7. Third-Party Content and Links

Our platform may contain links to third-party websites or resources and may incorporate third-party content under appropriate licenses.

Upon enrollment, students receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access course materials for the duration of their enrollment and any applicable access period thereafter. This license is for personal educational use only and does not convey any ownership rights.

Unless explicitly authorized in writing, no content from the platform may be used for commercial purposes, including but not limited to resale, incorporation into commercial products or services, or use in business training programs.

9. Fair Use and Educational Exceptions

While Drift Kelmas respects legitimate fair use and educational exceptions to copyright law, users should not assume that any use qualifies as fair use. We encourage users to seek appropriate permissions when uncertain and to provide proper attribution when using content under applicable exceptions.

10. Software and Technology

The software, code, and technology underlying the Drift Kelmas platform are proprietary and protected by intellectual property laws. Reverse engineering, decompiling, or attempting to extract source code is strictly prohibited.

Drift Kelmas maintains a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, accounts of users who are repeat infringers of intellectual property rights. We may also terminate accounts of users who are the subject of repeated infringement allegations, whether or not such allegations are ultimately proven.

14. International Considerations

Intellectual property laws vary by jurisdiction. While Drift Kelmas operates internationally, we expect all users to comply with applicable intellectual property laws in their respective locations. When conflicts arise between jurisdictions, we will make reasonable efforts to balance competing legal requirements.

15. Attribution Requirements

When content is used with permission or under applicable licenses requiring attribution, proper credit must be given in the manner specified by the content owner. Failure to provide required attribution may constitute a violation of this policy.

16. Educational Fair Dealing

We recognize that educational contexts may permit certain uses of copyrighted material under fair dealing or fair use principles. However, users are responsible for ensuring their use qualifies under applicable legal standards and should consult legal counsel when uncertain.

17. Policy Updates and Modifications

Drift Kelmas reserves the right to modify this Intellectual Property Policy at any time. Material changes will be communicated to users through platform notifications or email. Continued use of the platform following policy updates constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
