1. Ownership

All material published by DarkPlus — the trading name of 64.645.952 Nicolas Santos Alves, CNPJ 64.645.952/0001-45 — is protected by Law 9.610/1998 (the Brazilian Copyright Act), the Berne Convention and other applicable treaties.

This includes, without limitation: the text, structure and illustrations of every ebook; the video, audio, slides and exercises of every training programme; workbooks, checklists, spreadsheets and templates; the design, layout and source code of darkplus.online; and the DarkPlus name, logo and visual identity.

Nothing on this site transfers ownership of any of it. Rights not expressly granted below are reserved.

2. Your Licence as a Buyer

When you buy a product, DarkPlus grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and revocable licence to use that product. Under it you may:

• read, watch or use the product on devices you personally own or control;
• print one copy of a written product for your own use;
• apply what you learn in your own work, business or professional practice, without restriction and without owing us anything;
• quote short passages elsewhere, with attribution to DarkPlus and a link to darkplus.online, within the limits of fair quotation under Article 46 of Law 9.610/1998.

Where a template, spreadsheet or checklist is sold specifically as a working tool, you may also adapt it and use the adapted version inside your own organisation. You still may not distribute or sell it, adapted or not.

The licence lasts as long as you lawfully hold the product. It ends if the purchase is refunded or charged back, or if you breach clause 3.

3. What You May Not Do

Without our prior written permission, you may not:

• copy, publish, post or distribute a product, in whole or in substantial part, in any medium;
• upload it to a file-sharing service, cloud drive, forum, messaging group, torrent or any other location where others can obtain it;
• resell, rent, lend, sublicense, give away or transfer your copy or your access credentials;
• share one set of credentials among several people, or buy a single licence for a team;
• use the content as teaching material for a paying audience, or incorporate it into a product of your own;
• translate, adapt or create derivative works from it for distribution;
• remove or alter a copyright notice, watermark, licence identifier or author credit;
• circumvent any technical measure that protects access;
• use the DarkPlus name, logo or title names in a way that suggests an endorsement, partnership or authorship that does not exist;
• extract content by automated means — scraping, bulk downloading or text and data mining — for any purpose.

Unauthorised reproduction or distribution is an offence under Article 184 of the Brazilian Penal Code and gives rise to civil liability under Articles 102 to 110 of Law 9.610/1998. We monitor for infringing copies and we do act on what we find.

4. Asking for Permission

Legitimate uses beyond the licence are usually possible, and are usually free. Write to us if you want to:

• buy multi-seat or corporate access for a team;
• use an extract in academic work, journalism or a review;
• translate a title, or publish it on another platform;
• quote more than a short passage in your own book or course.

Email niicolassantos0@gmail.com with the subject "Licensing". We answer within one business day.

5. Reporting Infringing Material

We respect the rights of others and expect the same in return. If you own a copyright, trade mark or other right and believe that material we publish infringes it, send us a notice containing:

• your full name, postal address, email address and telephone number;
• identification of the work you say has been infringed, with a copy or a link to the original;
• the exact location on darkplus.online of the material you are complaining about (full URL, page and paragraph);
• a statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by you, your agent or the law;
• a statement that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the rights holder or authorised to act for them;
• your physical or electronic signature.

We acknowledge within two business days and decide within five business days. Where a notice is well founded we remove or disable the material and tell you what we did. A notice sent in bad faith may expose the sender to liability for the resulting loss.

6. Counter-Notice

If we remove material of yours and you believe the removal was mistaken, send a counter-notice to the same address with your contact details, identification of the removed material and its former location, a statement of why you believe the removal was an error, and your signature. We review it within five business days and restore the material where the objection is justified.

7. Reporting a Pirated Copy

If you find a DarkPlus title being given away, resold or republished without permission, please tell us. Send the link and anything else that helps — a screenshot, the name of the group, the date. We do not ask for your identity to be disclosed to anyone, and we do not pursue readers who report in good faith.

8. Third-Party Material in Our Products

Where a product quotes, cites or reproduces third-party material, it does so under a licence, under fair quotation, or with the rights holder's permission, and it credits the source. If you believe a credit is missing or wrong, tell us and we will correct it in the next revision — and, where the error is material, immediately.
