Lotpath respects the intellectual property rights of others and has in place certain legally mandated procedures regarding allegations of copyright infringement occurring on the website or with the Services. Lotpath has adopted a policy that provides for the immediate suspension and/or termination of any website or Services user who is found to have infringed on the rights of Lotpath or of a third party, or otherwise violated any intellectual property laws or regulations. Lotpath’s policy is to investigate any allegations of copyright infringement brought to its attention.
