DMCA Notice

Our Commitment

We respect original creative work and take legitimate copyright concerns seriously.

When we receive a notice that substantially contains the information required by law, we will review the identified material and take appropriate action, which may include removing the material or disabling access to it.

We may contact the reporting party when additional information is reasonably necessary to understand, verify, or process a complaint.

How to Submit a DMCA Takedown Notice

A copyright owner or a person authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf may submit a written notification.

To help us locate and review the reported material, your notice should include all of the following information:

1. Your signature. Include the physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work. Clearly identify the copyrighted work you believe has been infringed. If your notice covers multiple works on the Website, you may provide a representative list.
3. Identification of the reported material. Clearly identify the material you believe is infringing and provide enough information for us to locate it, including the exact URL of each relevant page, image, article, file, or other item.
4. Your contact information. Provide information reasonably sufficient for us to contact you, including your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
5. Good-faith statement. Include a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. Accuracy and authority statement. Include a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right allegedly infringed.

Helpful Supporting Information

The following information is not a substitute for the required statements above, but it may help us review your notice:

• A link to an authorized or original version of the copyrighted work.
• The title, author, publisher, or registration information associated with the work.
• A brief explanation comparing the original work with the reported material.
• Evidence showing that you own the work or are authorized to represent its owner.

Incomplete or Unclear Notices

A notice that does not substantially include the required information may be incomplete and may delay our ability to review or process the complaint.

When reasonably possible, we may contact the sender and request missing details or clarification.

We may be unable to act when a notice does not identify the copyrighted work, does not provide the location of the reported material, or does not include sufficient contact information.

Our Response Process

After receiving a notice, we may take the following steps:

• Confirm receipt of the complaint.
• Review whether the notice substantially contains the required information.
• Locate and evaluate the material identified in the notice.
• Request clarification or additional information when reasonably necessary.
• Remove or disable access to the reported material where appropriate.
• Where applicable, notify the person who submitted or posted the affected material.
• Maintain appropriate records relating to the complaint and our response.

We generally aim to acknowledge copyright inquiries within three to five business days. This is a service target rather than a guarantee, and urgent, incomplete, disputed, or complex matters may require additional time.

Where applicable law requires action within a different period, the applicable legal requirement will control.

Counter-Notification

If material associated with you was removed or disabled and you believe the action resulted from a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written counter-notification.

Send the counter-notification to: splanetsy@gmail.com using the subject line DMCA Counter-Notification.

Your counter-notification should include all of the following:

1. Your signature. Include your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the removed material. Identify the material that was removed or disabled and state the location where it appeared before removal, including the original page URL where available.
3. Mistake or misidentification statement. State under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Your contact information. Provide your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
5. Consent to court jurisdiction. State that you consent to the jurisdiction of the United States Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located. If your address is outside the United States, state that you consent to the jurisdiction of any United States Federal District Court in which the Website operator may be found.
6. Acceptance of service. State that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original infringement notice or that person’s authorized agent.

Processing a Counter-Notification

After receiving a counter-notification that substantially contains the required information, we may provide a copy to the person who submitted the original infringement notice.

Where the statutory counter-notification process applies, the removed material may be restored no sooner than ten and no later than fourteen business days after receipt of a valid counter-notification.

The material will not be restored during that period if the original reporting party informs us that a court action has been filed seeking an order to restrain the allegedly infringing activity.

Repeat Infringer Policy

We do not permit repeated infringement of third-party intellectual property rights.

Where the Website permits user-submitted material, accounts, comments, contributions, or similar access, we may restrict or terminate access in appropriate circumstances when a person repeatedly infringes copyright.

We may consider the number, frequency, credibility, and circumstances of notices and may take action reasonably appropriate to the nature of the Website and the affected material.

Misrepresentation

Copyright notices and counter-notifications should be submitted honestly and accurately.

A person who knowingly makes a material misrepresentation that content is infringing, or that removed content was removed through mistake or misidentification, may be responsible for damages, costs, or legal fees under applicable law.

Do not submit a DMCA notice merely because you disagree with an article, review, opinion, criticism, commentary, or other lawful use.

Third-Party Content and External Websites

Some pages may link to, embed, reference, or discuss material hosted by independent third parties.

If the allegedly infringing material is controlled exclusively by another website, platform, hosting provider, or service, you may also need to contact that third party directly.

We cannot remove material from a third-party system that we do not own or control, although we may review links or references appearing on our Website.

Changes to This DMCA Notice

We may update this DMCA Notice when our Website, contact information, reporting process, or applicable legal requirements change.

The updated version will be published on this page, and the “Last updated” date will be revised.
