DMCA & Takedown Requests

Last updated

DubVoicer responds to notices of alleged copyright infringement in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and equivalent laws elsewhere. This page explains how to send a notice and what happens next.

Sending a takedown notice

Your notice must include:

  1. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed.
  2. The URL(s) on this site of the material you want removed.
  3. Your name, address, telephone number and email address.
  4. A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
  5. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are the owner or authorised to act for the owner.
  6. Your physical or electronic signature.

Send notices to our designated agent at dmca@[your-domain], or use the report form selecting “Copyright or trademark infringement” and including the elements above in the details field.

What we do

On receipt of a valid notice we remove or disable access to the material promptly, notify the uploader, and record the complaint against their account. Repeat infringers are terminated as described in the copyright policy.

Counter-notice

If you believe your content was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice containing:

  1. Identification of the removed material and its former URL.
  2. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake.
  3. Your name, address and telephone number, and consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for your address (or, if outside the US, any judicial district where DubVoicer may be found).
  4. Your physical or electronic signature.

We will forward the counter-notice to the original complainant. If they do not file a court action within 10–14 business days, the material may be restored.

Misrepresentation

Knowingly false claims in a notice or counter-notice may result in liability for damages under 17 U.S.C. §512(f).

Trademark and other complaints

For trademark, privacy, defamation or other non-copyright concerns, use the report form and describe the issue.
