Copyright and DMCA Policy

Effective date: September 24, 2026 · Version 2026-09-24

Palytt respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects our users to do the same. We respond to notices of claimed copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"), 17 U.S.C. § 512.

1. Where to send notices

Send copyright notices and counter-notices to our designated agent:

Designated Copyright Agent — Palytt Inc.

Email: legal@palytt.com

Please put "DMCA notice" or "DMCA counter-notice" in the subject line. This address is only for copyright matters; for other issues, contact support@palytt.com.

2. Filing a takedown notice

If you believe content on Palytt infringes a copyright you own or are authorized to enforce, your written notice must include:

  1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed (or, if several works are covered by one notice, a representative list).
  3. Identification of the material you claim is infringing and information reasonably sufficient for us to locate it — ideally the post link, username, or post ID.
  4. Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  6. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf.

We may send a copy of your notice, including your contact information, to the person who posted the material. Notices that don't substantially include these elements may not be acted on. Before filing, consider whether the use might be a fair use.

3. Filing a counter-notice

If your content was removed and you believe it was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to our designated agent. It must include:

  1. Your physical or electronic signature.
  2. Identification of the material that was removed or disabled and the location where it appeared before it was removed.
  3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
  4. Your name, address, and telephone number.
  5. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if your address is outside the United States, any judicial district in which Palytt Inc. may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notice, or that person's agent.

When we receive a valid counter-notice, we'll send a copy to the person who filed the original notice and tell them we'll restore the material in 10 business days. We'll restore it between 10 and 14 business days after we receive the counter-notice, unless our designated agent first receives notice that the complaining party has filed a court action seeking to restrain you from the infringing activity.

4. Repeat infringers

Each valid takedown notice against your content counts as a strike, unless the content is restored after a counter-notice or the notice is withdrawn. If an account receives three strikes within any 12-month period, we will terminate it. We may terminate an account sooner for clear or egregious infringement, and people whose accounts are terminated for infringement may not create a new one.

5. False claims

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), anyone who knowingly and materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that material was removed by mistake or misidentification, may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees. If you aren't sure whether content infringes your rights, consider speaking with a lawyer first.

6. Trademark and other concerns

For trademark complaints, email legal@palytt.com. For content that breaks our other rules, use in-app reporting or see our Community Guidelines. This policy is part of our Terms of Service.
