Submit a Copyright (DMCA) Notice

Before you submit

A takedown notice is a serious legal statement. Before filing, consider whether the use you are reporting is actually infringing. Some uses are permitted under fair dealing (Canada and other Commonwealth jurisdictions), fair use (United States), or comparable exceptions for criticism, commentary, news reporting, research, parody, or education. If the use may be lawful, a takedown may be inappropriate.

If the material you are concerned about is AI-generated, please also review the AI Disclosure & Synthetic Media Statement, which explains how Nestbitt's outputs are produced and the limits of ownership in them.

What to include in a takedown notice

Your notice must include substantially all of the following information so we can act on it:

1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or a representative list, if multiple works are covered by one notice).
3. Identification of the allegedly infringing material and information reasonably sufficient to locate it — the URL, generation ID, or other specific location on Nestbitt.
4. Your contact information: full name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and — under penalty of perjury — that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.

How to submit

Send your completed notice to our Designated Copyright Agent by email at dmca@nestbitt.com, or by mail to:

Nestbitt Inc., Attn: Copyright Agent, Suite C, 16644 - 71 St, Edmonton, AB. T5Z 0N5, Canada

Email is the fastest route and is always accepted. Mailed notices are processed when received.

What happens next

• We review the notice to confirm it includes the required information. Incomplete notices may be returned for correction.
• If the notice is valid, we remove or disable access to the identified material in appropriate circumstances.
• We notify the user who provided the material that it has been removed in response to a copyright notice, and we may share a copy of your notice with them.
• The affected user may submit a counter-notice. If they do, we may forward it to you and, absent a court action, may restore the material in 10 to 14 business days.
• Repeated infringement is recorded under our strike-based repeat-infringer policy.

If your material was removed (counter-notice)

If your content was removed and you believe that was a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notice to the same Designated Copyright Agent. A counter-notice must include substantially all of the following:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material that was removed or disabled, and the location at which it appeared before removal.
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Your full name, mailing address, and telephone number, plus a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the district where you are located (or, if outside the United States, any district where Nestbitt may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the party who filed the original notice.

Submit a counter-notice to dmca@nestbitt.com.
