DMCA & Copyright

How copyright claims work

[Company Name] responds to valid notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and comparable laws. A valid notice can lead us to disable or remove the identified zap before its normal expiration.

Send a takedown notice

Email our designated agent at [Support Email]. A DMCA notice must contain:

• A clear identification of the copyrighted work you believe was infringed.
• The exact zap link or transfer ID where the material can be found. Without it, we cannot locate the file.
• Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
• A statement that you have a good-faith belief the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the notice is accurate and that you are the rights owner or authorized to act for them.
• Your physical or electronic signature.

What follows a valid notice

We promptly disable or remove the zap. zappp does not require accounts, so we may not have a way to contact the sender. When contact information is available, we may forward the notice.

Counter-notices

If your zap was removed because of a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to [Support Email]. It must identify the removed material and former link, provide your contact information, state under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the removal was mistaken, consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of [Governing Law], and include your signature. Where the law permits, we may restore the material unless the original claimant files a court action.

Repeat infringement

We disable links, restrict activity, and, where a person or organization can be identified, terminate access for repeat infringement.

Accuracy matters

A knowingly false takedown notice or counter-notice can create legal liability. Use this process only for copyright claims. Malware, fraud, harassment, and other harm belong in an abuse report.
