Infringement Policy

At Sock Essentials, we are committed to respecting the intellectual property rights of others and expect the same commitment from our community, partners, and users. We strive to create a positive, respectful space where creativity, innovation, and style can thrive without any compromise. This Infringement Policy outlines our stance on intellectual property rights and details the process for reporting potential infringements.

1. Commitment to Intellectual Property Rights

Sock Essentials respects all applicable intellectual property laws and expects our users to do the same. We are dedicated to selling original products, developed through quality craftsmanship and innovative design. We aim to provide an environment free of unauthorized reproductions or imitations. Our commitment to authenticity not only fosters trust with our customers but also protects the hard work of creators and brands across the industry.

2. Recognizing Intellectual Property Violations

Intellectual property infringement occurs when unauthorized use of another party’s protected work, such as trademarks, patents, or copyrights, is present. This includes:

  • Trademark Infringement: Unauthorized use of a registered logo, brand name, or slogan that may confuse customers about the source of a product or service.
  • Copyright Infringement: Reproduction, distribution, or display of original works (including designs, images, text, or patterns) without the owner’s permission.
  • Patent Infringement: Unauthorized use of a patented process or product innovation without the patent holder’s permission.

At Sock Essentials, we take these matters seriously and are dedicated to responding promptly to any potential claims of infringement.

3. Reporting an Infringement

If you believe that any content, design, or product offered by Sock Essentials infringes on your intellectual property rights, please notify us promptly. We have a thorough process in place to handle such reports.

To file a claim, please email [email protected] with the following information:

  • Your Contact Information: Full name, email address, and any other relevant details.
  • Description of the Infringed Work: A clear and detailed description of the original work or item that you believe has been infringed upon.
  • Location of the Infringement: The specific page or product listing on Sock Essentials where the alleged infringement is located.
  • Proof of Ownership: Documentation proving that you own or are authorized to act on behalf of the intellectual property rights in question (such as trademark registration, copyright certificate, or patent).
  • A Statement of Good Faith: A statement indicating that you have a genuine belief that the disputed use of the content is unauthorized by the intellectual property owner.
  • Signature: An electronic or physical signature to validate the complaint.

Please ensure that all provided information is accurate and complete, as we may need to reach out for further clarification.

4. Sock Essentials’ Response to Infringement Reports

Upon receiving a properly filed infringement notice, Sock Essentials will promptly investigate the claim. Our response may include any of the following actions:

  • Temporary or Permanent Removal: We may temporarily or permanently remove or disable access to the product or content alleged to infringe upon intellectual property rights.
  • Further Review: In cases where the claim needs additional validation, we may reach out to both the reporting party and the listed user or partner to gather more information.
  • Notification of the Alleged Infringer: If applicable, we will notify the individual or entity whose product or content is subject to the claim. This notification will include details of the report without revealing confidential information about the reporting party.

Sock Essentials reserves the right to take appropriate action based on the evidence provided. We may also seek legal advice where necessary to ensure we are handling the matter in compliance with applicable laws.

5. Counter-Notice and Resolution

If you have received an infringement notice from Sock Essentials and believe that the claim is unfounded or a mistake, you have the right to submit a counter-notice. Please include:

  • Your Contact Information: Name, email, and any additional contact information.
  • Identification of the Material: Specific details of the content or product removed, along with its location on Sock Essentials.
  • Statement of Good Faith: A statement asserting your belief that the reported infringement was incorrect or unauthorized.
  • Acknowledgment of Legal Consequences: An acknowledgment that by submitting a counter-notice, you consent to legal jurisdiction should any legal disputes arise.
  • Signature: An electronic or physical signature.

Counter-notices should be directed to [email protected]. Once received, we will review the counter-notice and, where appropriate, may reinstate the content or product. Our goal is to reach a fair resolution that respects the rights of both parties involved.

6. Repeat Infringements

Sock Essentials reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts that are found to repeatedly infringe on intellectual property rights. We aim to foster a positive, creative environment, and habitual violations disrupt this community. Accounts associated with multiple confirmed cases of infringement may be restricted from further use of our services.

7. No Legal Advice

Please note that this Infringement Policy does not constitute legal advice. If you have questions or concerns about intellectual property rights or the filing process, we recommend consulting with a qualified legal professional. Sock Essentials assumes no responsibility for misunderstandings related to intellectual property law or the submission process.

8. Policy Modifications

Sock Essentials may update this Infringement Policy periodically to ensure it aligns with evolving legal standards and company practices. Any changes will be posted on this page, and we encourage users and partners to review this policy regularly. Continued use of Sock Essentials after modifications signifies acceptance of the revised policy.
