Description of the Copyrighted Works +The copyrighted works at issue include original photographs owned by HOCOL S.A., depicting oil wells, oil-field equipment, and related operational locations. +These photographs are proprietary visual assets created or acquired by HOCOL S.A. and are protected by copyright. The original works are maintained in the company's image archive. +The copyrighted works may be identified by comparing the original photographs with the copies published in the reported GitHub repository. +3. Location of the Allegedly Infringing Material +Repository owner: SystemBlue7 +Repository: HOCOL +Reported URL: +https://github.com/SystemBlue7/HOCOL/tree/main/PUNTOS +The reported directory contains photographs that appear to be copies of original copyrighted images belonging to HOCOL S.A. +4. Nature of the Copyright Infringement +The alleged infringement concerns the unauthorized reproduction, uploading, and public display of copyrighted photographs belonging to HOCOL S.A. +The images published in the reported repository are substantially identical to photographs contained in HOCOL S.A.'s original image archive. +The reported material reproduces the copyrighted photographic works themselves, rather than merely referring to HOCOL S.A. or using its brand name. +HOCOL S.A. has not authorized the repository owner to reproduce, distribute, or publicly display these photographs on GitHub. +The alleged infringement therefore involves the unauthorized copying and publication of protected photographic works. +5. Identification of the Material to Be Removed +The allegedly infringing material is located in the following GitHub directory: +https://github.com/SystemBlue7/HOCOL/tree/main/PUNTOS +This directory contains multiple image files depicting HOCOL's operational infrastructure, oil-field facilities, wells, equipment, and related locations. +The files are published under the directory of PUNTOS in the main branch of the reported repository, as illustrated by the repository's publicly accessible file listing. +The reported material includes, among others, image files with names such as: +Bogota Torre Samsung.png +Colombia Norte Arrecife 4.jpeg +Colombia Norte Arrecife Norte.jpeg +Colombia Norte Arrecife Pozo Coralino 1 y 2.jpeg +Colombia Norte Cicuco 15.png +Colombia Norte Cicuco 18.jpeg +Colombia Norte Cicuco 22.jpeg +Colombia Norte Cicuco Apoyo satelite Zona PIA.jpeg +Colombia Norte Cicuco Chicagua.jpeg +Colombia Norte Cicuco Porteria Zona Industrial.jpeg +Colombia Norte Cicuco Tanques Bala.jpeg +Colombia Norte Cicuco Zona Residencial.jpeg +Colombia Norte Ovejas Campo Saman.jpeg +Colombia Norte Porteria principal zona residencial.jpeg +Llanos Bunker 1.png +Llanos Bunker 2.png +Llanos Bunker 3.png + +These filenames are provided as examples of the image files visible in the reported directory and are not intended to represent an exhaustive list. +The complaint concerns the unauthorized reproduction and public display of copyrighted photographic works owned by HOCOL S.A., rather than the mere use of corporate names or references to its facilities. +We request that GitHub review the image files contained in this directory and remove or disable access to those that reproduce HOCOL S.A.'s copyrighted photographs without authorization. +6. Copyright Status and Authorization +The copyrighted photographs are not distributed under an open-source license, and no authorization has been granted to the repository owner to publish or reproduce them. +The copyright owner has not consented to the use of these photographs in the reported repository. +7. Requested Action +We respectfully request that GitHub review the reported material under its DMCA takedown process and remove or disable access to the identified infringing photographs. +We are submitting this revised notice in response to your request to consolidate the original claim and the additional information into a single, complete notification. +8. Good Faith Statement +I have a good faith belief that the use of the copyrighted material described above is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law. +I have considered whether the reported use may qualify as fair use or otherwise be legally permitted. +9. Statement Under Penalty of Perjury +I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notification is accurate and that I am authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive rights allegedly infringed. +10.
