Aura Live respects the intellectual-property rights of others and asks the same of everyone who uses our Platform. This Policy explains how to report copyright infringement, what a proper report looks like, and how we respond, including under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”, 17 U.S.C. § 512).
This Policy supplements our Terms of Service, Community Guidelines, and Creator & Livestreaming Terms.
Only the copyright owner, or a person authorized in writing to act on the owner's behalf, should submit a copyright infringement notice. Before you file a notice, consider whether the use might be a fair use, a licensed use, or authorized by law in some other way — filing a notice when you know the content is not infringing can expose you to liability under the DMCA.
To be effective under the DMCA, a notice must include all of the following (17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)):
Submit your notice using any of the following channels. A single notice per channel is sufficient.
Because a livestream cannot be fully reviewed after it ends, we treat copyright notices about an active live broadcast as time-sensitive. If we receive a facially valid notice about a live broadcast in progress, we may terminate the broadcast or remove specific audio or video while we investigate, even before the full review below is complete. If the claim turns out to be invalid on review, we will restore the creator's ability to broadcast and, where appropriate, clear any strike associated with the notice.
When we receive a properly completed notice, we will:
If your content was removed from Aura as a result of a copyright notice and you believe the removal was a mistake or that your use is lawful (for example, because you own the rights, have a license, or the use is fair use), you may submit a counter-notice. Under Section 512(g) of the DMCA, a counter-notice must contain:
Your counter-notice, including personal information, will be forwarded to the person who submitted the original notice so they can decide whether to sue. If we do not receive notice that the claimant has filed a lawsuit seeking a court order against you within 10 to 14 business days, we will restore the material.
Send counter-notices to the same channels listed in Section 2.
In accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(2), Aura's designated agent for the receipt of infringement notices is:
Our agent is also registered with the U.S. Copyright Office at www.copyright.gov/dmca-directory/.
Aura maintains a written policy for terminating the accounts of users who are repeat infringers of copyright:
Under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, a person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing, or that it was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees, incurred by any person alleged to have infringed, or by Aura. Do not file a notice or counter-notice unless you have a good-faith basis.
If you believe content on Aura infringes a trademark, right of publicity, or other non-copyright right, please email legal@auralive.tv with the same categories of information described in Section 2, adapted to the right you assert.
We also accept notices of infringement submitted under the UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988, Article 17 of the EU Digital Single Market Directive (EU 2019/790), the Japanese Copyright Act, and other national copyright regimes, using the same channels in Section 2. We will evaluate each notice under the law that governs the claim.
We may update this Policy as the law or our practices change. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the current version.
