DMCA Policy

A notice should identify the protected work, give the exact URL of allegedly infringing material, and provide dependable contact information. It should state a good-faith belief that the use is unauthorized, confirm accuracy and authority under penalty of perjury where applicable, and include a physical or electronic signature.

A notice delivered through a real identified channel may be checked for completeness, authority and whether the material can be located. A supported notice may lead to proportionate restriction, but no particular outcome is promised. The Copyright lane in Report Content can organize facts locally.

An affected party may prepare a counter-notice identifying the material and former location, explaining under penalty of perjury why action resulted from mistake or misidentification, and supplying contact details, any legally required consent to jurisdiction and service, and a signature. A compliant counter-notice may be shared with the claimant.

Where appropriate and technically possible, access related to repeated valid infringement may be restricted. Material misrepresentation may create liability. Other issues can be organized through Report Content, while procedure questions belong in Contact Us.
