Copyright and DMCA Policy

Effective date: 27 July 2026
Last updated: 27 July 2026

Yubano respects intellectual-property rights and expects users of Yubano to do the same. This Policy describes notices under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) and other copyright complaints.

1. Before submitting a notice

Consider whether the material is authorized, licensed, in the public domain, or protected by an exception such as fair use. A false or materially misleading notice or counter-notice may create liability. You may wish to consult a lawyer.

2. DMCA takedown notice

To report claimed copyright infringement, email [email protected] with a written notice containing:

1. your physical or electronic signature as the copyright owner or authorized agent;
2. identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed, or a representative list if one notice covers multiple works at one online site;
3. identification of the allegedly infringing material and information reasonably sufficient for us to locate it, such as a project/public URL, asset ID, screenshot, and description;
4. your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address;
5. a statement that you have a good-faith belief the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or law; and
6. a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act for the owner.

3. Our response

We may forward the notice, including claimant contact information, to the affected user. We may remove or disable access to material when we believe action is appropriate and will take reasonable steps to notify the affected user. We may request missing information. A notice does not automatically prove infringement.

4. Counter-notice

If material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification, the affected user may email [email protected] a written counter-notice containing:

1. the user’s physical or electronic signature;
2. identification of the material removed or disabled and the location where it appeared before removal;
3. a statement under penalty of perjury that the user has a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification; and
4. the user’s name, address, and telephone number, plus a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the U.S. Federal District Court for the judicial district where the address is located—or, if outside the United States, for a judicial district where Yubano may be found—and accepting service of process from the original claimant or its agent.

We may send a copy of the counter-notice to the claimant. Unless the claimant tells us it filed a court action seeking to restrain the user from the allegedly infringing activity, we may restore the material 10 to 14 business days after forwarding the counter-notice, or later at our discretion, subject to law.

5. Repeat infringers

In appropriate circumstances, we may terminate users we reasonably determine are repeat infringers. We may also restrict accounts for serious or repeated rights violations even when a notice is not technically complete. We consider the totality of circumstances and do not count notices we know are invalid.

6. Other intellectual-property complaints

For trademark, publicity, likeness, or non-U.S. copyright complaints, contact [email protected] with your identity, the right at issue, the material/location, your basis for the claim, and requested action. This process does not replace a valid DMCA notice.

7. Abuse of this process

Do not knowingly misrepresent that material infringes or was removed by mistake. We may suspend users who abuse the reporting process and may disclose notices as required by law.
