This Digital Millennium Copyright Act policy (“DMCA Policy”) applies to the www.schemeindia.co.in website (“Website” or “Service”) and any related products and services (collectively, “Services”). It explains how we, the Website operator (“Operator”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), address copyright infringement notifications, and how you (“you” or “your”) can submit a copyright infringement complaint.
We understand how important intellectual property is to each creator and how much effort goes into producing unique work. Protecting these creative efforts is equally important to us. We sincerely request that our users, as well as their authorized agents, share these values and help protect the content we all work so hard to build. In line with this, we are committed to responding swiftly and carefully to clear notifications of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) of 1998. For further details, you can always access the full text of the DMCA on the U.S. Copyright Office website.

What to Consider Before Submitting a Copyright Complaint
Before proceeding with a copyright complaint, we urge you to consider whether the material in question might fall under “fair use.” Fair use allows brief excerpts of copyrighted material to be used, without permission, for specific purposes such as criticism, news reporting, teaching, and research. Understanding this distinction is vital, as it can protect the interests of all parties involved.
If you’re unsure whether the material you’re reporting truly constitutes infringement, it may be wise to consult an attorney before taking any further steps.
It’s important to note that when submitting a copyright complaint, the DMCA requires you to provide personal information. If you have concerns about sharing this information, we suggest hiring an agent to submit the complaint on your behalf.
Notifications of Infringement
If you are a copyright holder or an authorized agent acting on behalf of one, and you believe that any material available on our Services infringes on your copyrights, we encourage you to contact us by submitting a formal copyright infringement notification (“Notification”). The process may feel overwhelming, but please know that we are here to ensure it runs as smoothly as possible. We appreciate your patience and attention to detail, as all Notifications must comply with the requirements outlined by the DMCA.
Once your Notification is submitted, we will review it carefully. If it’s accurate, valid, and complete, we will take necessary action, which could include removing or restricting access to the material in question. In the event we remove or restrict access to content, we will do our best to inform the affected user with full transparency, providing details on the removal or restriction.
That said, please understand that we reserve the right not to act on any DMCA complaint if it does not meet the full legal requirements.
The steps outlined in this policy are not meant to limit our options. We may pursue other available remedies if infringement is suspected.
Changes and Amendments
We believe in evolving and growing to meet the needs of our community. That’s why we reserve the right to modify this Policy or its terms related to the Website and Services as we see fit. If we make changes, we will update the effective date at the bottom of this page and may inform you via the contact information you’ve shared with us.
These updates will take effect immediately upon posting, unless otherwise noted. Your continued use of the Website and Services after the update signifies your agreement to the new terms. We are committed to transparency and will always strive to keep you informed.
