Copyright and DMCA

How rights holders can reach us.

Before you publish: replace every [[…]] placeholder on this page. These are templates written to match what the software actually does — they are not legal advice, and a lawyer in your jurisdiction should read them before you rely on them.

What VenomSaver hosts

Nothing, in the ordinary sense. The service fetches a file at a user's request, holds it briefly in a cache and deletes it. There is no library, no search index and no public catalogue of anything downloaded. Removing a specific file from our cache does not remove it from the site it came from, which is where it is actually published.

That said, notices are taken seriously, and the operator will act on a valid one.

Sending a notice

Email [[dmca@venomsaver.com]] with:

  1. your signature (electronic is fine), as the rights holder or their authorised agent;
  2. identification of the work you say is infringed;
  3. the exact URL or URLs at issue, specific enough for us to locate them;
  4. your name, address, telephone number and email;
  5. a statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorised by the rights holder, its agent, or the law;
  6. a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are authorised to act for the rights holder.

Incomplete notices may be delayed. Notices are usually actioned within [[5]] business days.

Counter-notice

If you believe material was removed in error, send a counter-notice to the same address with your signature, identification of the material and where it appeared, a statement under penalty of perjury that the removal was a mistake or misidentification, and your contact details with consent to jurisdiction in [[COUNTRY]].

Repeat infringers

Access is terminated for users who repeatedly use the service to infringe.

Misuse

Knowingly making a material misrepresentation in a takedown notice carries liability for damages under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f) and comparable provisions elsewhere.

Operator note: the DMCA safe harbour is a US mechanism, and claiming it properly means designating an agent with the US Copyright Office (copyright.gov/dmca-directory) and paying the registration fee. If you are operating from outside the US, ask a lawyer whether registering is worth it for you and what your local equivalent is — this page alone does not put you in a safe harbour.
