1. About This Policy

This Intellectual Property Policy describes how we handle claims of intellectual property infringement on EWN’s websites, applications and services (the “EWN Services“).

EWN respects intellectual property rights and expects its users to do the same. In using the EWN Services, users must comply with All EWN Legal Policies, Terms & Conditions, and all other policies as accessed via the links, above, as well as all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and respect the intellectual property, privacy, and other rights of third parties.

2. Copyright

Copyright is a legal right that seeks to protect original works of authorship (e.g., music, artwork, books). The owner of a copyright has the exclusive right to make certain uses of a creative work including copying, distributing, and displaying that work. Generally, copyright protects original expression; it does not protect facts and ideas. Copyright also generally doesn’t protect things such as names, titles and slogans; however, another legal right called a trademark may apply (see below).

There are some exceptions to copyright. For example, in certain countries, a non-rights holder may be allowed to use another’s copyright if that use is fair, such as for the purposes of review, critique, or parody.

If you are a copyright holder, or their agent, and you believe that any material available via the EWN Services infringes your copyrighted work, please use our Contact form to submit a notice of alleged copyright infringement. Alternatively, a notice of alleged copyright infringement may be sent to EWN’s designated copyright agent at the following address, below, with the following information:

Specific identification of each copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
A description of where the material believed to be infringing is located on the EWN Services or the EWN Websites, within any Podcast Episode (please be as detailed as possible and, if it’s an alleged image, graphic, or textual infraction, then please provide a URL to help us locate the material you are reporting; if it’s in an audio episode, file, program, then please indicate the Episode Title and/or Number, the Date it was published, and a Timestamp, especially, so we may locate it for review);
Contact information for the complaining party, such as a complete name, address, telephone number, and email address;
A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the work(s) in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law (such as fair use); and
A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, the complaining party is the owner of the right that is allegedly infringed, or agent for the owner.
A physical or electronic signature of the owner (or person authorized to act on behalf of the owner) of the copyright that is allegedly infringed; and
A statement that you understand that your contact information and/or notice will be provided to the alleged infringing party, and retained as long as required for legal purposes.
Without the above, we may not have sufficient information to process your claim.

EWN’s designated copyright agent can be reached as follows:

Enoch Was Not (EWN)

Attn: Legal Department, Copyright Agent

(ADDRESS TO BE ADDED)

When you submit a copyright claim, EWN may pass your name and email address to the allegedly infringing party, and retain your information as long as required for legal purposes. Please note, fraudulent reports or other misuse of this process may result in the termination of your account and/or legal consequences. You may wish to consult an attorney before submitting a claim.

EWN also has a policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of repeat infringers.

3. Trademark

A trademark is a word, slogan, symbol or design (e.g., brandname, logo) that distinguishes the products or services offered by one person, group, or company from another. Generally, trademark law seeks to prevent confusion among consumers about who provides or is affiliated with a product or service.

If you are a trademark holder, or their agent, and you believe content available on the EWN Services infringes your trademark rights, please Contact us or submit a notice of alleged trademark infringement via the mailing address, above. EWN may pass your name and email address to the allegedly infringing party, and retain your information as long as required for legal purposes. EWN also has a policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of repeat infringers.

4. How We Handle Claims

EWN reviews claims that are received through the channels identified above. When we receive a claim, we’ll evaluate it and take appropriate action, which may include removing the reported content or disabling access in a specific country (or countries). We may communicate with the claimant and the user or creator who provided the content regarding the action(s) we take, if we choose to not take action, or if we need further information to assess the claim.

Any content that infringes on another’s copyright or trademark may be removed. EWN also has a repeat infringer policy, meaning that a user or creator responsible for multiple violations may have their account terminated. If content is reinstated following an appeal or because a rights holder is retracting a claim, our repeat infringer policy will reflect that accordingly.

If you believe your content or account has been mistakenly actioned, or if you would like to request another review of EWN’s decision on your claim, you may have an opportunity to submit an appeal. Instructions concerning how to appeal are contained in the email correspondence we will send you regarding the claim.

This site may contain copyrighted material the use of which has not always been specifically authorized by the copyright owner. It is being made available in an effort to advance the education and understanding of Christian Faith and Bible Studies. It is believed that this constitutes a ‘fair use’ of any such copyrighted material as provided for in section 107 of the US Copyright Law. In accordance with Title 17 U.S.C. Section 107, the material on this site is distributed without profit to those who have expressed a prior interest in receiving the included information for research and educational purposes. If you wish to use copyrighted material from this site for purposes of your own that go beyond ‘fair use’, you must obtain permission from the copyright owner.

The material in this site is provided for educational and informational purposes only, and is not intended to be a substitute for a licensed, accredited professional’s consultation. Please consult your own appropriate pastor, advisor or counselor about the applicability of any opinions or recommendations with respect to your own faith, spiritual or religious beliefs, morals, values, ethics, and ideals. The information on this site does not constitute licensed professional ministerial, legal, medical, or technical advice.

Copyright Disclaimer under section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for \u201cfair use\u201d for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, education and research.

Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing.

Non-profit, educational or personal use tips the balance in favor of fair use.

Fair use is a doctrine in the United States copyright law that allows limited use of copyrighted material without requiring permission from the rights holders, such as for commentary, criticism, news reporting, research, teaching or scholarship. It provides for the legal, non-licensed citation or incorporation of copyrighted material in another author\u2019s work under a four-factor balancing test. The term \u201cfair use\u201d originated in the United States. A similar principle, fair dealing, exists in some other common law jurisdictions. Civil law jurisdictions have other limitations and exceptions to copyright.

One of the rights accorded to the owner of copyright is the right to reproduce or to authorize others to reproduce the work in copies or phonorecords. This right is subject to certain limitations found in sections 107 through 118 of the copyright law (title 17, U.S. Code). One of the more important limitations is the doctrine of \u201cfair use\u201d. The doctrine of fair use has developed through a substantial number of court decisions over the years and has been codified in section 107 of the copyright law.

Section 107 contains a list of the various purposes for which the reproduction of a particular work may be considered fair, such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Section 107 also sets out in four factors to be considered in determining whether or not a particular use is fair:

1) The purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes.
2) The nature of the copyrighted work.
3) The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole.
4) The effect of the use upon the potential market for, or value of, the copyrighted work.

The distinction between fair use and infringement may be unclear and not easily defined. There is no specific number of words, lines, or notes that may safely be taken without permission. Acknowledging the source of the copyrighted material does not substitute for obtaining permission.

The 1961 Report of the Register of Copyrights on the General Revision of the U.S. Copyright Law cites examples of activities that courts have regarded as fair use: \u201cquotation of excerpts in a review or criticism for purposes of illustration or comment; quotation of short passages in a scholarly or technical work, for illustration or clarification of the author\u2019s observations; use in a parody of some of the content of the work parodied; summary of an address or article, with brief quotations, in a news report; reproduction by a library of a portion of a work to replace part of a damaged copy; reproduction by a teacher or student of a small part of a work to illustrate a lesson; reproduction of a work in legislative or judicial proceedings or reports; incidental and fortuitous reproduction, in a newsreel or broadcast, of a work located in the scene of an event being reported.\u201d

Copyright protects the particular way an author has expressed himself. It does not extend to any ideas, systems, or factual information conveyed in the work.

The safest course is always to get permission from the copyright owner before using copyrighted material. The Copyright Office cannot give this permission.

When it is impracticable to obtain permission, use of copyrighted material should be avoided unless the doctrine of fair use would clearly apply to the situation. The Copyright Office can neither determine if a certain use may be considered fair nor advise on possible copyright violations. If there is any doubt, it is advisable to consult an attorney.

Acceptable user-generated content may not be illegal, obscene, defamatory, threatening, infringing of intellectual property rights, invasive of privacy or otherwise injurious or objectionable.

By posting or contributing content, you are granting EWN enochwasnot.com a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, and worldwide license to use your content in connection with the operation of the Services, including, without limitation, the license rights to copy, distribute, transmit, publicly display, publicly perform, reproduce, edit, translate and reformat your content, and/or to incorporate it into a collective work.

Enoch Was Not (EWN) website & podcast (the “Product“) are protected under the copyright laws of the United States and other countries throughout the world. Country of first publication: United States of America. Any unauthorized exhibition, distribution, or copying of these materials or any part thereof is a no-no.

The stories, names, characters, persons (real, living, dead, undead, obsessed or possessed), and incidents portrayed in the Bible are considered to be absolutely true and inerrant no matter how they are portrayed by Brother Scott or any other EWN guest, contributor, affiliate, or staff.

However, any and all other stories, names, characters, persons (real, living, dead, undead, woke, obsessed or posessed), incidents, and anecdotes, etc. that are portrayed on EWN are, usually, fictitious. No identification with actual persons (living or deceased), places, buildings, services, and products is intended or should be inferred unless Brother Scott emphatically states so.

The truth shall win out, regardless of the Evil & Corrupt Powers that Be (Satan & his Minions more popularly known as Cancel Culture, today) who are determined to cancel, shadow ban, squelch, squish, squash, smash, marginalize, push to the side, sue, castigate, castrate, besmirch, slander, libel, limit, eliminate, torture, imprison, or exterminate EWN’s efforts to illuminate the minds of the ignorant and lost. Wake up! Don’t go woke. Your soul is in peril.

No animals or angelic beings were harmed in the making of this Product.

Many people’s toes were stepped on and their safe-spaces were rattled, however.

The material and essence, at least, that you are about to read or hear is true. Some of the non-Biblical names have been changed to protect the innocent, but the guilty are the ones who should “fear.” Any resemblance to persons or other creatures, living or dead, might seem obvious to them and/or to those who know/knew them. Brother Scott may have taken certain, very small, liberties with embellishment for drama’s sake, as well as chronology, because that is his poetic license. Your subjective “facts” and personal perception should never get in the way of the actual truth.

No account, anecdote, story, person, entity, organization, political party, government, country, joke or attempt at humor, speculation, stray thought, or judgment used in EWN is intended to bring harm to said entities, but merely to highlight the sin nature of mankind as described by God in His Holy Word (the “Bible“) and that ALL have sinned and come short of the Glory of God!

Any resemblance to reality as you may perceive it about your life on this Earth is purely coincidental, but I can assure you that my version is as tame as a baby kitten when confronted with the very real Evil that walks this world. The curse of this Fallen World and its sin nature, including broken and un-Godlike social, cultural, political, and environmental pressures that produce all the upheaval, entropy, devolution of mankind, and chaos in and coming to this world are very real and you should focus on why it is so and where you may find salvation — Jesus Christ!

Anyone resembling the Lost & Damned are warned to get their hearts right with God and Repent! Turn away from this wicked world and all the sin it exudes through every pore of mankind. Believe in Jesus, now, to be saved!
