Intellectual Property Policy: Your Copyrights and Trademarks
Horizon Worlds is committed to helping people and organizations protect their intellectual property rights. By installing, accessing or using Horizon Worlds, you agree to our Terms of Service. Our Terms of Service do not allow content that infringes someone else's intellectual property rights (e.g. copyright or trademark) when using Horizon Worlds. If a user repeatedly infringes someone else's intellectual property rights using Horizon Worlds, the user's Horizon Worlds account may be terminated under Horizon Worlds repeat infringement policy.
Please note that submitting a report of intellectual property infringement is a serious matter with potential legal consequences. Intentionally submitting misleading or otherwise fraudulent reports of copyright or trademark infringement may lead to Horizon Worlds taking action, including termination of your Horizon Worlds account.
For copyright, it's important to note that intentionally submitting a misleading or fraudulent report may also lead to liability for damages under section 512(f) of the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) or similar laws in other countries.
Intellectual property
The law in most countries recognises copyrights as well as trademarks. Copyright law and trademark law serve two different purposes.
Copyright is meant to foster creativity and to provide incentives to create original works of authorship for the benefit of the public. Copyright protects original works such as photos, videos, films and music. It's also important to note that, in the US, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) only applies to copyrights and doesn't apply to trademarks.
Trademark law is meant to prevent consumer harm because it prohibits someone other than the rights owner from using a trademark (for example, a brand's logo) in a way that may confuse consumers. Trademark law protects brand names, slogans, logos or other symbols that help consumers identify the source of goods or services.
We regularly provide the rights owner's name, your email, and the details of your report to the person who posted the content you are reporting. In the case that you are an authorized representative submitting a report, we provide the name of the organization or client that owns the right in question. For this reason, you may wish to provide a valid generic business or professional email.
If possible, before you submit a copyright report to us, you may want to send a message to the Horizon Worlds user you believe may be infringing your copyright. You may be able to resolve the issue without contacting Horizon Worlds.

How Meta processes United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) counter-notifications
Meta complies with the notice-and-takedown procedures set out in section 512(c) of the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), which applies to content reported and removed for violating US copyrights.
If your content is removed under the DMCA, you'll receive instructions about how to file a counter-notification in the message that we send you. You should only submit a counter-notification if the content was removed because of a mistake or misidentification. Please note that if your content was removed for reasons unrelated to a copyright report, you may not receive a response from us.
When we receive a valid DMCA counter-notification, we forward it to the party that reported the content. The information that they receive includes your contact information, which they can use to contact you.
If we provide your counter-notification to the party that reported the content, and they don't notify us that they have filed a court action seeking an order to keep the content down, we will restore or cease disabling eligible content under the DMCA. This process can take up to 14 working days. Please note that in rare instances, we may not be able to restore content due to technical limitations. If this happens, we'll send you an update letting you know that you may repost the content at your discretion.
Content that is restored based on a valid DMCA counter-notification will not be counted against you under our repeat infringer policy.
The fastest and easiest way to send a DMCA report of copyright infringement to our designated agent is to contact Meta.
