Filing a Takedown Notice

If you believe that content on BrikSnap infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our designated agent containing all of the following:

1. Identification of the copyrighted work — describe or provide a link to the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed. If multiple works are covered by a single notice, provide a representative list.
2. Identification of the infringing material — provide the specific URL(s) on BrikSnap where the infringing material appears, with enough detail for us to locate it.
3. Your contact information — your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
4. Good faith statement — a statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
5. Accuracy statement — a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf.
6. Signature — your physical or electronic signature.

⚠️ Knowingly submitting a false DMCA notice may expose you to liability for damages, costs, and attorney fees under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).

What Happens After a Notice

Upon receipt of a valid, complete takedown notice, we will:

1. Remove or disable access to the identified material promptly
2. Notify the user who submitted the content (if applicable) that their content has been removed
3. Provide that user with a copy of the takedown notice (with your contact details, as required by law)

Filing a Counter-Notice

If you believe your content was removed in error or as a result of a mistaken or misidentified takedown notice, you may submit a counter-notice to our designated agent containing:

1. Identification of the removed material — describe the content that was removed and where it appeared on BrikSnap before removal.
2. Statement under penalty of perjury — a statement that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
3. Your contact information — your full legal name, address, telephone number, and email address.
4. Consent to jurisdiction — a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your district (or, if outside the US, any judicial district in which BrikSnap may be found) and that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original takedown notice.
5. Signature — your physical or electronic signature.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notice, we will forward it to the original complainant and may restore the removed content within 10–14 business days unless the complainant notifies us they have filed a court action.

Repeat Infringers

BrikSnap will terminate the accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances, consistent with 17 U.S.C. § 512(i).

Note on BrikSnap's Content Model

BrikSnap does not host instruction PDFs or copyrighted documents on its own servers. The platform links to instruction documents hosted on brand servers or authorized sources. If a linked URL points to infringing content on a third-party server, the appropriate action is to submit a takedown notice directly to that hosting provider. BrikSnap can remove the link from our index upon request.
