Legal Resources

Constituency shall respond only to legally binding requests issued by competent judicial, regulatory, or law enforcement authorities under applicable European Union or Irish law. All requests must identify the issuing authority, statutory or judicial basis, and the specific content or account concerned. Constituency reserves the right to verify the authenticity and scope of any request prior to compliance and shall not respond to informal, non-binding, or speculative inquiries.

Where a request concerns Citizen Case Content for which a Representative acts as independent Data Controller, Constituency shall process such request strictly in accordance with documented Controller instructions, unless directly compelled by binding law. Where Constituency acts as Data Controller (including account registration data, system logs, or security data), it shall assess and respond to the request in accordance with the GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018 (Ireland), and applicable procedural safeguards.

Where the Company receives a valid order pursuant to Articles 9 (remove or disable access to illegal content) or 10 (provide information about a user involved in potentially illegal activity) of Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (Digital Services Act), it shall act without undue delay and limit its actions strictly to the scope of the order. Constituency may notify the affected User unless legally prohibited from doing so. Records of such orders may be included in aggregated form in the Transparency Reporting framework established under the DSA-Required Policies. The Company does not assume investigative responsibility or adjudicate the legality of public function decisions made by Representatives.

All intellectual property rights in the Platform, including its software, structure, branding, and technical architecture, remain vested in Constituency. Users retain ownership of content they submit; however, by submitting content, Users grant the Company a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, transmit, and display such content solely for the purpose of operating, securing, and improving the Platform. Such licence survives termination only to the extent necessary for legal compliance, dispute resolution, or regulatory obligations.

Any person who believes that content hosted on the Platform infringes copyright under the Copyright and Related Rights Act 2000 may submit a written notice identifying the allegedly infringing material, its electronic location, the rights claimed to be infringed, and a good faith statement of accuracy. Upon receipt of a sufficiently substantiated notice, Constituency may remove or disable access to the material in accordance with the Notice-and-Action framework. The Company may notify the affected User and provide an opportunity to respond, consistent with procedural safeguards under applicable intermediary service law.

Where a User repeatedly uploads content that infringes intellectual property rights, or submits manifestly unfounded infringement notices, the Company may implement proportionate measures including content restriction or account suspension in accordance with the Content Moderation and Appeals framework as set out in relevant documents and applicable laws. Nothing in this Policy imposes a proactive monitoring obligation upon the Company.
