DMCA & Copyright
Rights holders and content submitters can address copyright disputes through a clear, verifiable process.
We explain our rules in plain language. If this summary conflicts with the detailed terms below, the detailed terms control.
What a copyright notice must contain
Provide the rights holder’s or authorized agent’s name and contact details, a description of the protected work, the exact URL of the allegedly infringing material, and enough information to locate it.
The notice should also include good-faith and accuracy statements and an electronic or physical signature.
Submission and review process
Submit the notice through our contact page and identify it as a copyright or legal request. After receiving a complete notice, we review it, restrict access where appropriate, and notify the submitter or developer.
We may request missing information before processing an incomplete notice.
Counter-notification
If material was removed because of mistake or misidentification, the affected party may submit identity and contact details, identify the removed material, provide a good-faith statement, and include jurisdiction and service-of-process consent where required by applicable law.
Restoration and further proceedings
We may forward a valid counter-notice to the claimant. Material may be restored if the claimant does not begin the required proceeding within the legally prescribed period. Independent security or policy concerns may still justify removal.
Misrepresentation and repeat infringement
Knowingly making material misrepresentations may create legal liability. We may restrict submissions, remove content, or terminate access for repeat infringers.
