DMCA Copyright Policy

Effective date: October 21, 2026 · Last updated: October 21, 2026

1. Copyright complaints

If you own a copyright, or are authorized to act for the owner, and believe material available through BONOBONO infringes that copyright, send a written notice containing all of the information below. A clear and complete notice helps us locate and review the material promptly.

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed. If one notice covers multiple works on BONOBONO, provide a representative list.
3. The exact BONOBONO page URL for each item you want removed or disabled, together with enough information to locate it. A general reference to the home page or a category is not sufficient.
4. Your full name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed 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 are authorized to act for the owner.

Please identify the original work and explain the relationship between that work and the reported BONOBONO URL. Screenshots may help identify a page, but do not replace an exact URL.

2. Where to send a notice

This contact is the operational channel for copyright notices. BONOBONO does not describe it as a U.S. Copyright Office registered designated agent unless and until that registration and the required public contact details have been completed.

3. Review and removal

BONOBONO may ask for missing information when a notice is incomplete. When a notice substantially satisfies the applicable requirements, BONOBONO may remove or disable access to the identified material and may notify the affected account or content provider. BONOBONO may terminate accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

Removal from BONOBONO does not remove the same material from an independent third-party site. A separate notice may need to be sent to that site or its hosting provider.

4. Counter-notice

If your material was removed or disabled because of a copyright notice and you believe the action resulted from mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice containing:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material removed or disabled and the BONOBONO location where it appeared before removal.
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification.
4. Your name, address, and telephone number.
5. A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the appropriate United States Federal District Court as described in 17 U.S.C. § 512(g), and accepting service of process from the original claimant or the claimant’s agent.

Where the statutory counter-notice procedure applies, BONOBONO may forward the counter-notice to the original claimant and may restore the material between 10 and 14 business days after receipt unless the claimant gives notice of a filed court action seeking to restrain the disputed activity.

5. Accuracy, privacy, and misuse

Information in a notice or counter-notice may be shared with the person who provided the affected material, the claimant, service providers, or legal authorities as needed to process the request. Do not include information unrelated to the claim.

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), a person who knowingly makes a material misrepresentation that material is infringing, or that material was removed by mistake, may be liable for resulting damages. Consider obtaining legal advice before submitting a notice or counter-notice.

6. Other rights

This process is for copyright claims. Privacy, impersonation, non-consensual imagery, and other safety concerns should be submitted through the contact form. Suspected child sexual abuse material must be reported through the Reporting CSAM page.
