library_booksWhat is intellectual property?

Intellectual property is the foundation of innovation and a key driver of competitive advantage—empowering users, creators, and visionaries worldwide. It protects original ideas, commercial identities, and technological advancements that fuel progress and creativity.

This intellectual property policy ensures that creators and users have a trusted digital ecosystem that protects both registered and unregistered rights.

Intellectual property includes, but is not limited to:

• Copyrights

  :
  Original literary, artistic, musical, audiovisual, and software-based works, including written content, images, videos, designs, and source code.

• Trademarks

  :
  Words, symbols, logos, brand names, slogans, and other identifiers that distinguish one entity's products or services from another's.

• Patents

  :
  Innovative processes, inventions, and technical solutions that meet legal criteria for patent protection.

• Design rights

  :
  The unique appearance, shape, configuration, or ornamentation of products, whether industrially applied or commercially significant.

• Trade secrets and know-how

  :
  Confidential proprietary information, formulas, processes, or methods that provide a competitive advantage.

• Moral rights

  :
  The right of creators to be credited for their work and to object to modifications that could harm their reputation.

Intellectual property rights exist within multiple legal frameworks. While registered rights—such as trademarks, patents, and registered designs—require official filings to secure exclusive protections, unregistered rights—such as common-law trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets—are inherently protected upon creation or use.

By using Trepup, you agree to respect and uphold your own intellectual property rights as well as those of other users and third parties. Any infringement—intentional or unintentional—may result in content removal, account suspension, legal action, or enforcement measures in accordance with this intellectual property policy and applicable laws.

library_booksCopyrights

Copyright protects original works of authorship, granting creators exclusive rights while fostering an ecosystem where innovation, expression, and commerce can thrive. This intellectual property policy ensures that all users respect copyright protections, comply with global legal standards, and avoid infringement risks when sharing, selling, or using copyrighted content on Trepup.

What is copyright?

Copyright protects original works of authorship, including:

• Literary works

  :
  Books, articles, blogs, and written materials.

• Artistic works

  :
  Paintings, illustrations, photographs, and sculptures.

• Musical compositions

  :
  Sheet music, sound recordings, and lyrics.

• Audiovisual content

  :
  Films, animations, videos, and broadcasts.

• Software and source code

  :
  Proprietary code, applications, and digital programs.

Copyright protection applies automatically upon creation, meaning that a work does not require registration to be protected under most legal frameworks. However, formal registration with a copyright office may provide additional legal benefits, such as statutory damages and proof of ownership in infringement cases.

Who owns copyright?

Ownership of a copyrighted work depends on who created it and under what conditions it was created. The following categories define how copyright ownership is determined:

• Individual creators

  :
  The author or artist automatically owns the copyright unless they transfer rights to another party through a written agreement.

• Employees

  :
  In many jurisdictions, works created by employees as part of their job are owned by the employer under "work made for hire" doctrines.

• Contracted creators

  :
  Freelancers, consultants, and commissioned artists generally retain copyright unless a contract explicitly assigns rights to the client.

• Licensees

  :
  Users who obtain permission to use copyrighted material must comply with the terms of the license, including any jurisdictional restrictions.

If multiple people contribute to a work, joint ownership may apply, granting all contributors shared rights. Ownership can also be transferred or sold through assignments and licensing agreements, which must be in writing to be enforceable. Users should note that copyright laws and transfer requirements vary by jurisdiction. In some jurisdictions, copyright also includes moral rights, which protect a creator's right to attribution and integrity of their work. Regardless of ownership status, all users must comply with copyright law when sharing or selling content on Trepup.

Usage guidelines on Trepup

Users must ensure that any content they upload, share, or sell on Trepup complies with copyright law. The following principles apply:

• You may post content that you created or have explicit permission to use.
• You must not upload copyrighted material without authorization, unless its use qualifies as fair use, falls under an open license, or is in the public domain.
• Commercial use of copyrighted content (such as images, music, or video clips) requires the necessary rights or licenses.
• Attribution does not override copyright restrictions—crediting the creator does not give you permission to use their work.

Users should also be aware that derivative works (such as adaptations, remixes, or modifications of existing copyrighted material) may require permission from the original copyright holder.

Infringement risks and liability

Copyright infringement occurs when someone uses copyrighted content without permission in a way that violates the rights of the copyright holder. Examples include:

• Copying or distributing protected content without a license.
• Using copyrighted music or video clips in posts, listings, or advertisements without proper authorization.
• Selling or profiting from another user's copyrighted material without consent.
• Replicating software or proprietary code without approval from the rights holder.

Trepup enforces copyright compliance under applicable legal frameworks, including the DMCA, European Union Copyright Directive (EUCD), and the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works.

If Trepup determines that a user has violated copyright law, enforcement actions may include:

• Removing the infringing content.
• Suspending or terminating the user's Trepup Account.
• Notifying the copyright holder of the violation.
• Assisting in legal enforcement if required by law.

Users are responsible for ensuring they have the legal right to use any content they upload. If you are uncertain whether your content infringes copyright, seek legal advice before posting. Ignorance of copyright law does not exempt users from liability.

library_booksTrademarks

Trademarks play a critical role in commerce, distinguishing products and services while ensuring trust in the marketplace and among partners. This intellectual property policy defines how trademarks are protected, when they can be used, and the consequences of unauthorized or misleading usage on Trepup.

What is a trademark?

A trademark is any distinctive sign—such as a name, logo, symbol, or slogan—that identifies and differentiates the products or services of one entity from another. Trademarks may include:

• Words and brand names: Organization names, product names, service names, or slogans.
• Logos and symbols: Unique graphical representations of a brand.
• Colors and packaging: Distinctive color schemes, packaging designs, or trade dress.
• Product shapes and designs: The unique shape of a product or container.
• Sounds and motion marks: Signature sounds, jingles, or animated branding elements.

A valid trademark must be distinctive and not generic—it should uniquely identify an organization, product, or service rather than describe general characteristics of an industry or sector.

Trademark ownership and protection

Owning a registered trademark grants exclusive rights to use the mark in commerce and prevent unauthorized use. However, trademark rights are territorial, meaning that protection applies only in the jurisdictions where the mark is registered.

Trademark ownership and protection include the following key principles:

• Registered trademarks

  :
  Owners gain exclusive rights in the jurisdictions where the trademark is officially registered.

• Unregistered trademarks

  :
  Some common law protections may apply based on use, but enforcement is limited.

• International trademarks

  :
  Companies seeking global protection must register their marks in multiple jurisdictions (e.g., through the Madrid System under WIPO).

• Duration of protection

  :
  Trademarks require renewals at set intervals to maintain legal protection.

• Enforcement

  :
  Owners are responsible for monitoring and enforcing their trademark rights against infringement.

Trepup respects valid trademark registrations and expects users to honor the exclusive rights of trademark owners.

Legitimate use cases for trademarks

Users may reference a trademark on Trepup in certain situations where it does not mislead others or violate the rights of the trademark owner. Examples of permitted use include:

• Reselling authentic goods

  :
  If a user sells a genuine product, they may use the corresponding trademarked name to identify it.

• Comparative advertising

  :
  Honest, non-deceptive comparisons between competing products are generally allowed.

• Descriptive use

  :
  A trademarked term may be used in its ordinary dictionary meaning rather than as a brand reference.

• Compatibility statements

  :
  Users may truthfully state that their product is compatible with or fits a trademarked product (e.g., "compatible with XYZ™").

• Editorial and informational use

  :
  Use of a trademark in news, commentary, or educational content is often allowed under fair use principles.

Even in these cases, the use must not create confusion about endorsement, affiliation, or sponsorship by the trademark owner.

Prohibited trademark uses on Trepup

Trademark infringement occurs when a user misuses a mark in a way that causes user confusion, unfairly benefits from brand recognition, or damages the trademark's reputation. The following actions are strictly prohibited:

• Selling counterfeit products

  :
  Listing or promoting fake or unauthorized replicas of trademarked products.

• Implying endorsement or affiliation

  :
  Using a trademark in a way that suggests approval, sponsorship, or a relationship with the owner without authorization.

• Trademark dilution

  :
  Using a famous trademark in a way that weakens or tarnishes its brand image.

• Domain name squatting

  :
  Registering or using domain names that misappropriate a brand's trademark.

• Using deceptively similar marks

  :
  Creating a confusingly similar logo, name, or slogan to impersonate a trademarked brand.

• Misleading advertising and branding

  :
  Using a trademark in an ad, listing, or branding element that falsely represents a product's origin or quality.

Trepup strictly prohibits these violations and enforces trademark protection under applicable laws, including the Madrid Protocol and WIPO's global trademark treaties.

If Trepup determines that a trademark has been misused or infringed, actions may include:

• Removing infringing content or product listings.
• Suspending or terminating the user's Trepup Account.
• Notifying the trademark owner of the violation.
• Assisting in legal enforcement where required.

Users should verify their rights to use any trademarked term or logo before listing, advertising, or branding content on Trepup. If uncertain, consulting a legal professional is strongly advised.

library_booksPatents

Patents drive technological progress by granting inventors exclusive rights to their innovations. Trepup is committed to fostering a marketplace where patented products and technologies are respected, properly licensed, and not misrepresented. This intellectual property policy ensures that users comply with global patent laws when listing, selling, or referencing patented products on Trepup.

What is a patent and how does it work?

A patent is a legally granted right that gives an inventor exclusive control over their invention for a specific period, typically 20 years from the filing date. Patents protect new, useful, and non-obvious innovations, ensuring that inventors can commercially benefit from their work while preventing unauthorized use.

Patents typically cover:

• Products and devices

  :
  New machinery, medical devices, or engineered products.

• Processes and methods

  :
  Manufacturing techniques, algorithms, or chemical processes.

• Software innovations

  :
  Patentable software functionalities (where applicable under jurisdictional law).

• Industrial designs

  :
  Functional aesthetic features tied to a patented invention.

A patent does not grant indefinite ownership—once its term expires, the invention enters the public domain, meaning anyone can use it without restrictions. However, expired patents may still have related rights, such as trademarks or trade secrets, which remain enforceable.

Patents are territorial, meaning they are only enforceable in the country or region where they are granted. Inventors seeking global protection must file in multiple jurisdictions, such as under:

• The

  Patent Cooperation Treaty

  (PCT):
  Allows applicants to seek protection in multiple countries with a single international application (administered by WIPO).

• National and regional patent offices

  :
  Including the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), European Patent Office (EPO), and Japan Patent Office (JPO).

Patent rights on Trepup

Users must ensure that any patented product or process they list, sell, or reference on Trepup complies with applicable patent laws.

Allowed patent-related activities on Trepup include:

• Selling patented products

  :
  Users may list and sell products that incorporate patented technology if they have the right to do so (e.g., as the patent holder or a licensed distributor).

• Licensing disclosures

  :
  If a product is sold under a patent license, users must clearly disclose licensing details where applicable.

• Fair references to patented technology

  :
  Users may reference patented features as long as they do not mislead buyers about patent ownership or licensing status.

Users must not:

• Sell patented products without authorization

  :
  Only patent holders, exclusive licensees, or authorized distributors may sell patented products.

• Claim a product is patented if it is not

  :
  Misrepresenting an item as patented or patent-pending when it is not officially registered is a violation of this intellectual property policy.

• Sell expired or invalid patents as exclusive

  :
  If a patent has expired or been invalidated, users cannot market the product as being under patent protection.

• Use patented processes without a license

  :
  If an invention involves a patented manufacturing or operational process, users must have the right to use that process before listing related products or services.

Patent disputes, including infringement claims, must be resolved through the appropriate patent offices or legal authorities. Users should ensure they have the legal right to list, sell, or reference patented products before taking any action on Trepup.

Prohibited actions on Trepup related to patents

To ensure compliance and prevent infringement, Trepup strictly prohibits the following:

• Patent piracy

  :
  Listing, selling, or manufacturing patented inventions without authorization from the patent holder.

• False patent claims

  :
  Advertising a product as 'patented' or 'patent-pending' without a valid and verifiable patent application on file with a recognized patent office.

• Deceptive marketing regarding patent rights

  :
  Misleading users by falsely stating patent exclusivity or suggesting a Trepup-approved patent endorsement.

• Circumventing patented technology

  :
  Selling "workarounds" specifically designed to avoid licensing fees while still infringing on patented innovation.

• Selling unauthorized replicas

  :
  Offering unauthorized reproductions of patented products (including modified copies) without approval from the rights holder.

If Trepup determines that a user is violating patent laws, actions may include:

• Removing the infringing product listing.
• Suspending or terminating the user's Trepup Account.
• Notifying the patent owner of the violation.
• Assisting in legal enforcement where required by law.

Users should verify their legal right to sell or reference patented products before listing them on Trepup. If uncertain, consulting a qualified patent attorney is recommended.

library_booksDesign rights

Design rights safeguard the appearance, shape, and visual identity of products, ensuring that creators and rights holders retain exclusive rights over their unique designs. Trepup is committed to respecting registered and unregistered design protections, preventing infringement, and fostering an environment where creativity and commerce thrive without exploitation.

What is a design and how does protection work?

A design refers to the visual and aesthetic aspects of a product, including its shape, configuration, surface patterns, ornamentation, and overall appearance. Unlike patents, which protect functionality, design rights protect the look and feel of a product.

Design protection may apply to:

• Product shapes and configurations

  :
  The distinctive contour or form of a product (e.g., a uniquely shaped bottle or phone case).

• Surface designs and ornamentation

  :
  Patterns, textures, or graphical embellishments applied to products.

• Typography and graphical user interfaces (GUI)

  :
  Icon sets, layouts, and font designs used in digital and printed media.

• Fashion and industrial designs

  :
  Apparel, accessories, and furniture with unique styling.

How design rights work

Registered designs grant exclusive rights for a fixed period (e.g., up to 25 years in some jurisdictions) and prevent unauthorized copying or imitation. Registration is typically handled by:

• EUIPO

  :
  Protects designs across all European Union (EU) member states.

• USPTO

  :
  Issues design patents (valid for 15 years from grant).

• WIPO

  :
  Allows creators to register internationally with multiple countries in one application.

Unregistered designs may still receive limited protection, depending on jurisdiction. In regions that recognize unregistered design rights, such as the EU and United Kingdom (UK), protection typically lasts for a shorter period and requires proof of originality and independent creation.

Legal obligations for users on Trepup

Users listing or selling products on Trepup must ensure they are not infringing on protected designs.

Users must:

• Verify that they have the right to sell

  :
  Products featuring a registered design should only be listed by the rights holder, a licensed distributor, or an authorized seller.

• Avoid unauthorized use of protected designs

  :
  Users cannot apply protected designs to new products without permission.

• Clearly disclose design licensing

  :
  If a product is sold under a licensed design agreement, users must include details in their listing.

Users must not:

• Sell replicas or unauthorized copies

  :
  Unauthorized reproductions of registered or protected designs are strictly prohibited.

• Use misleading product images

  :
  Listings must accurately depict the product and must not falsely suggest it features a legally protected design.

• Claim ownership of a design they do not own

  :
  Misrepresenting an unprotected design as a registered design is a violation of this intellectual property policy.

Trepup reserves the right to remove infringing listings, suspend violators, and report repeat offenders to legal authorities.

Prohibited actions on Trepup related to designs

To protect originality and maintain marketplace integrity, Trepup strictly prohibits the following:

• Unauthorized use of registered designs

  :
  Selling, promoting, or distributing products that incorporate a registered design without the rights holder's permission.

• Counterfeit or imitation designs

  :
  Offering replicas or unauthorized copies of design-protected products.

• False representation of design protection

  :
  Claiming a design is registered or legally protected when it is not, or misrepresenting an unregistered design as having exclusive rights.

• Circumventing design protections

  :
  Slightly modifying a registered design to evade enforcement while still maintaining its recognizable identity.

• Misleading branding related to design rights

  :
  Suggesting Trepup endorses or certifies a design's exclusivity when no such certification exists.

If Trepup determines that a user has violated design rights, actions may include:

• Removing infringing product listings.
• Suspending or terminating the user's Trepup Account.
• Notifying the design rights holder of the violation.
• Assisting in legal enforcement where required.

Users should verify their legal right to sell, reproduce, or modify a design-protected product before listing it on Trepup. If uncertain, consulting a qualified intellectual property attorney is strongly recommended.

library_booksTrade secrets and know-how

Trade secrets safeguard confidential information that provides a competitive advantage. Trepup is committed to protecting both its own trade secrets and those of its users, ensuring that proprietary knowledge—including operational methods, strategic plans, and technical processes—remains secure from misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure.

Users engaging with Trepup's platform must adhere to strict confidentiality obligations, ensuring that they do not misuse, leak, or exploit trade secrets belonging to Trepup or other users.

What constitutes a trade secret?

A trade secret is any confidential information that derives value from being kept secret. It includes proprietary knowledge that gives Trepup and its users a competitive advantage.

Trepup's proprietary information includes:

Unlike patents, trade secrets remain protected indefinitely as long as they are not disclosed or independently discovered.

Legal protection of trade secrets

Trepup and its users must actively protect their trade secrets by implementing security and access controls.

Trepup's trade secret protection measures Include:

• Restricted internal access

  :
  Only authorized personnel can access sensitive Trepup data.

• Non-disclosure agreements (NDAs)

  :
  Employees, contractors, and third parties must sign legally binding NDAs to prevent leaks.

• Cybersecurity and encryption

  :
  Proprietary data is stored under strict security protocols to prevent breaches.

Users must also take reasonable steps to protect their own trade secrets, including:

• Ensuring confidential data is not publicly accessible on Trepup.
• Using contractual protections (e.g., NDAs) when sharing sensitive or proprietary information.
• Avoiding disclosure of proprietary manufacturing, sourcing, or pricing data in listings or communications.

User obligations regarding trade secrets

Users must not, under any circumstances:

• Misappropriate, copy, or disclose Trepup's or another user's trade secrets.
• Reverse-engineer, analyze, or decompile proprietary Trepup technology, code, or software.
• Access or attempt to extract another user's confidential data (e.g., scraping non-public pricing information, supplier details, or operational strategies).
• Use stolen trade secrets to gain a commercial advantage, including selling, licensing, or otherwise exploiting stolen proprietary information.
• Retain confidential materials after account suspension or contract termination.

Users are solely responsible for safeguarding their trade secrets. Unauthorized disclosure or misappropriation may result in legal consequences beyond Trepup's enforcement actions.

Enforcement actions for trade secret misappropriation

If Trepup determines that a user has violated Trepup's or another user's trade secrets, actions may include:

• Immediate account suspension

  :
  Trepup may restrict, suspend, or permanently disable a user's access.

• Legal action for trade secret misappropriation

  :
  Trepup may pursue civil and criminal legal claims under applicable trade secret protection laws.

• Notification to relevant authorities

  :
  Trepup may report unauthorized access or breaches to cybersecurity and regulatory bodies.

• Damages for financial losses

  :
  If a user profits from misappropriated trade secrets, Trepup or the affected party may seek legal remedies.

Users must exercise due diligence when handling proprietary information—violations of trade secret protections can result in serious legal consequences, including financial penalties and criminal liability.

library_booksUser responsibilities

Trepup empowers users to create, share, and sell content while respecting intellectual property laws. Users are responsible for ensuring their activities comply with this intellectual property policy and applicable laws. Failure to comply may result in content removal, account suspension, or legal action.

Users must conduct due diligence before uploading, selling, or sharing content. This includes ensuring they own the intellectual property or have explicit authorization to use it, researching whether copyrights, trademarks, patents, or design rights apply, and confirming they have legal permission for any third-party intellectual property (e.g., licensed content, resale rights, fair use).

Users must not upload or sell content they do not own or lack authorization for, infringe on copyrights, trademarks, or patents, or list products with misleading descriptions that imply false endorsement.

library_booksIntellectual property infringement

Trepup enforces intellectual property rights to safeguard users, rights holders, and platform integrity. Users must confirm they have the legal right to share, sell, or reference intellectual property before listing content.

Trepup handles intellectual property violations through content moderation, user reports, and automated detection systems. If a violation is confirmed, Trepup may remove infringing content, restrict or suspend accounts, and take legal action when required.

Rights holders can report violations by submitting proof of ownership, specific details of the infringement, and supporting evidence. Trepup reviews reports promptly and may take enforcement action, including content removal or account restrictions. False or misleading reports may result in penalties.

Users who believe their content was mistakenly removed may file a counter-notice explaining why the removal was incorrect, along with supporting evidence. Trepup evaluates counter-notices and may reinstate content if justified. Submitting a false counter-notice may lead to penalties.

Trepup does not mediate private disputes over intellectual property. Users are responsible for verifying their rights before listing, selling, or sharing content. If disputes arise, parties must resolve them through legal channels.
