Quiky DMCA Policy

Effective Date: January 6, 2026
Last Updated: January 6, 2026

Quiky (“Quiky,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects the intellectual property rights of creators, rights holders, and users, and expects all users of the Quiky platform to do the same. This Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) Policy describes how we respond to copyright infringement claims and how users may submit counter‑notifications under 17 U.S.C. §512 (the “DMCA”).​

Use of Quiky is subject to this DMCA Policy, our Terms and Conditions, and Community Guidelines.

1. Designated Copyright Agent

In accordance with the DMCA, Quiky has designated the following agent to receive notifications of claimed copyright infringement:

Designated DMCA Agent
Quiky – Legal/DMCA
Email: [email protected]
Backup Email: [email protected]

This contact information is for copyright matters only. Non‑copyright issues (e.g., harassment, privacy, or other policy violations) should be reported via in‑app tools or support channels.

2. Submitting a DMCA Takedown Notice (Rights Holders)

If you believe that content on Quiky infringes your copyright, you (or your authorized agent) may submit a written DMCA Notice to our Designated Agent. To be effective under 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3), your Notice must include all of the following:​

1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.

2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works.

3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to permit Quiky to locate the material on the platform (e.g., URL(s), username, post ID, date/time, screenshots).

4. Sufficient contact information for the complaining party, such as full name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.

5. A statement that the complaining party has a good‑faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is the copyright owner or is authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.​

You may send the completed Notice to: [email protected].

Important:

• Incomplete notices may be rejected or delayed until all required elements are provided.​

• Misrepresenting that material is infringing may expose you to liability for damages, including costs and attorney’s fees, under 17 U.S.C. §512(f).​

• Quiky does not provide legal advice. You should consult an attorney if you are unsure whether your rights are being infringed.

3. Quiky’s Response to Valid DMCA Notices

Upon receipt of a valid DMCA Notice that substantially complies with §512(c)(3), Quiky will:​

• Promptly remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material.

• Notify the user who posted the material (“Uploader”) that the content has been removed or disabled, including the substance of the Notice (excluding personal contact details where required by law).

• Record the Notice for internal tracking and potential repeat‑infringer evaluation (see Section 6).

Where appropriate, Quiky may also:

• Suspend the Uploader’s ability to upload new content pending investigation; or

• Request additional information from the complaining party or Uploader to clarify the claim.

Removal or disabling of access is not an admission by Quiky that the material is infringing, nor does it constitute legal determination of infringement.

4. Submitting a DMCA Counter‑Notification (Uploaders)

If your content on Quiky has been removed or disabled due to a DMCA Notice and you believe this removal is a mistake or that you are authorized to use the material (for example, through a license, fair use, or because you are the copyright owner), you may submit a DMCA Counter‑Notification.​

To be effective, your Counter‑Notification must include all of the following:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.

2. Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled (e.g., URL, username, post ID, date/time).

3. 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 to be removed or disabled.​

4. Your full name, physical address, telephone number, and email address.

5. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of:

   • The Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, if you are in the United States; or

   • The Federal District Court for the Central District of California (or another appropriate district) if your address is outside the United States.​

6. A statement that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original DMCA Notice or that person’s agent.​

Send your Counter‑Notification to: [email protected].

Warning:
Submitting a false Counter‑Notification may expose you to liability for damages, including costs and attorney’s fees, under 17 U.S.C. §512(f). Only submit a Counter‑Notification if you genuinely believe, in good faith, that your content was removed due to mistake or misidentification.​

5. Quiky’s Response to Valid Counter‑Notifications

When Quiky receives a valid Counter‑Notification, we will:​

1. Forward a copy of the Counter‑Notification to the original complaining party.

2. Inform the complaining party that Quiky intends to restore the removed or disabled material after not less than 10 and not more than 14 business days, unless we receive notice that the complaining party has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material.​

3. Restore access to the material within this time window if we do not receive notice of court action from the complaining party.

Quiky may decide, at its discretion, not to restore content if:

• We reasonably believe the content is clearly infringing;

• There are ongoing legal proceedings clearly prohibiting restoration; or

• Other platform policies (e.g., Community Guidelines, Terms and Conditions, or safety rules) justify continued removal.

6. Repeat Infringer Policy

In compliance with the DMCA, Quiky has adopted and reasonably implements a policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, users who are repeat infringers.​

A “repeat infringer” is any user or account that:

• Is the subject of two or more valid DMCA Notices (or equivalent copyright complaints) within a rolling twelve (12) month period; or

• Repeatedly uploads or reposts content that has previously been removed following a DMCA Notice; or

• Engages in a pattern of infringing activity that demonstrates disregard for copyright law and Quiky’s policies.​

Consequences for repeat infringers may include, without limitation:

• Warnings and mandatory copyright education

• Temporary suspension of posting or upload privileges

• Temporary account suspension

• Permanent termination of the account and any related accounts

Quiky also reserves the right to disable access to content proactively where we reasonably believe it may infringe third‑party rights, even if we have not yet received a formal DMCA Notice (e.g., “red flag” knowledge).​

7. Misuse of the DMCA Process

Both DMCA Notices and Counter‑Notifications are legal documents that carry consequences if misused. Quiky may take action against users who knowingly submit false, misleading, or bad‑faith DMCA Notices or Counter‑Notifications, including:​

• Suspending or terminating accounts involved in repeated false claims

• Reporting abusive behavior to relevant authorities or platforms

• Seeking legal remedies where appropriate

Users are strongly encouraged to consult an attorney before sending a DMCA Notice or Counter‑Notification if they are uncertain about their rights.

8. Safe Harbor and No Legal Advice

Quiky is an “online service provider” entitled to DMCA safe harbor protections, provided we comply with the notice‑and‑takedown procedures and repeat‑infringer policy described in this DMCA Policy.​

Nothing in this Policy constitutes legal advice. Quiky expressly disclaims any responsibility for providing legal opinions or guaranteeing any particular outcome in connection with DMCA Notices, Counter‑Notifications, or copyright disputes.

All disputes regarding underlying copyright ownership or validity must be resolved between the parties (rights holder and Uploader), typically through negotiation or court proceedings. Quiky is not a party to such disputes.

9. Policy Modifications

Quiky may update or modify this DMCA Policy at any time to reflect changes in law, best practices, or our internal processes. Any changes will be effective upon posting the revised Policy on this page with an updated “Last Updated” date.​

Where appropriate, we may also:

• Provide in‑app notice of significant changes; or

• Notify users by email.

Your continued use of Quiky after any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised DMCA Policy.
