+1. Identification of the Original Work  
+Work: ElegantOTA Pro  
+  
+Official URL: https://elegantota.pro  
+  
+License: Softt Commercial License 1.2  
+  
+Nature: Commercial proprietary software (frontend and backend) for embedded OTA updates  
+  
+ElegantOTA Pro includes a custom frontend with drag-and-drop UI, SVG animations, and a C++ backend using AsyncWebServer, session authentication, gzipped HTML serving, firmware rollback, and OTA progress tracking.  
+  
+ElegantOTA Pro is licensed under Softt Commercial License 1.2 and the license explicitly mentions that:  
+Licensee shall not sublicense the Licensed Material to any third party.  
+Licensee shall not use the Licensed Material to build, develop, or offer any product or service that directly or indirectly competes with the products or services offered by Licensor.  
+  
+2. Infringing Repository Details  
+Repository URL: https://github.com/adrihd/PrettyOTA  
+  
+The repository above contains infringing content across its entire codebase, including:  
+  
+🔹 Frontend Infringement  
+prettyOTA.html: Replicates [private] UI layout, class structure, visual animations, and branding style from ElegantOTA Pro.  
+  
+🔹 Backend Infringement  
+PrettyOTA.cpp/.h/.Callbacks.cpp: Contains OTA handlers, gzipped page delivery, user session management, reboot logic, callback structure (onStart, onProgress, onEnd), and file upload routing that are substantially similar to [private] original work / source code of ElegantOTA Pro.  
+  
+This is also clearly evident from the demo GIF/video included in the README file of the PrettyOTA repository where we can see a lot of similarity between ElegantOTA Pro and PrettyOTA. (Our demo video is located at https://elegantota.pro)  
+  
+3. Infringing Forks  
+This repository in itself is a fork of an infringing repository which was disabled recently under the following notice: [private].  
+  
+I confirm that I have personally reviewed each fork and that my sworn statements apply to all of them.  
+  
+4. Remedy Requested  
+Due to the nature and extent of the infringement, the infringing party must:  
+  
+Delete the entire PrettyOTA repository and all of its forks  
+  
+Cease redistributing, modifying, or referencing any portion of ElegantOTA Pro or derivative work  
+  
+Refrain from building similar OTA systems based on stolen intellectual property  
+  
+Removal of PrettyOTA from any public registries including but not limited to PlatformIO registry and Arduino Library Registry  
+  
+No attribution or code-level modification can resolve this, as the project as a whole is a derivative and infringing work.  
+  
+5. Sworn Statements  
+I have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted materials described above on the infringing web pages is not authorized by the copyright owner, or its agent, or the law. I have taken fair use into consideration.  
+  
+I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner, or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.  
+  
+I have read and understand GitHub’s Guide to Filing a DMCA Notice.
