We may also, at our sole discretion, limit access to our website and/or terminate the accounts of any users who infringe intellectual property rights, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.

Warning: Repeat copyright infringement will result in permanent termination of your access to our services.

7. VPN Service and DMCA Notices

Important Clarification: FreeAndroidVPN is a VPN (Virtual Private Network) service provider. Our VPN service:

Does NOT store, host, or control user traffic or content
Does NOT have the ability to identify specific users or their activities
Operates under a strict no-logs policy
Acts as a mere conduit for data transmission

Therefore, DMCA notices regarding activities conducted through our VPN service cannot be acted upon, as we:

Cannot identify the user responsible for specific traffic
Do not retain logs that would allow such identification
Are not the source or host of any content transmitted through the VPN

This DMCA Policy applies only to content hosted on our website (freeandroidvpn.com), not to traffic passing through our VPN servers.

8. Warning Against False Claims

Legal Warning: Under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability for damages.
