1. Copyright Infringement and Our Commitment

Copyright laws protect original works, including text, images, videos, and other digital content. At PrintEducation.com.ng, we ensure that all published content is either original, licensed, or used with proper permission. We do not support plagiarism, unauthorized copying, or any form of copyright violation.

However, since we accept user-generated content, guest posts, and external contributions, some materials might unintentionally infringe on copyrights. If you notice any content that belongs to you and has been used without authorization, kindly report it following the DMCA takedown procedure below.

  • Investigate the reported content to verify the claim.
  • Remove or disable access to the infringing content if the complaint is valid.
  • Notify the content creator or user responsible for the disputed content.

We usually process complaints within a reasonable timeframe, but if there are complications, we may require additional time for review.
