DMCA & Content Removal

1. Before you file

Check that the material is actually hosted on this domain. Content on partner platforms reached through outbound links is hosted by those platforms, and a notice about it must go to their designated agent — we cannot remove what we do not host.

Consider also whether the use is permitted as fair use, fair dealing, quotation or reporting. A notice sworn under penalty of perjury should not be sent lightly.

2. What a valid notice must contain

• A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorised to act for them.
• Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.
• The exact URL or URLs on this site where the material appears, precise enough for it to be located.
• Your name, postal address, telephone number and email address.
• A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorised by the owner, its agent or the law.
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the owner or authorised to act on their behalf.

3. Where to send it

Send notices to hello@dirtychatbots.review with the subject line "DMCA Notice". Email is the fastest route and is the designated channel for this site. A postal address for formal service is available on request.

4. What happens after a notice arrives

Receipt is acknowledged, usually within two business days. Material that is the subject of a complete and good-faith notice is removed or disabled while the claim is assessed, generally within five business days of receipt.

Removal at this stage is not an admission that the claim is correct. It is the standard precaution the law expects while the facts are established.

5. Counter-notification

If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you may send a counter-notice. It must identify the material and its previous location, include your contact details, and include a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the removal was in error.

A counter-notice must also include your consent to the jurisdiction of an appropriate court and your agreement to accept service of process from the complainant or their agent.

6. Repeat infringers

Contributors and partners who repeatedly supply infringing material are removed from the site and from any commercial relationship with it.

7. Misuse of this process

Knowingly making a material misrepresentation in a notice or counter-notice carries liability for damages, including costs and legal fees, under 17 U.S.C. §512(f). Notices sent to suppress lawful criticism, comparison or competition are refused and recorded.

8. Imagery on this site

Photographic and illustrative assets on this site are either produced for it or generated. Every character depicted is fictional and is depicted as an adult over 18. No image is intended to depict a real, identifiable person.

9. Non-consensual and unlawful content

Any report of non-consensual intimate imagery, content involving a minor, or any other unlawful material is treated as an emergency. Write to hello@dirtychatbots.review with "URGENT" in the subject line. Such reports are actioned ahead of everything else and, where the law requires it, referred to the appropriate authorities.

10. Personal data removal

Requests to remove personal data rather than copyrighted work are handled under the Privacy Policy. Both routes reach the same inbox, so a request sent to the wrong one is redirected rather than refused.

11. Trademark complaints

Complaints that a mark is used in a way suggesting false endorsement should include the registration details, the URL, and an explanation of the confusion alleged. Descriptive and nominative references to third-party brands are permitted and are used deliberately on this site.

12. Record keeping

Notices, counter-notices and the actions taken in response are retained for as long as needed to evidence that the process was followed, and are disclosed only where the law requires it.
