📄 Hustle Big Network – Copyright & Fair Use Policy

Effective Date: 01/01/2025

We respect creators. We protect originality. We play fair.
At Hustle Big Network, we thrive on content — but only the kind that respects ownership, rights, and the law. This policy breaks down how we handle copyrights, what “fair use” means around here, and how you can file a DMCA notice if your content gets misused.

🔏 1. Your Content, Your Rights

Anything you create and upload — that’s yours. We don’t own your work. You’re just giving us permission to showcase it on Hustle Big (see our Terms of Service).

But if you post someone else’s work? You better have:

• Permission

• A license

• Or a valid Fair Use reason

📚 2. What’s “Fair Use”?

Fair use is that legal lane where certain copyrighted content can be reused without permission — if it meets these kinds of criteria:

• Purpose: Is it educational, commentary, news, or parody?

• Amount: Are you using just a small piece, not the whole thing?

• Transformative: Did you remix it with new meaning or value?

• Effect: Does it replace the original and hurt its market?

⚠️ Reminder: Just because it’s online, doesn’t mean it’s free to use. You still need to follow the rules.

⛔ 3. What’s NOT Fair Use

Here’s what won’t fly:

• Reposting full movies, songs, or articles without permission

• Uploading copyrighted artwork, clips, or beats without credit or license

• Sharing someone else’s content and pretending it’s yours

• Using others’ intellectual property in ads, NFTs, or merch drops

🧾 4. Copyright Owners: File a DMCA Takedown

If someone on Hustle Big Network is using your work without permission, you’ve got rights. Send us a DMCA takedown notice with:

• Your name and contact info

• A clear description of the copyrighted work

• The exact URL where it’s being used

• A statement saying you own the work or are authorized to act

• A signature (typed is fine)

📩 Email it to: [email protected]

We’ll investigate and take swift action.

🔁 5. Wrongly Taken Down? File a Counter Notice

Think your content was taken down unfairly? You can file a counter-claim if:

• You believe it’s fair use or you have permission

• The claim was a mistake or misidentification

📩 Email [email protected] with:

• Your name and contact

• What was removed and where it was

• A statement saying you believe it’s a mistake and why

• A statement you accept jurisdiction if it goes legal

• Your signature

We’ll review and respond as per DMCA protocol.

🛠 6. Repeat Offenders Get Cut

We believe in second chances — but not endless ones.
If you repeatedly upload content that violates copyright, your account will be banned. Period.
