TeslaStreams responds to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. §512). This page describes our designated agent and our process.
Designated agent
- [DMCA Agent name — set before launch]
- [Agent mailing address — set before launch]
- [dmca-agent-email — set before launch]
- [Agent phone — set before launch]
Registered with the U.S. Copyright Office's DMCA Designated Agent Directory (copyright.gov/dmca-directory/), renewed every 3 years.
How to submit a takedown notice
To be effective, a notice must include, in writing, to the designated agent above:
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.
- Identification of the material claimed to be infringing and its location on our service, with enough detail for us to locate it.
- Your contact information: name, address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
- Your physical or electronic signature.
What happens after we receive a notice
We review each notice within one business day of receipt. A notice missing a required element above receives a reply asking for the missing piece rather than a silent drop. Where the notice concerns user-submitted content, we remove or disable access to the identified material and log the incident against the account. Where it concerns something else — a UI asset, a comparison-page screenshot — we route it internally for review.
Counter-notification
If material was removed and you believe this was a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notice to the designated agent above. We forward valid counter-notices to the original complainant. Absent a filed lawsuit, we restore the material within 10-14 business days of a valid counter-notice, per §512(g).
Repeat-infringer policy
We terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers. Our default policy: three valid, unretracted takedown notices against one account within a 12-month period result in termination of that account. We enforce this policy — a policy that exists on paper but is never applied is not a policy we intend to have.
