Copyright & DMCA Policy

Effective date: 2026-08-27

1. Our commitment

Revolution Unlocked adheres to United States copyright law and expects our users and creators to do the same. We respond to valid notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. §512, and comparable laws.

2. Designated Copyright Agent

We have registered a designated agent with the United States Copyright Office to receive notifications of claimed infringement under 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(2). Notices must be sent to:

Email: [email protected] Phone: +1 865 625 8810 (informational line only — see §3, written notice required)

Full registration details and a mailing address will be published once the platform is live and open to users.

3. Filing a takedown notice

A valid notice under §512(c)(3) must include:

(a) a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed; (c) identification of the material claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient to locate it (e.g., the URL); (d) information reasonably sufficient to contact you — address, telephone number, and email address; (e) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (f) 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 owner of the right allegedly infringed.

A phone call to the number above does not, by itself, constitute a valid notice. Notices that omit any of the elements above are not valid under §512(c)(3). We will tell you what is missing and invite a corrected notice.

You should also be aware that your notice, including your contact information, may be forwarded to the creator who posted the material — see §4.

4. Our response

On receipt of a valid notice we will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the identified material, and will make a reasonable effort to notify the creator who posted it, including a copy of the notice.

5. Counter-notification

A creator whose content was removed may submit a counter-notification under §512(g)(3), which must include:

(a) the creator's physical or electronic signature; (b) identification of the material removed and the location at which it appeared before removal; (c) a statement under penalty of perjury that the creator has a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification; (d) the creator's name, physical address, and telephone number; and (e) a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the address is located — or, if the address is outside the United States, any judicial district in which the Platform operator may be found — and that the creator will accept service of process from the complaining party or its agent.

On receipt of a valid counter-notification we forward it to the complaining party. Unless that party notifies us that it has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the allegedly infringing activity, we may restore the material not less than 10 and not more than 14 business days after forwarding the counter-notification.

6. Repeat-infringer policy

We terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of creators or users who are repeat infringers.

7. Misrepresentation

Under §512(f), knowingly materially misrepresenting that material is infringing — or that material was removed by mistake or misidentification — may result in liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.

8. Rights-verification interplay

This policy operates alongside our creator rights lifecycle (UNVERIFIED → SELF_ATTESTED → VERIFIED; RESTRICTED / TAKEDOWN_REQUESTED / REMOVED). A valid takedown moves affected content to TAKEDOWN_REQUESTED / REMOVED.

9. Notices outside the United States

Where a notice is submitted under a non-US regime, we handle it under the applicable notice-and-action process for that jurisdiction. See the Content Moderation & Illegal Content Policy.
