AntiqList should not be treated as an emergency response service.

Additional evidence is required;
There is a significant risk of fraud;

The seller may be given an opportunity to provide:
An explanation;
Proof of ownership;
Proof of authenticity;

[email protected]
The response should include:
The relevant listing;
The seller's explanation;
Supporting evidence;
Documentation establishing the seller's rights or authorization;
Any information relevant to the reported issue.
AntiqList may consider the response when determining what action, if any, is appropriate.

The original complaint was mistaken;
The user has demonstrated sufficient rights or authorization;
The content does not violate applicable law or AntiqList policy;

Removal of multiple listings;
Temporary suspension;
Permanent termination;

AntiqList may consider the severity and frequency of violations.
22. Relisting Removed Content
Users must not circumvent a takedown decision by repeatedly reposting substantially the same content.
This may include:
Creating duplicate listings;
Using another account to repost removed content;
Changing the title while retaining prohibited content;
Altering photographs to avoid detection;
Misrepresenting the identity of the item.
Such conduct may result in additional account restrictions.
23. False or Malicious Notices
Notices should be submitted in good faith.
Users must not knowingly submit false, misleading, fraudulent, or malicious complaints.
Examples include:
Claiming ownership of intellectual property that belongs to someone else;
Fabricating evidence;
Attempting to remove a legitimate competitor's listing;
Making knowingly false allegations;
Using the reporting system to harass another user.
AntiqList may restrict reporting privileges or take other appropriate action where abuse is identified.
24. Good-Faith Reporting
A person does not need to have absolute certainty before submitting a report.
A good-faith report may be submitted where the reporter reasonably believes that a listing or other content may violate applicable law or AntiqList policy.
Reporters should distinguish between:
Facts they know;
Evidence they possess;
Information received from another source;
Reasonable suspicions.
This helps AntiqList evaluate reports fairly.
25. Evidence
Evidence may include, depending on the matter:
Photographs;
Documents;
Ownership records;
Auction catalogs;
Purchase records;
Police reports;
Registration records;
Authentication reports;
Expert opinions;
Copyright registration information;
Trademark registration information;
Provenance records;
Government documentation;
URLs;
Screenshots;
Other credible information.
AntiqList may request additional evidence where necessary.
26. Privacy and Confidentiality

AntiqList may disclose information where reasonably necessary to:
Investigate a complaint;
Respond to a legal request;
Protect users;
Prevent fraud;
Protect the platform;
Comply with applicable law.
AntiqList does not guarantee absolute confidentiality where disclosure is legally required or reasonably necessary.
27. Legal and Government Notices
AntiqList may receive notices, orders, requests, subpoenas, court documents, regulatory communications, or other legal requests from competent authorities.
Where legally required, AntiqList may:
Preserve information;
Restrict content;
Remove content;
Disclose information;
Suspend accounts;
Take other legally required measures.
The specific response will depend on applicable law and the nature of the request.
28. Jurisdiction-Specific Procedures
Different jurisdictions may provide different notice-and-takedown mechanisms.
This Policy does not create a universal legal procedure applicable in every country.
Where a specific statutory procedure applies to AntiqList or a particular piece of content, AntiqList may process the notice according to the applicable legal requirements.
This includes, where applicable, procedures concerning copyright, trademark, consumer protection, cultural heritage, unlawful goods, or other regulated matters.
29. DMCA-Related Notices
Where a qualifying United States copyright matter is subject to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), AntiqList may process a properly submitted notice in accordance with applicable law.
A DMCA procedure does not automatically apply to every AntiqList listing, user, or complaint worldwide.
Rights holders should provide sufficient information for AntiqList to determine whether a particular statutory procedure applies.
30. Counter-Notices and Appeals
Where legally applicable, a user whose content has been removed may submit a counter-notice, appeal, or other response.
The response should explain:
Which content was removed;
Why the user believes the removal was incorrect;
The user's legal rights or authorization;
Any relevant supporting evidence.
AntiqList may review the response and determine whether further action is appropriate.
Nothing in this section limits any mandatory legal rights available to the user.
31. No Automatic Legal Determination
A takedown or restriction by AntiqList does not necessarily mean that a court or other competent authority has determined that the reported conduct was unlawful.
Likewise, failure to remove content does not mean that AntiqList has determined that the content is lawful.
AntiqList may take precautionary action based on risk, available information, and platform rules.
32. Cooperation With Rights Holders
AntiqList may cooperate with legitimate rights holders and authorized representatives to address repeated or serious infringement.
Such cooperation may include:
Reviewing reported listings;
Requesting documentation;
Removing infringing content;
Preventing repeat listings;
Communicating relevant information where legally permitted.
AntiqList does not act as a private court or legal authority.
33. No Guarantee of Complete Detection
AntiqList cannot guarantee that all unlawful, infringing, fraudulent, counterfeit, stolen, or prohibited content will be detected or removed before it is reported.
Users should exercise appropriate caution and report suspicious content promptly.
