Feetify.co (“we”, “us”, “our”) respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects visitors to do the same. This policy explains how to notify us of alleged copyright infringement on feetify.co (the “Site”) under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), 17 U.S.C. § 512, and how to submit a counter-notification.
What this policy covers
The Site is an independent guide that publishes its own articles, guides and FAQ content. It does not host user-uploaded content, offer user accounts or host any adult content. If you believe that text, an image or any other material published on feetify.co uses your copyrighted work without permission, this policy explains what to do.
Content on the Feetify marketplace or other websites
We cannot remove content from the Feetify platform. Feetify is a separate marketplace (currently hosted at app.feetfinder.com) that is not owned or operated by us. If you believe your photos, videos or other content are being sold or shared on the platform without your permission, please report it directly to the platform using its own reporting or copyright-complaint process. The same applies to content on any other website: contact that website’s operator or its hosting provider.
How to submit a copyright notice
Send your notice through our contact page and choose “Copyright / DMCA” as the subject. To be effective under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), your notice must include:
- a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or of a person authorised to act on their behalf (typing your full legal name is acceptable as an electronic signature);
- identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed — or, if a single notice covers several works, a representative list of them;
- identification of the material you claim is infringing and want removed, with information reasonably sufficient for us to locate it — ideally the exact URL(s) on feetify.co;
- information reasonably sufficient for us to contact you, such as your name, postal address, telephone number and email address;
- a statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and
- a statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorised to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
Please include all of this in the message field. We may contact you at the email address you provide if we need more information. Notices that do not substantially comply with these requirements may not be acted on.
Before you submit
Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), anyone who knowingly and materially misrepresents that material is infringing — or that material was removed by mistake — may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees. Please consider whether the use might be permitted, for example as fair use (such as a brief quotation for commentary or review). If you are unsure whether your rights are being infringed, consider getting legal advice first.
What happens next
When we receive a valid notice, we will review it and, where appropriate, promptly remove or disable access to the material identified. If the material was provided by someone else — for example, a guest contributor — we may notify them and give them a copy of the notice (which may include your contact details) so they can respond.
Counter-notification
If material you provided was removed and you believe this happened because of a mistake or misidentification, you may send us a counter-notification through our contact page, again choosing “Copyright / DMCA” as the subject. Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3), it must include:
- your physical or electronic signature;
- identification of the material that was removed or to which access was disabled, and the location (such as the URL) where it appeared before it was removed or disabled;
- a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material; and
- your name, address and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the US Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if your address is outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notice or their agent.
When we receive a valid counter-notification, we may forward it to the person who submitted the original notice. We may then restore the material no sooner than 10 and no later than 14 business days after receiving the counter-notification, unless we first receive notice that the original complainant has filed a court action seeking to restrain the alleged infringement.
Repeat infringers
The Site does not offer user accounts, and visitors cannot upload content. Where we publish material from contributors, we will, in appropriate circumstances, stop accepting contributions from — and remove material provided by — anyone who repeatedly infringes the copyrights of others. We may also stop linking to websites that are repeatedly the subject of valid infringement notices.
Other intellectual property concerns
If you have a concern about a trademark or another intellectual property right, please contact us with the details and we will review it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.
