Copyright Infringement and DMCA Compliance Policy

Effective from October 1, 2018

This website and related services (the “Website”) are operated by Gaan Baksho Group Pty Ltd trading as GaanBaksho Music (“we”, “us”, “our”). We are an Australian company and operate globally through partnerships and distribution of content to digital platforms worldwide.

We take claims of copyright infringement seriously and will respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with applicable law. Where relevant, and to support international notice-and-takedown workflows, we administer copyright complaints in a manner consistent with the Online Copyright Infringement Liability Limitation Act of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512) (the “DMCA”).

If you believe any materials accessible on or from the Website infringe your copyright, you may request removal of those materials (or access to them) by submitting written notification to our designated copyright agent as set out below.

Designated Copyright Agent

Email: [email protected]
Subject line: DMCA Notice / Copyright Infringement Notice

If you do not comply with the requirements of Section 512(c)(3) of the DMCA, your notice may not be effective.

Submitting a DMCA Notice (Copyright Infringement Notice)

To be effective, your written notice (a “DMCA Notice”) must include substantially the following:

  • Your physical or electronic signature

  • Identification of the copyrighted work you believe has been infringed, or—if multiple works are involved—a representative list of such works

  • Identification of the material you believe to be infringing in a sufficiently precise manner to allow us to locate it (for example, relevant URLs, page paths, platform links, release titles, and/or other identifiers)

  • Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, including your full name (and organisation, if applicable), postal address, telephone number, and email address (if available)

  • A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted material is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law

  • A statement that the information in the notice is accurate

  • A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorised to act on behalf of the copyright owner

We may request further information where reasonably required to assess your claim.

Misrepresentations and Bad-Faith Claims

Please be aware that if you knowingly materially misrepresent that material or activity on the Website is infringing, you may be held liable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) under Section 512(f) of the DMCA.

We reserve the right to reject notices that are incomplete, inaccurate, abusive, or submitted in bad faith.

Counter Notification (If You Believe Material Was Removed in Error)

If you believe that material you posted on the Website was removed, or access to it was disabled, by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter notification (a “Counter Notice”) to [email protected].

To be effective, your Counter Notice must include substantially the following:

  • Your physical or electronic signature

  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access was disabled

  • Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, including your full name, postal address, telephone number, and email address (if available)

  • A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification

  • A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if you reside outside the United States, any judicial district in which the Website may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person (or an agent of that person) who provided the original DMCA Notice

Restoration of Content Following a Counter Notice

The DMCA allows us to restore removed content if the party who filed the original DMCA Notice does not file a court action against you within the timeframes prescribed by the DMCA after receiving a copy of your Counter Notice.

Please also be aware that if you knowingly materially misrepresent that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may be held liable for damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) under Section 512(f) of the DMCA.

Repeat Infringers

It is our policy, in appropriate circumstances and at our discretion, to disable and/or terminate accounts or access for users who are determined to be repeat infringers.

Australian Operations and Global Scope

While we are an Australian company, our services and content distribution operate across multiple jurisdictions and platforms globally. We apply DMCA-aligned processes to support international copyright enforcement and counter-notification workflows commonly required by global digital service providers.

Reservation of Rights

Nothing in this policy constitutes an admission of liability, wrongdoing, or ownership. We reserve all rights available to us at law, including the right to decline action on notices that do not meet legal requirements, and the right to seek additional information to verify authority, ownership, and accuracy.
