Notices we forward

DMCA Relay acts as the designated DMCA agent for the sites and services we serve. Because forwarding notices is the core of what we do, the following applies:

  • DMCA Notifications. If you submit a DMCA takedown notification for a site or service we act as DMCA agent for, you agree that the full contents of your notification — including your contact information — will be forwarded to that site or service’s owner or operator.
  • DMCA Counter-Notifications. If you submit a counter-notification in response to a DMCA notification, you agree that the full contents of your counter-notification — including your contact information — will be forwarded to the party who filed the original notification (the alleged copyright owner or their agent).

We forward notices and counter-notifications because the law requires the parties involved to be able to identify and, where necessary, pursue further action against one another. We don’t forward any information beyond what’s contained in the notice or counter-notification itself.

What’s public, and what isn’t

The U.S. Copyright Office’s DMCA designated agent directory is a public record. When we register you, the following information is published there:

  • The company name (the legal entity you enter during registration) that operates your site or service, and
  • The domain name(s) or subdomain(s) covered by our service for that entity.

Everything else about you as a site owner or operator stays private. We list our own contact information as the designated agent of record — never yours. Your personal name and contact information (email, phone number, and mailing address) are never made public, and are never disclosed to the party who filed a DMCA notification or counter-notification, or to anyone else, except where required by law (for example, in response to a valid subpoena or court order).

If you have questions about how a specific notice was handled, contact us.
