Notification of Copyright Infringement

If you believe that someone on FanGlitch has violated your copyright, you may send us a Notification of Copyright Infringement. For us to process such a notification, it must substantially comply with the requirements set forth in United States law. To speed our handling of your notification, please make sure it complies with the following criteria:

  1. Notifications may be submitted to FanGlitch's Registered Agent in one of two ways. You may send it via email (no attachments, please) to admin@mail.fanglitch.space, or you may send it via physical mail to 74 E Glenwood Ave # 254, Smyrna, DE 19977. We prefer to receive notification via email.
  2. Notifications must be signed by the copyright holder or the copyright holder's designated agent. Signatures may be a physical signature or a digital signature in a recognized industry-standard format such as PGP. Unsigned notifications will not be processed.
  3. Notifications must specifically identify the copyrighted work being infringed upon. For instance, if the work is a published book, provide the title, author, and ISBN; if the work is a magazine article, provide the title, author, magazine name, and magazine issue; if the work is available on the Internet, provide the URL of the work.
  4. Notifications must specifically include the URL where the work is being infringed upon FanGlitch's servers. For us to be able to reasonably identify the material, you must provide us with the complete URL, not a link to the entire account. For instance, instead of https://fanglitch.space/@username  (a link to the entire account), provide https://fanglitch.space/@username/12345 (a link to the specific post).
  5. Notifications must include sufficient information for us to contact you, including your address, your telephone number, and your email address.
  6. Notifications must contain a statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in this manner is not authorized by the copyright owner(s), their agent, or the law.
  7. Notifications must contain a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright that is allegedly being infringed.

Your notification will be forwarded, in its entirety, to the owner of the account posting the allegedly-infringing content. We reserve the right to make copies available to third parties, such as the Chilling Effects Clearinghouse, as we see fit, for purposes of academic study and legal review.

DMCA: Takedown Process

Takedown Process

When we receive a properly-formatted notice of copyright infringement, we will forward it to the account owner and provide a limited amount of time to disable access to the allegedly-infringing content.

If you have received this notice from us, this disabling can generally be done in one of two ways: you can edit or delete the post and media in question, or you can allow us to delete the post in question.

If we do not hear back from you with information about which option you'd prefer within the length of time we provide for you to select an option (usually between 24-48 hours), we will assume that you would like for us delete the post and media, and we will do so. This will not affect the rest of your account.

You then have one of three choices:

  1. You can accept the allegation of infringement, and state that you will not restore the content, file a counter-notification, or make further infringement upon the work in the future. If you choose to do this, you must delete the entry, comment, or image, if you have not already done so. This will count against you for determination of 'repeat offender' status. If you do not reply to any of our contact about an alleged infringement within 10 days of our forwarding the notification, we must assume that you have chosen this option.
  2. You can state that you do not accept the allegation of infringement, but you do not want to file a counter-notification or have us restore access to the allegedly-infringing content. If you choose to do this, we will not restore access to the entry, comment, or image. This will not affect the rest of your account. This will not count against you for determination of 'repeat offender' status.
  3. You can state that you do not accept the allegation of infringement, and let us know that you want to file a counter-notification under the provisions of law. If you choose to do this, please see the section below. This will not count against you for determination of 'repeat offender' status.

If you have received a notice of alleged infringement, you may not re-upload or re-post the allegedly-infringing material, unless you have gone through the counter-notification process. This applies whether you have deleted the material yourself, or you have chosen to allow us to disable access to the material. If you do re-upload or re-post the material, we will be forced to entirely disable your account.
