AMANA, operated by Denhill International LLC, respects intellectual property rights and expects all users of the AMANAplatform to do the same. This Intellectual Property Policy (“IP Policy”) explains:

• What AMANA owns;
• What users own;
• The license users grant AMANA when submitting content;
• Rules around trademarks and branding;
• How to report copyright or IP infringement; and
• AMANA’s repeat infringer policy.

This IP Policy is incorporated by reference into AMANA’s Terms of Service. Capitalised terms not defined here have the meanings given in the Terms of Service.

AMANA and its licensors own all rights, title, and interest in and to the AMANA platform and all associated intellectual property. This includes, without limitation:

Users have no rights in AMANA’s intellectual property except as expressly granted in these policies. Accessing or using the AMANA platform does not transfer any ownership of AMANA’s IP to any user.

Users retain all ownership rights to the content they create and post on AMANA(“User Content”), including posts, photos, company descriptions, videos, documents, and any other materials submitted by users to the platform.

AMANA does not claim ownership of User Content. Your content remains yours. However, by submitting User Content to the platform, you grant AMANA the limited license described in Section 4 below, which is necessary for AMANA to operate and provide the platform.

By submitting User Content to the AMANA platform, you grant AMANA a:

• Worldwide;
• Non-exclusive;
• Royalty-free;
• Sublicensable; and
• Transferable

licence to use, host, store, reproduce, modify (for formatting and display purposes only), display, distribute, and transmit your User Content, solely for the purposes of operating, improving, promoting, and providing the AMANA platform and its features.

By submitting User Content to the AMANA platform, you represent and warrant that:

1. You own or have all necessary rights, licences, consents, and permissions to submit the content and to grant the licence described in Section 4;
2. Your User Content does not infringe any third-party copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, or other intellectual property right;
3. Your User Content does not violate any applicable law, regulation, or right of any person (including rights of privacy and publicity);
4. You have obtained all necessary consents from third parties for any content that includes or depicts other people, including photos, testimonials, or identifying information; and
5. Your submission of the content does not violate any confidentiality obligation or contractual restriction owed to any third party, including any former employer, business partner, or client.

AMANA reserves the right to remove any User Content that it reasonably believes violates these representations, without prior notice.

AMANA’s name, logo, and branding are protected trademarks of Denhill International LLC. The following uses are prohibited without AMANA’s prior written permission:

Users may not use AMANA’s platform content, data, or user information in the following ways:

Violation of these prohibitions may result in immediate account termination, legal action, or both.

If you believe that content on AMANA infringes your copyright, please submit a written notice to contact@amana-uae.com with the subject line “Copyright Infringement Notice.”

Your notice must include all of the following:

1. Your identity: Your full name, email address, and postal address.
2. Description of the work: A description of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed, including, where possible, a URL or copy of the original work.
3. Location of infringing content: A specific description of the allegedly infringing content on AMANA, including its URL or the specific location on the platform where the content appears.
4. Good-faith statement: A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or applicable law.
5. Accuracy statement: A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of applicable law, that you are the copyright owner or are authorised to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
6. Signature: Your electronic or physical signature.

Upon receipt of a complete and valid notice, AMANA will review the claim and take appropriate action, which may include removing or disabling access to the allegedly infringing content, pending investigation.

Submitting a false copyright infringement notice may expose you to legal liability. AMANA reserves the right to forward infringement notices to the affected user.

If your content was removed following a copyright infringement notice and you believe the removal was in error or the result of misidentification, you may submit a counter-notice to contact@amana-uae.com with the subject line “Copyright Counter-Notice.”

Your counter-notice must include:

1. Your identity: Your full name, email address, and postal address.
2. Identification of removed content: A description of the content that was removed and the location where it previously appeared on AMANA.
3. Good-faith statement: A statement under penalty of applicable law that you have a good-faith belief the content was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Consent to jurisdiction: Your consent to the jurisdiction of competent courts in the UAE for the purpose of resolving any dispute with the copyright claimant.
5. Signature: Your electronic or physical signature.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notice, AMANA may, at its discretion and subject to applicable law, restore the removed content. AMANA’s decision to restore or not restore content does not constitute a legal determination regarding the validity of any copyright claim.

To report trademark infringement on the AMANA platform, email contact@amana-uae.com with the subject line “Trademark Infringement Notice.”

Your notice should include:

• Details of your trademark, including the mark, registration number (if any), and the goods or services it covers;
• Evidence of your ownership or authorised use of the trademark;
• A description of the allegedly infringing use on the AMANAplatform, including the URL or location of the content; and
• Your full name, contact email, and postal address.

AMANA will review trademark infringement notices and take appropriate action, which may include removing infringing content or suspending accounts engaged in trademark infringement.

AMANA has a policy of terminating the accounts of users who are found to be repeat infringers of intellectual property rights.

A user who repeatedly submits content that infringes third-party intellectual property rights — after receiving notice of infringement and having infringing content removed — may have their account permanently terminated at AMANA’s discretion, without refund of any subscription fees.

AMANA may also terminate accounts for a single serious infringement if the circumstances warrant immediate action. AMANA’s termination decisions under this policy are final.

AMANA is incorporated and operated in the United Arab Emirates, and UAE law governs this IP Policy. Notwithstanding this, AMANAfollows a process substantially similar to the notice-and-takedown procedure established under the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) for the benefit of users who may be subject to DMCA jurisdiction.

The procedures described in Sections 8 and 9 above are designed to be consistent with both UAE IP law and DMCA-equivalent standards. Users in DMCA jurisdictions who comply with those procedures will generally be treated as having submitted a DMCA-compliant notice or counter-notice for operational purposes.

⚠️ Applicability of DMCA and equivalent UAE IP law provisions subject to local legal review. The procedures described here do not constitute legal advice and may be updated following legal review.

AMANA may display third-party content, links to external websites, or content provided by third-party services on the platform. AMANA does not claim ownership of such third-party content and is not responsible for any third-party IP rights or any violations of IP rights by third parties.

If you believe that third-party content displayed on AMANAinfringes your intellectual property rights, please follow the reporting process described in Sections 8 or 10 above, as applicable.

Nothing in these policies, and nothing on or in the AMANAplatform, constitutes or shall be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any licence or right to use any of AMANA’s intellectual property — including its trademarks, trade names, logos, patents, copyrights, or proprietary information — except as expressly stated in these policies or in a separate written agreement signed by an authorised representative of Denhill International LLC.

All rights not expressly granted herein are reserved by AMANA and Denhill International LLC.

This Intellectual Property Policy is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United Arab Emirates. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with this policy shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the UAE, without prejudice to AMANA’s right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any competent jurisdiction.

⚠️ Applicable IP law provisions and enforcement jurisdiction are subject to local legal review. Users in other jurisdictions may have additional rights under local law.
