Copyright

Welcome to samasta.id. This Copyright Notice outlines the terms and conditions regarding the use of content found on this website (the “Site”). Your access to and use of the Site and its content is conditioned upon your acceptance of and compliance with this notice. This notice applies to all visitors, users, and others who wish to access or use the content provided by samasta.id.

1. Ownership of Content

All content published and made available on this Site is the property of samasta.id and/or its content creators, licensors, or other respective owners. This includes, but is not limited to, all text, articles, blog posts, data compilations, salary estimations, company profiles, analyses, research, graphics (if any were present), logos, icons, audio clips, video clips, digital downloads, user interface elements, design, code, and software (collectively referred to as “Content“).

The Content is protected by international copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property or proprietary rights laws, including those of Pakistan and other relevant jurisdictions. Samasta.id reserves all rights not expressly granted in and to the Site and the Content. The compilation of all Content on this Site is the exclusive property of samasta.id and protected by applicable copyright laws.

The unique data compilations, salary estimation methodologies, and analytical frameworks used to present information on Pakistani companies and their compensation structures are the exclusive intellectual property of samasta.id. This proprietary information forms a core part of our service and is the result of significant investment in research, analysis, and data aggregation.

2. Permitted Uses of Content

Samasta.id grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Content on this Site strictly for personal, non-commercial informational purposes, subject to the restrictions outlined in this Copyright Notice. Permitted uses include:

  • Personal Viewing: You may view, download for caching purposes only, and print pages from the Site for your own personal, non-commercial use, subject to the restrictions set out below and elsewhere in these terms and conditions.

  • Limited Sharing: You may share links to articles or pages on samasta.id via social media platforms or email, provided that samasta.id is clearly identified as the source of the Content and the sharing does not imply endorsement by samasta.id or misrepresent the Content‘s origin or intent.

  • Quotation under Fair Use/Fair Dealing: You may quote limited excerpts from the Content for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, or research, provided that such use is considered “fair use” or “fair dealing” under applicable copyright law. Any such quotation must be accompanied by a clear and conspicuous attribution to samasta.id as the source, including, where feasible, a reference to the specific URL of the source material. The amount of Content quoted must be no more than necessary for the intended purpose and must not substitute for accessing the original Content on samasta.id.

It is important to understand that “Fair Use” is a legal doctrine that promotes freedom of expression by permitting the unlicensed use of copyright-protected works in certain circumstances. Factors typically considered in determining fair use include: (1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; (2) the nature of the copyrighted work; (3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and (4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work. For our niche of company information and salary estimates in Pakistan, reproducing substantial portions of our data, analyses, or salary benchmarks, even for non-commercial purposes, would likely harm the potential market for our Content and would generally not be considered fair use without explicit permission.

3. Prohibited Uses of Content

Any use of the Content not expressly permitted by this Copyright Notice is strictly prohibited. Without prior written consent from samasta.id, you may NOT:

  • Republish or Redistribute: Republish, redistribute, or re-disseminate Content from this Site (including republication on another website, or in any print, digital, or other media) beyond the limited sharing described above. This includes copying and pasting entire articles or substantial portions of our data, company profiles, or salary estimates.

  • Sell, Rent, or Sub-license: Sell, rent, sub-license, or otherwise commercially exploit Content from the Site.

  • Public Display or Performance: Show any Content from the Site in public for commercial purposes or in a manner that competes with or devalues the Site.

  • Modification and Derivative Works: Modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or create derivative works based on any Content found on this Site. This includes altering our salary data or company information and presenting it as new or original work.

  • Data Mining and Scraping: Use any automated means, including but not limited to, robots, spiders, scrapers, or other data gathering tools, to download, extract, monitor, or collect Content from the Site for any purpose, especially for building databases, training AI models, or for competitive analysis.

  • Framing or Embedding: Frame or utilize framing techniques to enclose any trademark, logo, or other proprietary information (including images, text, page layout, or form) of samasta.id without express written consent.

  • Misrepresentation: Use the Content in any way that suggests an association, approval, or endorsement by samasta.id where none exists, or in a way that is misleading, defamatory, or illegal.

  • Systematic Collection: Engage in the systematic collection or aggregation of Content, particularly our proprietary company information and salary estimates, to create or compile, directly or indirectly, a collection, compilation, database, or directory without written permission from us.

  • Use in AI or Machine Learning: Use any Content from this site, including text, data, or any other material, for the purpose of training, developing, or improving any artificial intelligence (AI) models, machine learning (ML) systems, or similar technologies, without the express prior written consent of samasta.id.

These prohibitions are essential to protect the significant investment samasta.id makes in curating, researching, and presenting unique and valuable information regarding the Pakistani corporate and employment landscape.
