Copyright Policy

APKPure abides by Singapore Copyright Act 2021 and honors other applicable copyright laws which protects the intellectual property rights of others and expects all the users to do same. This Copyright Policy describes the take-down procedure and restoration procedure for the copyrighted materials uploaded to APKPure.

If you believe that an App available in APKPure violates your intellectual property right, you can submit your takedown notice here.

The designated email [email protected] should ONLY be contacted for the other queries related to intellectual property right issues rather than the takedown notices. Takedown notices sent to any other email addresses may not be processed.

Copyright infringement

The APKPure Platforms Rules (including without limitation to Term of Use, Copyright Policy and Developer Agreement) do not allow uploading any content that infringes others copyrights. Each user shall ensure that he/she owns the copyright or valid authorization for the content he/she uploads. Any content that violates the intellectual property rights of others will be removed once we are notified of such violation. We also reserve the right to terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

This Copyright Policy does not constitute legal advice and should not be treated as a substitute for legal advice. You should seek independent legal advice if you are in doubt as to whether any thing constitutes a copyright infringement.

Take-down Procedure

If you think that copyright of your materials has been infringed, you are required to send a take-down notice (in the form prescribed by the Copyright Act) to APKPure's Designated email. Upon receipt of a valid take-down notice, APKPure will remove or disable access to the infringing material. We will also take reasonable steps to notify the person who has posted the material that we have removed or disabled access to the material.

Restoration Procedure

As soon as the material has been removed or access disabled, APKPure will take reasonable steps to notify the person who has posted the material (the "Respondent"). The Respondent may, within the time period prescribed by the Copyright Act, send a counter-notice (in the form prescribed by the Copyright Act) to APKPure. Upon receipt of a valid counter-notice, APKPure will take reasonable steps to restore the material unless the complainant has started court proceedings to prevent the Respondent from infringing the copyright in the material and has notified APKPure of such proceedings.

Form of take-down notice

A valid take-down notice to be sent to APKPure shall be signed by the complainant and contain all of the following information:

• name, address, telephone number, facsimile number (if any) and email address of the complainant and the address for service in Singapore if complainant is not resident in Singapore;
• sufficient information to enable APKPure to identify the infringing material;
• a statement that the complainant requires APKPure to remove/disable access to the material;
• a statement that the complainant, in good faith, believes that the material is an infringing copy;
• a statement that the information in the take-down notice is accurate;
• a statement that the complainant is the copyright owner or exclusive licensee or that he/she is authorised to act on behalf of such owner or exclusive licensee; and
• agreement that the complainant submits to the jurisdiction of the Singapore courts.
