DMCA / Copyright Policy

1. Overview

reCleave respects intellectual property rights and expects users to do the same. We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement consistent with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512) and similar laws where applicable. This policy explains how to notify us of infringing material and how to file a counter-notification if your content was removed.

3. Filing a DMCA notice

If you are a copyright owner (or authorized to act on one's behalf) and believe content on reCleave infringes your copyright, send a written notice that includes:

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 claimed to have been infringed (or a representative list if multiple works)
3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing, and information reasonably sufficient to locate it on the Platform (URL and description)
4. Your contact information: 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 authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner

Incomplete notices may delay our response. Knowingly misrepresenting that material is infringing may expose you to liability under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).

4. What we do after a valid notice

Upon receipt of a notice that substantially complies with Section 3, we will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the material identified, and we may notify the user who posted it. We may terminate accounts of users who are repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

5. Counter-notification

If your content was removed because of a DMCA notice and you believe the removal was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notification that includes:

1. Your physical or electronic signature
2. Identification of the material that was removed or to which access was disabled, and the location where it appeared before removal
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, and 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 outside the United States, for any judicial district in which reCleave may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who filed the original notice (or their agent)

If we receive a valid counter-notification, we may forward it to the original complainant and restore the material within 10–14 business days unless the complainant notifies us that they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the alleged infringement.

6. Other intellectual property

For trademark, publicity, or other IP concerns that are not copyright claims, contact support@recleave.com with details and supporting documentation. We will review in good faith.
