Fair use is a US law that allows the reuse of copyright-protected material under certain circumstances without getting permission from the copyright owner. However, fair use is determined on a case-by-case basis, and different countries have different rules about when it's acceptable to use material without the copyright owner's permission.

LYKSTAGE will remove any content that it reasonably believes has not taken any legal authorization from its creator or not falls under the fair use rule.
