How to Submit a DMCA Notice

- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorised to act on their behalf.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed, or, if multiple works on a single site are covered, a representative list of those works.
- Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate it (for example, a URL or screenshot).
- Your name, mailing address, telephone number and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorised to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
Send your notice by email to okan@tikistudios.io, or by post to the address above.
Counter-Notification
If content you submitted was removed or disabled as a result of a DMCA notice and you believe it was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notification. Under 17 U.S.C. §512(g), a valid counter-notification must include:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the material that was removed or disabled, and the location where it appeared before removal.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, telephone number and email address.
- A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or, if your address is outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found; and that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notice.
Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the party who filed the original notice. Unless that party files a court action within 10–14 business days, we will restore the removed material or re-enable access to it.
Misrepresentation Warning
Under 17 U.S.C. §512(f), any person who knowingly and materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing, or that material was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be held liable for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees. Submit notices only if you have a genuine, good-faith belief in the claim.
Repeat Infringers
In appropriate circumstances, we will terminate the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.
