Copyright Policy

ArtaFishal respects intellectual property rights. We comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), the Australian Copyright Act 1968 (Cth), and similar copyright laws globally.

Sonar/Chart Screenshots: When users upload sonar or bathymetric chart screenshots, we analyse them with AI and store only the text analysis results. The original images are automatically deleted after processing. We do not redistribute copyrighted charts or images.

User-Uploaded Content: Users may also upload photos when logging catches. If you believe a photo or any other content uploaded by a user infringes your copyright, please follow the notice procedure below to request its removal.

If you believe your copyrighted work has been used in a way that constitutes infringement, please send a takedown notice to our designated agent with the following information:

• Physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner (or authorised representative)
• Description of the copyrighted work
• Description of where the infringing material is located on ArtaFishal
• Your contact information (address, phone, email)
• Statement of good faith belief that use is not authorised
• Statement that the information is accurate and you are authorised to act on behalf of the copyright owner

• Your physical or electronic signature
• Identification of the removed material and its prior location
• Statement under penalty of perjury that removal was a mistake or misidentification
• Your contact information
• Consent to the jurisdiction of the relevant court (Federal Court of Australia for Australian residents, or applicable US federal court for DMCA claims)

We will terminate accounts of users who repeatedly infringe copyright. If you receive multiple valid copyright complaints, your account may be permanently suspended.

In addition to the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) provisions above, ArtaFishal also respects the rights of copyright holders under the Australian Copyright Act 1968 (Cth). If you believe your copyright has been infringed and you are located in Australia, you may contact us using the same procedure outlined above.

ArtaFishal operates as a platform where users upload screenshots for personal analysis and photos for catch logging. We do not pre-screen content but respond promptly to valid takedown notices.

Important: Sonar/chart screenshots uploaded for analysis are not stored or redistributed. We only retain AI-generated text analysis for the user who uploaded the image. Catch photos are stored in the user's account and can be removed upon valid copyright notice.
