B. Notice and procedure for making claims of copyright or other intellectual
property infringements.

(a) Anghami respects the intellectual property of others and takes the
protection of copyrights and all other intellectual property very seriously, and
we ask our users to do the same. Infringing activity will not be tolerated on or
through the Site or the Anghami Service.

(b) Anghami’s intellectual property policy is to (1) remove material that
Anghami believes in good faith, upon notice from an intellectual property owner
or their agent, is infringing the intellectual property of a third party by
being made available through the Site, and (2) remove any Products or
Submissions posted to the Site by “repeat infringers.” Anghami considers a
“repeat infringer” to be any user that has uploaded Products or Submissions to
the Service and for whom Anghami has received more than two takedown notices
compliant with the provisions of 17 U.S.C. § 512(c) with respect to such
Products or Submissions. Anghami has discretion, however, to terminate the
account of any user after receipt of a single notification of claimed
infringement or upon Anghami’ s own determination.

(c) Procedure for Reporting Claimed Infringement. If you believe that any
Productions or Submissions made available on or through the Site or the Anghami
Service have been used or exploited in a manner that infringes an intellectual
property right you own or control, then please promptly send a “Notification of
Claimed Infringement” containing the following information to the Designated
Agent identified below. Your communication must include substantially the
following:

 * A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of
   the owner of the work(s) that has/have been allegedly infringed;
 * Identification of works or materials being infringed, or, if multiple works
   are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works;
 * Identification of the specific material that is claimed to be infringing or
   to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access
   to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit
   Anghami to locate the material;
 * Information reasonably sufficient to permit Anghami to contact you, such as
   an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address
   at which you may be contacted;
 * A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in
   the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent,
   or the law; and
 * A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under
   penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of
   an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

You should consult with your own lawyer and/or see 17 U.S.C. § 512 to confirm
your obligations to provide a valid notice of claimed infringement.

(d) Designated Agent Contact Information. Anghami’s Designated Agent for notices
of claimed infringement can be contacted at:

Via E-mail : legal@anghami.com

Via U.S. Mail: Zardman building, 5th floor, Jal el Dib, Lebanon

(e) Counter Notification. If you receive a notification from Anghami that
material made available by you on or through the Site or the Anghami Service has
been the subject of a Notification of Claimed Infringement, then you will have
the right to provide Anghami with what is called a “Counter Notification.” To be
effective, a Counter Notification must be in writing, provided Anghami’ s
Designated Agent through one of the methods identified in Section B(d) of this
TOS, and include substantially the following information:

 * A physical or electronic signature of the subscriber;
 * Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has
   been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was
   removed or access to it was disabled;
 * A statement under penalty of perjury that the subscriber has a good faith
   belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or
   misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled;
 * The subscriber’s name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that
   the subscriber consents to the jurisdiction of Federal District Court for the
   judicial district in which the address is located, or if the subscriber’s
   address is outside of the United States, Civil Courts in Beirut / Lebanon,
   and that the subscriber will accept service of process from the person who
   provided notification under Section B(c) of this TOS above or an agent of
   such person.

A party submitting a Counter Notification should consult a lawyer or see 17
U.S.C. § 512 to confirm the party’s obligations to provide a valid counter
notification under the Copyright Act.

(f) False Notifications of Claimed Infringement or Counter Notifications. The
Copyright Act provides that:

Any person who knowingly materially misrepresents under [Section 512 of the
Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512)] (1) that material or activity is infringing, or
(2) that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or
misidentification, shall be liable for any damages, including costs and
attorneys’ fees, incurred by the alleged infringer, by any copyright owner or
copyright owner’s authorized licensee, or by a service provider, who is injured
by such misrepresentation, as the result of Anghami relying upon such
misrepresentation in removing or disabling access to the material or activity
claimed to be infringing, or in replacing the removed material or ceasing to
disable access to it.

17 U.S.C. § 512(f). Anghami reserves the right to seek damages from any party
that submits a notification of claimed infringement or counter notification in
violation of the law. For the avoidance of doubt, only notices submitted under
the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and the procedures set forth in this
Section C should be sent to the Designated Agent at the e-mail or postal address
set forth above. Any other comments, compliments, complaints or suggestions
about Anghami, the operation of the Site or the Anghami Service or any other
matter should be sent to info@anghami.com.
