1. Introduction
1by0 ("1by0", "we", "our", or "us") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects all users, sellers, and buyers to do the same.
1by0 operates as an online marketplace that allows independent sellers to upload, market, and distribute digital products and assets. Sellers are solely responsible for ensuring that the content they upload, distribute, or sell does not infringe upon any third-party intellectual property rights.
In accordance with applicable copyright laws, including the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"), 1by0 has adopted the following policy for addressing copyright infringement claims.

Their content does not infringe upon any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, publicity right, or other proprietary right of any third party.
