Report content or copyright

Anyone, with or without an account, can tell us about illegal content, abuse or a copyright infringement on a server we host.

Pending review

This text has not been reviewed by a professional yet

Draft written by the team. The owner of the service is not incorporated yet, so its identity details are marked as pending, and the document is waiting for the review of a legal adviser before it has contractual value.

1. What you can report

Illegal content under EU or national law (Digital Services Act, article 16), child sexual abuse material, abuse of the service such as attacks or malware, copyright infringement (DMCA notice), and counter-notices against a copyright removal.

2. Report form

Give the exact location (server address or id, URL or file), explain why the content is illegal or infringing, and leave your name and email so we can answer. For child sexual abuse material your name and email are optional.

3. What happens next

We send an automatic acknowledgement to the email you give, with a reference. We review reports diligently and objectively, in order of severity, and may preserve evidence. If you report as a trusted flagger or authority, say so in the details.

4. Our decision

We tell you what we decided and why, and whether automated means were used. If we act against content, the server owner receives a statement of reasons and may appeal within 6 months. You may also appeal a decision not to act within the same period.

6. Counter-notice

If your material was removed by mistake or misidentification you may send a counter-notice with the same form: identify the material and where it was, state under penalty of perjury that it was removed by mistake, and give your name, address and consent to the jurisdiction of the competent court. We forward it to the person who sent the notice and restore the material in 10 to 14 business days unless they tell us they have filed a court action.

7. Repeat infringers

We close the accounts of users who repeatedly infringe copyright, in appropriate circumstances, after valid notices that were not successfully contested.

8. Designated agent

Our designated agent under 17 U.S.C. 512(c) is pending registration with the US Copyright Office, as the legal notice shows. Until then send notices through this form.
