can only claim privacy infringement if you did not agree or approve the data about you.
Fair use, Creative Commons and Permissions
Some work owners may choose to allow others to reuse their work under certain conditions and they grant Creative Commons license with the respective requirements.
Also, is possible to use copyright-protected work without infringing on the owner’s copyright.
This can be done through “fair use” .
“Fair use” is a legal doctrine that says you can reuse copyright-protected material under certain circumstances without getting permission from the copyright owner. BUT the “fair use” rights are different from country to country, so I better to seek more information about this doctrine and legal advice.
Or can be done by getting permission to use someone else's content in your video.
AIOP Video cannot grant you the right to use content that has already been uploaded to the site. If you wish to use someone else’s YouTube video, you may want to reach out to them directly. If you want to include copyright-protected material in your video, you’ll generally need to seek permission to do so first. AIOP Video cannot grant you these rights and we are unable to assist you in finding and contacting the parties who may be able to grant them to you. This is something you’ll have to research and handle on your own or with the assistance of a lawyer.
Public Domain Rights
In time, copyrighted works eventually lose their copyright protection and fall into the “public domain,” making them free for everyone to use. But this typically takes many years. Keep in mind that the rules for the public domain differ from country to country.
Nevertheless, it is your responsibility to verify that a work is in the public domain before you upload it
Licensing third-party content
Licenses have explicit permission for using the content and often include limitations for how the content is used. You should seek legal advice for any licensing agreement to be certain which rights are granted and which rights are reserved by the owner. First, reach out to the copyright owners or rights holders directly and obtain the appropriate licenses for your use. Prior to uploading a video, you must get the rights to all elements in your video—music (even if it’s just playing in the background), video clips, photos, etc.
Even if you give the copyright owner credit, posting videos that include content you purchased may still violate copyright law.
Note something, often ignored, that leads to copyright infringement: just because you recorded something yourself does not always mean you own all rights to upload it. If what you recorded includes someone else's copyrighted content, such as copyrighted music playing in the background, then you would still need to get permission from the appropriate rights owners.
REPORTING COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT
Each user must ensure that the materials they upload do not infringe on any third-party copyright. AIOP Video will promptly remove materials in accordance with the Copyright regulations when properly notified that the materials infringe a third party's copyright.
Upon receiving the complaint, the AIOP Video and All In One Profits® company copyright policy entitles us to :

Copyright Takedown Procedure
Copyright law requires sites like AIOP Video to process takedown requests and describe the process we must follow. A copyright takedown requires the owner to submit a formal notice to us with all the legal requirements filled out.
If you choose to submit a copyright takedown request, remember that you're starting a legal process.
