DMCA Notice
How to report claimed copyright infringement to Kastvio, and how we handle it.
Last updated: 15 September 2026
Our position on copyright
Kastvio respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. We respond to clear, properly submitted notices of claimed infringement in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512).
We also maintain a repeat infringer policy: accounts associated with repeated, substantiated claims are terminated.
How to submit a notice
Your contact details
Your full name, mailing address, telephone number and email address, and whether you are the rights holder or authorised to act on their behalf.
The work you own
Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed. If your notice covers multiple works, a representative list of them.
Where the material is
Identification of the material you claim is infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it — a channel name, listing or reference, not just a general description.
The two required statements
A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorised by the rights holder, its agent or the law; and a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the rights holder or authorised to act for them.
Your signature
A physical or electronic signature of the rights holder or of the person authorised to act on their behalf.
What happens next
We acknowledge receipt, review the notice for completeness, and act on it where it is valid — which may include removing or disabling access to the material identified and notifying the affected user.
Incomplete notices are the most common reason for delay. If anything required is missing we will tell you what it is so you can resubmit.
A warning about false claims
Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), anyone who knowingly makes a material misrepresentation that material is infringing — or that it was removed by mistake — may be liable for damages, including costs and legal fees. Please be certain before you file.
Counter-notification
If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you may send us a counter-notification. It must include:
Your details and signature
Your name, address, telephone number, email address and signature, physical or electronic.
What was removed
Identification of the material that was removed or disabled, and the location where it appeared before removal.
Your statement
A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
Consent to jurisdiction
A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for the district where you live (or, if you are outside the United States, any district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the party who filed the original notice.
On receipt of a valid counter-notice we forward it to the original complainant. If they do not notify us within 10 business days that they have filed an action seeking a court order, we may restore the material.
Send your notice
Submit your notice through our contact form, marking the subject clearly as a DMCA notice. Include every element listed above — a notice missing any of them cannot be acted on.
