Infringement Policy

PlayBox Technology UK Ltd (the “Company”) has implemented procedures for receiving written notification of (a) claimed copyright infringement, (b) claimed violations of other intellectual property rights, or (c) content that is otherwise alleged to be illegal. How you contact the Company and the steps required to submit a notice are set out below and will differ depending on the nature of your notice. Please note that the Company operates primarily as the creator and operator of middleware solutions that allow content providers who use the Company’s services (“Content Providers”) to stream their content (“Third Party Content”) to their subscribers (the “Subscribers”), either directly or through third party providers of cloud services that are engaged by the Company (“Cloud Partners”). The Company may terminate its services to Content Providers who violate our policies, including by violating the copyright and other intellectual property rights of third parties. But neither the Company nor its Cloud Partners has the ability to remove Third Party Content that is hosted by the Content Providers or other third parties. Depending on the nature of the services offered by the Company and/or its Cloud Partners to a specific Content Provider, the Company and/or its Cloud Partners are entitled to rely upon sections 107 and 198, CDPA and Fraud Act 2006, which limit the liability of certain intermediaries whose involvement with Third Party Content is limited to transitory digital network communications and/or system caching. Specifically, the Company and its Cloud Partners meet the requirements of sections 107 and 198, CDPA because:

• All transmission or availability of Third Party Content through the Company and/or its Cloud Partners is initiated or directed by a person or entity other than the Company or its Cloud Partners;
• The Company and its Cloud Partners do not select the Third Party Content or the recipient of the Third Party Content;
• Neither the Company nor its Cloud Partners modifies the Third Party Content, including any associated advertising, from the time it leaves the Content Provider to the time it is viewed by the Subscribers;
• Both the Company and its Cloud Partners comply with all rules concerning the refreshing, reloading or other updating of Third Party Content that are specified by the Content Providers in accordance with a generally accepted industry standard data communications protocols for the system or network through which the Content Providers make their Third Party Content available;
• The services provided by the Company and its Cloud Partners do not interfere with the ability of the Content Providers’ technology to return the information that would have been available to the Content Providers if their Third Party Content had been obtained by their Subscribers directly from the Content Providers (provided that such technology meets the requirements of CDPA); and
• As a provider of middleware, the Company works with the Content Providers to ensure that appropriate security is in place so that the Company and its Cloud Partners permit access to Third Party Content in significant part only to each Content Provider’s Subscribers.
