DMCA & copyright policy

What to include in a notice

A valid takedown notice under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) must include the following, in writing:

1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner (or an authorised agent).
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed.
3. The URL(s) on workers.dev where the material appears, in enough detail for us to locate it.
4. Your contact information — a mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
5. A statement, made in good faith, that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are authorised to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Where to send it

Email the notice to dmca@workers.dev. Notices sent to any other address will be forwarded to that inbox and may be delayed.

What happens next

On receipt of a valid notice we will remove or disable access to the material identified, usually within 5 business days. We will also make a good-faith effort to notify anyone whose content was removed so they can submit a counter-notice if appropriate.

Counter-notices

If you believe your content was removed in error, you may submit a counter-notice to the same address. It must contain the elements required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3). If we receive a valid counter-notice we will restore the content unless the original claimant files a court action within 10 business days.

Repeat infringers

We terminate site access, in appropriate circumstances, for anyone who is a repeat infringer.
