- Identification of the copyrighted work
- Identification and URL of the allegedly infringing material
- Explanation of the alleged infringement
- Good-faith statement

Complete notices can generally be reviewed more efficiently than incomplete submissions.
7. Review of Copyright Notices
After receiving a sufficiently complete copyright notice, we may:
- Review the identified material
- Review the claimant's information
- Request additional information
- Identify the relevant webpage or product
- Contact the party responsible for the disputed content
- Remove or disable access to material where appropriate
- Maintain records relating to the complaint
Actions taken during review do not necessarily constitute a final legal determination regarding copyright ownership or infringement.
8. Incomplete Notices
We may request additional information if a notice does not contain sufficient information to evaluate the claim.
Examples include:
- Missing URLs
- Missing copyright identification
- Missing contact information
- Missing required statements
- Missing signature
- Unclear ownership
- Insufficient explanation of the alleged infringement
The review process may be delayed until sufficient information is provided.
9. Removal or Disabling of Material
Where appropriate, we may remove or disable access to material that is the subject of a sufficiently supported copyright infringement notice.
We may also notify the affected content provider or other relevant party of the action.
Removal or restriction during the complaint process does not necessarily mean that we admit liability or determine conclusively that infringement occurred.
10. Counter-Notification
If material you provided was removed or disabled because of a copyright infringement notice and you believe the material was removed because of mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification where applicable.
A counter-notification should be sent to:
Email: [email protected]

A counter-notification should include:
A. Your Identification
Provide:

Include a statement substantially similar to:
"I state, under penalty of perjury, that I 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."

Where required by applicable law, include the appropriate statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the relevant United States federal district court and accepting service of process from the person who submitted the original copyright notice or that person's agent.
E. Signature
Include your physical or electronic signature.
12. Counter-Notification Review
After receiving a valid counter-notification, we may provide a copy to the original claimant where appropriate.
Where applicable legal requirements are satisfied, removed material may be restored unless the original claimant timely notifies the appropriate party that legal action has been filed seeking to restrain the allegedly infringing activity.
The timing and handling of counter-notifications may depend on applicable law and the circumstances of the claim.
13. Restoration of Material
Material removed because of a copyright notice will not automatically be restored.
Restoration may depend on factors such as:
- Receipt of a legally sufficient counter-notification
- Applicable statutory waiting periods
- Whether the original claimant initiates legal proceedings
- Whether another valid legal basis requires continued removal
14. Repeat Infringement
Where appropriate and legally required, we may take reasonable measures concerning users, suppliers, content sources, or other parties associated with repeated copyright infringement.
Such measures may include:
- Removal of disputed material
- Restrictions on content
- Discontinuation of content sources
- Review of supplier relationships
- Other reasonable action appropriate to the circumstances
15. Misrepresentation in Copyright Notices
Copyright notices and counter-notifications should be submitted carefully and truthfully.
Knowingly making material misrepresentations concerning copyright infringement or removal may result in liability under applicable law.
Do not submit a claim if you know that:
- You do not own the asserted copyright
- You are not authorized to act for the owner
- The identified material is not the material in question
- The notice contains knowingly false statements
16. Good-Faith Claims
We encourage copyright owners and authorized representatives to submit accurate, specific, and complete notices.
A copyright complaint should identify the actual material at issue rather than requesting broad removal of unrelated content.
17. Authorized Representatives
An attorney, licensing agent, rights-management organization, or other authorized representative may submit a notice on behalf of a copyright owner.
The representative should identify:
- The copyright owner
- Their relationship to the copyright owner
- Their authority to submit the complaint
We may request evidence of authorization where appropriate.
18. Copyright Registration Information
A copyright registration number is helpful where available but may not be required for every complaint.
Where registration exists, please provide:
- Registration number
- Registration date
- Registration jurisdiction
- Registered owner
The claimant remains responsible for accurately identifying the rights being asserted.
19. Image and Photography Copyright Claims
For photographs or images, please provide where available:
- Original image
- Original publication URL
- Source file
- Publication date
- Photographer name
- Copyright owner
- Registration information
- URL where the disputed image appears on chantcds.com
This information can help us compare the works and evaluate the claim.
20. Written Content Claims
If your claim involves text, descriptions, articles, or other written materials, identify:
- Original work
- Original publication
- Relevant copied portion
- URL of allegedly infringing content
- Evidence of ownership where applicable
Please identify the specific content at issue rather than submitting a general complaint concerning an entire website.
21. Product Content and Suppliers
Some product-related content may be obtained from suppliers, licensors, or other authorized sources.
If a copyright claim concerns supplier-provided material, we may:
- Review the source of the content
- Contact the relevant supplier
- Request evidence of authorization
- Remove or replace content where appropriate
22. Licensed Content
Material may sometimes be used under:
- A license
- Written authorization
- Supplier permission
- Contractual authorization
- Another lawful basis
If a valid authorization applies, the existence of similar copyrighted material elsewhere does not necessarily establish infringement.
23. Fair Use and Other Legal Exceptions
Copyright law may permit certain uses of copyrighted works without the copyright owner's authorization.
Whether a particular use qualifies for an exception depends on the applicable facts and law.
Claimants should consider applicable limitations and exceptions before submitting a copyright complaint.
24. Privacy of Copyright Complaints
Information submitted in copyright notices or counter-notifications may be used to:
- Investigate the complaint
- Communicate with the claimant
- Communicate with the affected content provider
- Maintain legal records
- Respond to lawful requests
- Comply with applicable legal obligations
Where legally appropriate, information in a complaint or counter-notification may be shared with the opposing party.
Personal information is otherwise handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
25. Confidential and Sensitive Information
Do not submit unnecessary:
- Payment card information
- Passwords
- Government identification numbers
- Medical information
- Other highly sensitive personal data
Provide only information reasonably necessary to support the copyright claim.
26. Third-Party Platforms
Some functionality or content connected to our website may involve independent third-party platforms or providers.
Where the disputed content is controlled entirely by a third party, the claimant may also need to use that third party's copyright reporting process.
27. No Admission of Liability
Our receipt, review, removal, restriction, restoration, or rejection of disputed material does not constitute an admission that Chantcds or any other person has infringed copyright.
The purpose of this policy is to provide a structured process for addressing copyright complaints.
28. No Legal Advice
Information in this policy is provided for procedural and informational purposes.
It is not legal advice.
Copyright owners, accused content providers, and other affected parties may wish to obtain independent legal advice regarding their rights and obligations.
