Copyright notices and counter-notices.
If you own the copyright in something posted on MemeSwap without your permission, tell us and we will take it down. If your own video was removed by mistake, you can tell us that too.
Designated agent
Agent not yet set. MemeSwap has not yet registered a designated agent with the United States Copyright Office. Use the form below in the meantime. Your notice is recorded, it starts our clock, and we act on it exactly as we would once the agent is registered.
What happens after you send a notice
- You get a reference number straight away.
- We aim to act within 72 hours.
- If we remove the video, we tell the person who posted it, and we tell them they can send a counter-notice.
- If they send one, we tell you. Under United States law the video can go back up after 10 business days unless you tell us you have gone to court.
If your video was removed by mistake
Send a counter-notice by filling in the same form and writing "counter-notice" as the first word of the description. Say why you believe the removal was a mistake. A counter-notice is a legal document and a false one has consequences, so be accurate.
Repeat infringers
We end the accounts of people who repeatedly post other people's work without permission. In practice: a valid copyright notice against you is a strike, three active strikes suspends your account for 30 days, four for 90 days, and five ends it. Strikes expire, and you can appeal any of them in the app. This policy is a legal condition of the protection we rely on, and we apply it.
Our contact for these requests
Contact not yet set. MemeSwap has not yet published a named contact for removal requests. Until it does, send your request through the form on this page, which reaches the people who can act on it, or email [email protected]. Your request is recorded and the clock starts either way.
Knowingly sending a false notice has consequences under 17 U.S.C. 512(f), including paying the other side's costs.
