# Copyright / DMCA Policy

We respect intellectual property rights and respond to notices of alleged
infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512).

## Designated agent
Send notices to our designated DMCA contact: **dmca@[APP-DOMAIN]** *(to be set
at launch)*.

## What a valid notice must include
1. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed.
2. Identification of the allegedly infringing material and its location (URL / screen).
3. Your contact information (name, address, email, phone).
4. A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized.
5. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and
   that you are authorized to act on behalf of the rights-holder.
6. Your physical or electronic signature.

## Our process
1. We triage notices promptly and may remove or disable the disputed material
   while we investigate.
2. We notify the uploader (for user-submitted content) and provide a
   counter-notice path.
3. We reinstate material only if the statutory counter-notice process is
   satisfied and residual legal risk is acceptable.

## Repeat-infringer policy
We maintain and enforce a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances,
the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.
