Ownership
The content of this website — its text, design, layout, structure, source code, graphics, the Primanza seal, and the selection and arrangement of all of it — is © Primanza LLC or its licensors, and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws worldwide. All rights not expressly granted here are reserved.
The copyright notice in this site's footer shows the current year, computed when the page is displayed rather than frozen into a prerendered build. A copyright notice requires no year to be valid, and the year shown does not limit the claim: material first published in an earlier year remains protected from its own date of publication.
What you may do without asking
We publish this site to be read and referred to. Without any permission from us, you may:
- Read, print and save pages for your own reference.
- Quote from the site, with attribution, for news reporting, commentary, criticism, review, research, teaching or analysis — including analysis that is unfavourable to us.
- Link to any public page here, deep-linked, without asking and without a licence.
- Use the Primanza name to refer to Primanza accurately, as any journalist or analyst would.
These uses are permitted as a matter of our licence and, in most jurisdictions, would be permitted anyway as fair use, fair dealing, quotation or an equivalent exception. We state them affirmatively so nobody has to litigate an exception to write about us.
What requires permission
Republishing this site or a substantial part of it, presenting our material as your own, using it in a product or a commercial work, or using it to train or evaluate machine learning models (see the text and data mining reservation in the Acceptable Use Policy) requires our prior written permission.
Ask at legal@primanza.com. Describe what you want and why; we answer.
Trademarks
"Primanza", the Primanza seal, and the names of Primanza products are marks of Primanza LLC, whether or not registered. Rights in unregistered marks arise from use and are enforceable; the absence of a registration symbol is not an abandonment of any right.
You may use our marks nominatively — to identify us or our products truthfully. You may not use them in a manner likely to cause confusion as to source or affiliation, as part of your own name, mark, domain, product, application icon or social media account, or in a way that suggests we endorse, sponsor or are connected with you. Third-party names and marks appearing on this site belong to their owners and are used nominatively.
Third-party and open-source material
This site is built with open-source software, used under its respective licences, and those licences are honoured. Any third-party material incorporated into the site is used with permission or under an applicable licence or exception. If you believe something here is used without the right to use it, tell us — the procedure below is the fastest way to get it looked at.
Reporting infringement
This website hosts no user-generated content: everything published here is placed here by the company. The safe harbour for storage of material at the direction of a user under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c) therefore has little to operate on, and we have not designated an agent with the United States Copyright Office because we do not rely on that safe harbour. We say this plainly rather than implying a registration we do not hold.
We nevertheless take infringement claims seriously and act on them. If you own a copyright, or are authorised to act for an owner, and you believe material on this site infringes it, write to legal@primanza.com with a notice containing:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the copyrighted work you say is infringed.
- Identification of the material you say is infringing, with enough detail — a URL — for us to find it.
- Your address, telephone number and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorised by the owner, its agent or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorised to act for the owner.
These are the elements of a compliant notice under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3); we ask for them because they are what makes a claim actionable rather than an assertion. We will review a complete notice promptly and remove or disable material that infringes.
If you file a notice, be careful that it is true. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), a person who knowingly and materially misrepresents that material is infringing is liable for the damages that misrepresentation causes, including costs and legal fees. Notices sent to suppress criticism or competition rather than to protect a copyright fall squarely within that provision.
Counter-notification
If material of yours was removed from a Primanza service in error or as a result of misidentification, you may send a counter-notification to the same address. It should contain your signature, identification of the removed material and where it appeared, a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief it was removed by mistake or misidentification, your contact details, and your consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the district of your address — or, if you are outside the United States, for any district in which the service provider may be found — and your agreement to accept service of process from the party who filed the original notice.
Repeat infringers
Primanza's products terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who repeatedly infringe the copyright of others. Each product implements that policy within its own account system and states it in its own terms.
