What Qualifies as a Valid DMCA Notice?

Under Section 512(c)(3) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, a valid takedown notice must include: (1) a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or an authorised agent; (2) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed; (3) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing, with enough information to permit us to locate it; (4) contact information including your address, telephone number, and email address; (5) a statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (6) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on behalf of the owner.

Our Verification Process

Before listing any book, we verify its public domain status through Project Gutenberg, which has been carefully verifying copyright status for over 70,000 titles since 1971. In the United States, works published before January 1, 1928 are generally in the public domain. Works published between 1928 and 1977 may be in the public domain depending on whether copyright was registered and renewed.

If you believe we have made an error about a specific work's copyright status, please provide us with specific legal documentation supporting your claim. We take all such claims seriously and will investigate promptly. Upon receiving a valid, complete DMCA notice, we will remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing content within 5 business days while we investigate.

If you believe content was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification to us containing: (1) your signature; (2) identification of the material removed and the location where it appeared; (3) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief the material was removed by mistake; and (4) your name, address, and telephone number.
