DMCA Copyright Policy
Dracobyte LLC | Dracobyte | Effective April 20, 2026
This policy describes how to report alleged copyright infringement to Dracobyte and how accused users may submit a counter-notice. Dracobyte complies with the notice-and-takedown procedure set out in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. Section 512.
1. Designated Agent
Notices of alleged copyright infringement must be sent to our designated agent registered with the U.S. Copyright Office:
Designated Agent: Dracobyte LLC DMCA Agent (dmca@dracobyte.pro)
Attention: DMCA Agent, Dracobyte LLC
Mailing Address: Dracobyte LLC, Illinois, USA. For service of process, contact support@dracobyte.pro to obtain the current registered mailing address.
Email: dmca@dracobyte.pro
The designated agent information must be kept current with the U.S. Copyright Office. Under 37 C.F.R. 201.38, the designation must be renewed every three years, and any material change (name, address, email) must be filed with the Office within thirty days. See 17 U.S.C. 512(c)(2) and the Copyright Office's Directory of Designated Agents.
2. How to Submit a DMCA Takedown Notice
To be effective under the DMCA, your written notice must include all of the following. Failure to include any of these items may delay or invalidate the notice.
- A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple works at a single site are covered by a single notice, a representative list of those works.
- Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (for example, server address, world file path, or web URL).
- Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address.
- A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
3. Action We Will Take
On receiving a facially valid DMCA notice, we will:
- Acknowledge receipt and log the notice.
- Expeditiously remove or disable access to the material identified in the notice.
- Take reasonable steps to notify the affected subscriber of the removal and of the counter-notice process.
- Forward a copy of the notice to the subscriber, with the complainant's contact information preserved as required by the DMCA.
4. Counter-Notice Procedure
If you believe that content you posted was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written counter-notice. To be effective under the DMCA, the counter-notice must include:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled.
- A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.
- Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the address is located, or if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which the service provider may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification.
Send counter-notices to the designated agent contact listed in Section 1. On receipt, we will forward the counter-notice to the original complainant and, unless the complainant notifies us that a court action has been filed, we will restore the material in not less than ten and not more than fourteen business days after receipt of the counter-notice.
5. Repeat Infringer Policy
In appropriate circumstances, we will terminate the accounts of subscribers and account holders who are repeat infringers. We maintain internal records of DMCA notices and counter-notices for this purpose. Three substantiated infringements within a twelve-month period will be treated as a rebuttable presumption of repeat infringement and will ordinarily result in account termination, subject to our review of the circumstances.
6. Misrepresentations
Under 17 U.S.C. Section 512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing, or that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be subject to liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.
7. Trademark and Other IP Complaints
This policy is specific to copyright. If you believe the Service is being used to infringe your trademark, publicity, or other non-copyright rights, please email legal@dracobyte.pro with a detailed description and supporting evidence.
8. Changes
We may update this DMCA Policy to reflect changes in law or operational practice. Material changes will be posted and the designated agent will be kept current with the U.S. Copyright Office.
