Handling Infringement Claims and Counter-Notices
Among Us is committed to respecting and protecting intellectual property rights in compliance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). We recognize the importance of copyright law in fostering creativity and innovation and have implemented clear procedures to address allegations of copyright infringement. If you believe that your copyrighted material has been used without authorization on our platform, or within any content related to Among Us, you have the right to submit a formal DMCA takedown notice. Our team will carefully review each claim and take prompt action to maintain a lawful environment for all users.
- To initiate a DMCA complaint, the complainant must provide a detailed written notice that includes accurate contact information, identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed, and a precise description of the location where the infringing material is found.
- The notice must include a statement made under penalty of perjury asserting that the complainant is the copyright owner or is authorized to act on behalf of the owner, as well as a good faith belief that the disputed use is not permitted by law.
- Once a valid DMCA notification is received, we will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing content and notify the user responsible for the content about the action taken.
- We also provide a clear process for counter-notifications, allowing users who believe their content was mistakenly removed to submit a formal response. This response must include their contact information, identification of the removed content, a statement under penalty of perjury asserting a good faith belief in the rightful use of the content, and consent to jurisdiction.
- Our team reviews all counter-notices carefully and, if the legal requirements are met, restores the content unless the original complainant files a lawsuit within the required timeframe.
Protecting intellectual property rights while balancing the rights of users is fundamental to maintaining a positive community around Among Us.
