Copyright legally protects original works (e.g., music, videos). It safeguards an original expression of an idea but not the underlying ideas or facts.

Copyright Infringement

Unpress UNPRESS disallows content that infringes on copyright. Unauthorized use of copyrighted content without proper authorization or valid legal reason may violate our policies. However, exceptions to copyright infringement, such as fair use in the United States or fair dealing in the European Union, permit using copyrighted works under specific circumstances without authorization.

Content that infringes on another's copyright may be removed, and accounts may be suspended or terminated for multiple copyright violations or other breaches of Terms of Service, Community Standards, or Editorial Standards.

You can contact the content creator directly or file a Copyright Infringement Report to request content removal.
