Information
DMCA Policy
Copyright notice-and-takedown information for material displayed or linked by AdultRankly.
Site operator
AdultRankly is operated and published under the AdultRankly name. General, legal, privacy, and rights-related correspondence may be sent to [email protected]. No separate company name is presented on this site unless and until the operator publishes one that can be stated accurately.
Scope
AdultRankly respects copyright and reviews sufficiently detailed notices concerning material displayed by AdultRankly or links controlled by AdultRankly. Because AdultRankly is a directory, a complaint about material hosted by an independent destination may also need to be sent to that destination or its hosting provider.
What a copyright notice should contain
A notice should include a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act for the owner of the exclusive right; identification of the copyrighted work, or a representative list where appropriate; identification and location information for the material or link claimed to infringe; contact information for the complaining party; a good-faith statement that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and a statement that the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the sender is authorized to act for the owner.
Handling a sufficiently complete notice
AdultRankly may remove or disable access to identified material or links when a sufficiently complete notice supports that action. If important notice information is missing but the work, disputed material, and sender can be identified, AdultRankly may request the information needed to evaluate the notice rather than treating an incomplete message as a complete statutory notice.
Counter-notification
Where the DMCA counter-notification process applies, a person affected by removal may provide the information required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g), including identification of the removed material and its former location, a statement under penalty of perjury that the material was removed or disabled because of mistake or misidentification, the required name and contact information, consent to the applicable federal-court jurisdiction, acceptance of service from the original complaining party or that party's agent, and a physical or electronic signature.
Repeat infringement and abuse
Where applicable to AdultRankly's role as an online service provider, the operator may terminate or restrict access for repeat infringement in appropriate circumstances. Knowingly material misrepresentations in a copyright notice or counter-notification can carry legal consequences.
Copyright intake contact
Copyright notices and counter-notifications may be sent to [email protected]. This email is the site's published intake route; it should not be read as a representation that email publication alone satisfies every requirement for DMCA safe-harbor eligibility.
Designated-agent requirements
A service provider seeking applicable DMCA safe-harbor protection may need to publish the required designated-agent contact information and register that agent with the U.S. Copyright Office. The public agent information can require details beyond an email address. AdultRankly should not claim designated-agent compliance unless those requirements have actually been completed and can be verified.
Legal review
This policy is written as general operational information, not legal advice or a representation that counsel has approved the site's DMCA status. The operator should obtain qualified legal advice for its specific jurisdiction, business structure, hosting model, and safe-harbor strategy where needed.
