DMCA Copyright Policy
AALA Technologies LLC (the “Company”) operates the Triaka platform, including triakamap.com (collectively, “Triaka”). The Company respects the intellectual-property rights of others and expects Triaka users to do the same. This Policy describes the Company’s procedures for notices of claimed copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), 17 U.S.C. § 512, counter-notifications, repeat infringers, and other intellectual-property complaints.
1. Designated DMCA Agent
The Company has designated the following agent to receive notifications of claimed copyright infringement:
Designated Agent: Abel Alexander Abreu Valdez
Service Provider: AALA Technologies LLC
Alternate Names: Triaka; triakamap.com
Registration Number: DMCA-1077119
Mailing Address: 30 N Gould St, Suite R, Sheridan, Wyoming 82801, United States
Telephone: +1 (551) 392-4487
Email: dmca@triakamap.com
Important: The contact information above should remain consistent with the Company’s current designation in the U.S. Copyright Office DMCA Designated Agent Directory. If the designated-agent email, address, telephone number, agent, or other required information changes, the Company should update both its public-facing information and the Copyright Office designation promptly.
2. Copyright Infringement Notice
If you are a copyright owner, or are authorized to act on behalf of one, and believe that material available through Triaka infringes a copyright, send a written DMCA notice to the Designated Agent containing all of the following:
1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online location are covered by one notice, a representative list of those works.
3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, together with information reasonably sufficient to permit Triaka to locate the material. When available, include the exact route, post, profile, message, image, GPX file, other file, or URL.
4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit the Company to contact the complaining party, such as name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
5. A statement that the complaining party has a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, the owner’s agent, or the law.
6. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
Before submitting a notice, the complaining party should consider whether the disputed use may be authorized by license, fair use, or another applicable legal basis. Knowingly making a material misrepresentation in a DMCA notice may result in liability under applicable law.
3. Triaka’s Response to Notices
When the Company receives a compliant DMCA notice, or otherwise obtains qualifying knowledge that requires action under applicable law, it may act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the identified material. When appropriate, the Company may notify the affected user, preserve relevant records, request additional information, and take other reasonable action.
The Company may provide a copy of a copyright notice, including the complaining party’s contact information, to the user who posted or supplied the material or to another party when reasonably necessary to administer the complaint. A deficient notice may delay action; however, the Company may act when it has other reliable information establishing a legal basis to do so.
4. Counter-Notification
If a user believes that material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification, the user may send a written counter-notification to the Designated Agent containing all of the following:
1. The user’s physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material that was removed or to which access was disabled, and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access was disabled.
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that the user has a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. The user’s name, address, and telephone number, together with consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the user’s address is located, or, if the user’s address is outside the United States, consent to the jurisdiction of a Federal District Court in which the Company may be found, and acceptance of service of process from the person who submitted the original notice or that person’s agent.
A person who knowingly makes a material misrepresentation in a counter-notification may be subject to liability under applicable law.
5. Restoration After a Counter-Notification
After receiving a valid counter-notification, the Company may forward it to the party who submitted the original copyright notice. Subject to the DMCA, the Company may restore the removed material or cease disabling access to it no fewer than 10 and no more than 14 business days after receipt of the counter-notification, unless the Designated Agent first receives notice that the original complaining party has filed a court action seeking to restrain the user from engaging in the allegedly infringing activity.
6. Repeat Infringers
The Company maintains and reasonably implements a policy providing for termination, in appropriate circumstances, of users who are repeat copyright infringers. In evaluating repeat infringement, the Company may consider valid notices, counter-notifications, retractions, court determinations, account relationships, attempts to evade enforcement, and the circumstances of each matter.
Triaka may also suspend or terminate an account, remove content, or restrict access in connection with a single serious infringement or other significant intellectual-property abuse when permitted by the Terms of Service or applicable law.
7. User Content and Copyright
Users are responsible for ensuring that content they upload, publish, share, import, or otherwise make available through Triaka does not infringe the intellectual-property rights of others. This may include photographs, route descriptions, GPX files, comments, profile content, messages, audio, and other user-generated material.
Submitting content to Triaka does not, by itself, transfer ownership of the user’s copyright to the Company. Any license granted to the Company for hosting, displaying, processing, or operating user content is governed by Triaka’s Terms of Service and other applicable policies.
8. Triaka and Third-Party Intellectual Property
The Company retains its rights in Triaka’s software, original designs, branding, logos, text, and other proprietary materials, subject to applicable law and any third-party licenses. Third-party map providers, geographic-data providers, software providers, and other licensors retain their respective rights in their maps, tiles, imagery, geographic data, software, trademarks, and other materials. Nothing in this Policy grants users ownership of third-party intellectual property.
9. Other Intellectual-Property Complaints
Complaints involving trademarks, rights of publicity, privacy, database rights, or other intellectual-property issues that are not DMCA copyright notices may be sent to legal@triakamap.com. The complaint should identify the claimant, the rights asserted, the challenged material and its location, the legal basis for the complaint, the requested action, and information sufficient to contact the claimant.
This general intellectual-property channel does not replace any notice, filing, or procedure required by applicable law. Copyright takedown notices intended to invoke the DMCA process should be sent to the Designated Agent identified in Section 1.
10. Abuse of the Copyright Process
Triaka may take appropriate action when it reasonably determines that a person is abusing the copyright complaint process, including by submitting fraudulent, misleading, or knowingly materially false notices or counter-notifications. Nothing in this section limits any rights or remedies available under applicable law.
11. Changes to this Policy
The Company may update this Policy to reflect changes in law, the Triaka platform, internal procedures, or designated-agent information. The current version will be made available through Triaka or triakamap.com. Changes to designated-agent information will also be handled in accordance with applicable U.S. Copyright Office requirements.
