Our Response Process

When we receive a valid DMCA takedown notice, we will:

• Promptly acknowledge receipt of the complaint
• Review the complaint to verify it meets DMCA requirements
• Remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing content
• Notify the affected user about the removal
• Provide the affected user with information about counter-notification procedures

We aim to process DMCA notices within 24-48 hours of receipt. However, the exact timing may vary depending on the complexity of the complaint and verification requirements.

Counter-Notification Procedures

If you believe that your content was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notification. To file a counter-notification, you must provide:

• Your physical or electronic signature
