10. User Content
​
10.1. User Content. User may upload text, photos, and other information that represents User’s content to the Adam platform. User is responsible for its User content. By uploading User content to the Adam platform, User represents that it is authorized to do so, and that the uploading, posting or subsequent use of the content will not violate any third party rights or laws. User shall not upload, transmit or otherwise provide to or through the Adam platform any information or material that is unsolicited advertising or content (i.e. "spam"), illegal, or contains or activates any malicious code (software, hardware or other technology, including malware, the purpose or effect of which is to allow unauthorized access to or disrupt or otherwise damage a computer, software, hardware or network; or to prevent any other Professional or User from accessing or using the Adam Services).
​
10.2. Adam’s approach to User Content. Adam takes a passive and neutral approach to User content. This means that Adam generally does not monitor it or actively search for facts or circumstances that would indicate that the User content is illegal. On its own initiative, Adam may conduct voluntary investigations or take other measures to detect, identify, remove or disable access to illegal content. Adam may also take necessary measures to ensure compliance with legal requirements, contractual Terms and Conditions, and orders of administrative authorities. However, Adam is not responsible for the illegality, accuracy or truthfulness of User content. Adam does not use special tools or algorithm-based decision-making to moderate content.
​
10.3. Notification mechanism. Adam shall receive all notifications containing information about the occurrence of User content within the Adam platform that the notifier (e.g., User) considers illegal. The notifier may send notifications to Adam at the email address adam@myadam.pro. Adam allows the notification to contain at least the following information:
(a) a sufficiently substantiated explanation of why the notifier claims that the content in question is illegal,
(b) an unambiguous indication of the exact electronic location of the content, such as the exact URL, and, if necessary, additional information to identify the illegal content depending on its type,
(c) the name or title of the person making the notification and their email address, except where you are notifying content that you consider to constitute an offence referred to in Articles 3 to 7 of Directive 2011/93/EU,
(d) a statement confirming that the person or entity making the notification believes in good faith that the information and allegations contained in the notification are accurate and complete.
​

If the notice contains electronic contact information for the person submitting the notice, Adam shall promptly send the notifier an acknowledgement of receipt of the notice. Adam shall also inform the notifier without undue delay of its decision with respect to the information to which the notification relates and provide the notifier with information about the remedies available to it in connection with that decision. If Adam becomes aware of unlawful activity, illegal content or content that is incompatible with the Terms and Conditions, it may take measures to remove it or to prevent access to it. Alternatively, Adam may impose restrictions on the User consisting in suspension or termination of the provision of the Adam Services to such User or suspension or termination of the User 's account. If Adam is aware of the relevant electronic contact details and if it does not involve misleading commercial content in large volumes, it shall provide all affected Users with a clear and specific justification for such restriction. However, if Adam assesses the content as compliant with the law and the Terms and Conditions, it may also decide not to take action against the content.
​
10.5. Protection against abuse. If the User frequently provides apparently illegal content, Adam may suspend the provision of Adam Services and access to the User’s account for a reasonable period of time and after issuing a prior notice. In addition, if a notifier frequently submits patently unwarranted notices or complaints, Adam may suspend notifier’s handling of notices and complaints after issuing prior notice. In making a decision in such cases, Adam shall take into account the number of items of manifestly unlawful content or manifestly unfounded notifications or complaints submitted in a particular period, their proportion in relation to the total number of information or notifications, the severity of the misuse, the nature of the unlawful content, the consequences of such misuse and the intention of the recipient of the service, person, entity or complainant, if it can be inferred.
