Protecting Intellectual Property: Our Commitment and Your Role

At handlens.com, we recognize the vital importance of protecting intellectual property to preserve the integrity of creative works and personal identity. Laws governing copyright, trademarks, and publicity rights are essential in ensuring that original ideas, brand elements, and individual likenesses are used lawfully and respectfully.

Copyright Protection

Copyright law safeguards the tangible expression of original ideas—such as photographs, illustrations, written works, and other creative content. It grants creators exclusive rights to reproduce, distribute, and display their work, ensuring their efforts are not exploited without consent.

Trademark Rights

Trademarks serve to protect brand identity by securing distinctive words, logos, symbols, or designs that distinguish a product or service. Trademark protection ensures that consumers can confidently associate quality and origin with a particular brand, preventing confusion and counterfeit activity.

Publicity Rights

Publicity rights protect individuals from unauthorized commercial use of their name, image, or likeness. These rights help individuals retain control over their public identity and prevent exploitation for marketing or profit without permission.

If you believe that your intellectual property or publicity rights have been violated on our website or mobile application, we urge you to take immediate action by submitting a formal takedown request.
