What your notice must contain

• A physical or electronic signature of the rightsholder or an authorised agent.

• The exact URL(s) on this site where the material sits, with enough detail for us to find it.
• Your name, address, telephone number and email address.

What happens next

Valid notices are actioned promptly — normally within two business days. We remove or disable the material and tell the uploader where we can.

Counter-notice

If your work was removed in error, send a counter-notice to the same address with the same elements, plus a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal courts in San Francisco County, California. We may restore the material after ten business days unless the original complainant files suit.

Repeat infringers

Accounts and contributors that trigger repeated valid notices lose their access.
