DMCA Policy

Great Medico respects the intellectual property rights of copyright owners and complies with applicable copyright laws, including the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).

This DMCA Policy explains how we handle copyright-related concerns, how external links are used on our website, and how copyright holders can contact us if an issue arises.

Our Approach to Copyright

Great Medico publishes original medical content that is written and reviewed by qualified medical professionals. We take full responsibility for the originality, accuracy, and integrity of our own editorial content.

At the same time, medical education often involves referencing books, research papers, and learning resources published by others. When such materials are mentioned or linked, this is done strictly for educational and reference purposes, with full respect for the rights of authors and publishers.

No Hosting of Copyrighted Files

Great Medico does not host, store, upload, or distribute copyrighted PDF files, books, journals, or research papers on its own servers.

In some cases, our content may:

  • Review or discuss medical books and learning materials
  • Mention publicly known educational resources
  • Provide external links to third-party websites where such materials are already publicly available

These links are shared strictly for educational and reference purposes. Great Medico does not control, maintain, or guarantee the availability, legality, or accuracy of content hosted on third-party websites.

If you are a copyright owner and believe that a linked resource should be removed, we encourage you to contact us.

Third-Party External Links Disclaimer

Any external links shared on Great Medico:

  • Are not owned or controlled by us
  • Are provided for informational or educational reference only
  • May change, move, or be removed by the third party at any time

Great Medico is not responsible for the content, legality, or availability of third-party websites.
