1. Overview

We operate as a service provider under the DMCA safe-harbour provisions. If you are the rights holder (or an agent acting on their behalf) and believe material accessible through our service infringes your copyright, you can submit a takedown notice that meets the requirements listed below.

We’ll act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material, notify the user who posted it, and provide the user an opportunity to submit a counter-notice.

2. Submitting a takedown notice

To be effective under the DMCA your notice must include all of the following:

1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorised to act on behalf of the rights holder.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (e.g., a registration number, a link to the original work).
3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing and the URL where it appears on our service.
4. Your contact information — full legal name, mailing address, phone, email.
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorised by the rights holder, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the rights holder or are authorised to act on their behalf.

3. Designated agent

Send notices to our designated DMCA agent:

We acknowledge receipt within 1 business day. We aim to action a complete notice within 10 business days of receipt.

4. Counter-notice

If material you posted was removed and you believe it does not infringe (because you own it, you have permission, or the use is fair) you can submit a counter-notice. It must include:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material that was removed and the location at which it appeared before removal.
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Your full name, address, phone, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for the district where you reside (or, if outside the U.S., of any judicial district in which PalapaVibez may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notice.

On receiving a valid counter-notice we will forward it to the original complainant and may restore the material in 10–14 business days unless the complainant notifies us they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the activity.

5. Repeat-infringer policy

We terminate the accounts of users who repeatedly infringe copyright. We track confirmed DMCA notices per account; an account receiving multiple notices that are not successfully countered will be suspended or terminated at our discretion.

6. False claims

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing — or that material was removed by mistake — may be liable for damages. Please do not file a notice unless you have made a good-faith determination that the use is not authorised.

7. Trademarks and other IP

For trademark claims, right-of-publicity claims, or other (non-copyright) IP complaints, email [email protected]with the subject “IP Complaint” and include:

• The right at issue and proof of ownership (registration number, etc.).
• The URL of the allegedly infringing material on our service.
• Your contact information.
• A statement of why you believe the use is infringing.

We’ll review and respond, typically within 10 business days.
