DMCA & Copyright Policy

The website rbesolov.com (the «Website») is owned and operated by a private individual — Renat Besolov (the «Rightholder»). The Website is not, and does not act on behalf of, any organisation, legal entity or media outlet; it is personal and informational in nature.

All materials on the Website — texts, images, video, graphics, design elements, databases, catalogues and other works — are the result of intellectual activity and are protected by copyright and related rights. Information on the Website is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute a public offer within the meaning of civil law.

Rights in the Website's materials are protected under international and European instruments, including the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works, the WIPO Copyright Treaty, Directive 2001/29/EC (InfoSoc) and Directive (EU) 2019/790 on copyright in the Digital Single Market.

The handling of notices concerning allegedly illegal content follows Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (Digital Services Act, DSA), Article 16 «Notice and action mechanisms». For notifiers located in the United States, the procedure is also framed in DMCA format — 17 U.S.C. § 512.

Use of the Website's materials is permitted only with the Rightholder's prior written consent, except for free uses expressly allowed by applicable law (quotation, illustration, etc.).

If you believe in good faith that any material on the Website infringes your copyright or related rights, please send a substantiated notice to the contact below. To be valid and handled promptly, the notice must contain:

1. a sufficiently substantiated explanation of why the material is considered infringing, identifying the protected work and confirming your rights in it;
2. a clear indication of the exact location of the material — the full URL (or URLs) of the Website page where it appears;
3. your name and contact details, including an email address for correspondence;
4. a statement of your good-faith belief that use of the material is not authorised by the rightholder, its agent or the law;
5. a statement that the information in the notice is accurate and complete and that you are the rightholder or authorised to act on its behalf — under penalty of liability for false statements (for DMCA notices, under penalty of perjury);
6. the electronic or physical signature of the rightholder or its authorised representative.

Knowingly false or bad-faith notices may render the notifier liable for damages under applicable law.

Notices are handled in a timely, diligent, non-arbitrary and objective manner (Article 16 DSA). Receipt of a notice is acknowledged, and a decision is taken within a reasonable period — as a rule, within a few business days of receiving a complete and correct notice.

Where sufficiently substantiated, access to the contested material may be restricted or the material removed. The notifier and, where possible, the person who provided the material are informed of the decision and its reasons in accordance with Article 17 DSA («Statement of reasons»), including information on available redress.

If your material has been removed or disabled and you believe in good faith that this resulted from a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notice containing: identification of the removed material and its former location (URL); your statement, under penalty of liability, of good-faith belief that the removal was a mistake; your contact details; and your electronic or physical signature.

Counter-notices are assessed objectively; absent legal impediments or a court injunction, access to the material may be restored.

Personal data provided in a notice or counter-notice is processed solely to handle the request and protect rights, on the legal bases of Article 6(1)(c) (compliance with a legal obligation) and Article 6(1)(f) (legitimate interests) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR).

To enable the right to a counter-notice, information from the request (including the substance of the claim and the notifier's contact details) may be forwarded to the person who provided the contested material. Data is retained for as long as necessary to handle the request and observe limitation periods. You may exercise your data-subject rights (access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection) under Articles 15–22 GDPR. See the Privacy Policy for details.

The Rightholder may restrict access or take other reasonable measures against systematic infringement. This page is informational, does not constitute legal advice and creates no contractual obligations. Where it conflicts with mandatory provisions of applicable law, those provisions prevail.
