DMCA / Copyright Policy

How we handle copyright, and how to submit a takedown notice for content you believe infringes your rights.

Effective date: REPLACE_WITH_LAUNCH_DATE_E.G._2026-08-05
Before you launch: the designated-agent details below must be accurate, and — for full §512 safe-harbor protection — the same name/address/email must also be registered with the U.S. Copyright Office's Designated Agent Directory. This page is a template, not legal advice; have an attorney review it before launch.

Our approach to copyright

Reelhouse publishes video content that our administrators have sourced under licenses we believe permit hosting and redistribution on this platform. We are not an open public-upload platform — content is added by our administrators, not by anonymous members of the public — but mistakes and licensing disputes can still happen, and we respond to valid notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. §512.

Notice-and-takedown process

If you believe content on Reelhouse infringes your copyright, you (or your authorized representative) may submit a notice using the form below, or by emailing our designated agent directly. A valid notice must include:

  1. identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed;
  2. the exact URL of the video on Reelhouse you claim is infringing;
  3. your name, and contact information (at minimum, an email address) sufficient for us to contact you;
  4. a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
  5. a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf; and
  6. your physical or electronic signature.

The form below collects all of these elements. Once submitted, we review the notice and, where it's valid and the claim appears well-founded, remove or disable access to the identified video. We will update the status of your notice as we process it (pending → reviewed → removed/rejected/resolved).

Counter-notification

If content you posted or that you believe was removed in error was taken down in response to a DMCA notice, you may submit a counter-notification via our Contact page (select "Legal" as the topic). A valid counter-notification must identify the removed material and its former location, include a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification, include your consent to the jurisdiction of the applicable federal district court, and include your physical or electronic signature. We may restore the material after the process required by 17 U.S.C. §512(g), unless the original claimant files a court action first.

Repeat-infringer response

Because Reelhouse publishes content added by our administrators from licensed sources rather than through open public uploads, our repeat-infringer response is to permanently stop sourcing content from any provider or licensor associated with repeated, credible infringement claims, and to promptly remove any video subject to a valid takedown notice. If this platform's model changes to allow public uploads, this policy will be updated to include an account-termination process for repeat infringers as required by 17 U.S.C. §512(i).
