By using the Services, you agree not to engage or help others engage in online piracy, copyright infringement, or any other illegal activity through the Services.
Online piracy (the illegal downloading and/or distributing of copyrighted material) is a worldwide problem. Because copyrighted material is valuable, and it is easy to create exact copies of copyrighted materials from a single computer, online piracy is widespread.
The illegal copying of copyrighted material is a crime. In the United States and many other countries, copyright law provides for severe civil and criminal penalties for the unauthorized reproduction or distribution of copyrighted material. Copyrighted material includes, but is not limited to, computer programs and accompanying sounds, images, videos, and text. Under U.S. law, infringement may result in civil damages of up to $150,000 and/or criminal penalties of up to five years imprisonment and/or a $250,000 fine.
If you violate this policy, your use of the Services may be terminated and you may be subject to the above civil and criminal penalties.
Please join us in our piracy prevention efforts. You can report incidents of suspected software piracy, including piracy of our Services or other illegal activity to webvideo@instantbits.com.
