DMCA Notice-and-Takedown Policy

1. Our Commitment

YourLabel respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of the Platform to do the same. YourLabel LLC is not a United States entity; nonetheless, we voluntarily follow a notice-and-takedown process modelled on the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), designed also to satisfy the notice-and-action requirements of Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (Digital Services Act) and Directive (EU) 2019/790, for all copyright complaints regardless of the complainant’s or the user’s location, in order to provide a single, clear, and consistent process worldwide.

2. How to Submit a Copyright Complaint

If you believe content available on the Platform infringes your copyright, you can file a report in either of the following ways.

Alternatively, send a written notice to [email protected] containing:

• Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed (or a representative list).
• Identification of the infringing material with a URL or other information sufficient to locate it.
• Your name, address, telephone number, and email.
• A good-faith statement that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
• A statement under penalty of perjury that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.
• Your physical or electronic signature.

3. Our Process Upon Receipt of a Valid Notice

We will review the notice and, where facially valid, remove or disable access to the identified content within 5 business days, or sooner where practicable. We will notify the uploading user, provide a copy of the notice (redacted of sensitive contact details at our discretion), and inform them of the right to counter-notify. Royalties attributable to the removed content will be held pursuant to Terms of Service Section 7.6 and the Distribution Agreement pending resolution.

4. Counter-Notification

If you are the uploading user and believe your content was removed in error or misidentification, submit a counter-notification to [email protected] containing:

• Identification of the removed material and its prior location.
• A statement under penalty of perjury of your good-faith belief that removal resulted from mistake or misidentification.
• Your name, address, and telephone number.
• A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the courts identified in Terms of Service Section 14.4 (and, where the arbitration agreement in Terms of Service Section 14.3 applies, to arbitration as set out there), and that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notice.
• Your physical or electronic signature.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification we will forward it to the original complainant. Unless the complainant informs us within 10 business days that they have initiated legal action to restrain the allegedly infringing activity, we may restore the content.

5. Account Restriction and Repeat Infringers

One claim is enough. YourLabel does not operate a three-strike or other repeat-infringer threshold before restricting an account. A singlecopyright claim against any one of your releases — whether it reaches us as a notice under this Policy, as a claim, block or strike from a store or from a store’s automated content-recognition or rights-management system, or as a complaint from a rights holder, publisher or collecting society — puts your account into a Restricted state and suspends payment of the entire balance of your account, not only the earnings of the release concerned. A Restricted account is not deleted: you keep your login and can still see your catalogue, your statements and your balance, but you cannot upload, cannot edit any data, and cannot withdraw money.

You have ten (10) business days from the date we send you notice of the claim to contest it, in writing and with your supporting evidence, at [email protected]. If you do not contest within that period, or if your evidence does not establish your rights, the restriction stays indefinitely and all of your releases are withdrawn from all stores, with the retention, set-off and recovery consequences described in Section 11 of the Distribution Agreement and in Terms of Service Section 11.1. If you contest successfully, the restriction is lifted and your balance is released.

This policy is stricter than the repeat-infringer policy that a service provider is required to adopt and reasonably implement under 17 U.S.C. § 512(i), and it satisfies that requirement. Nothing in this Section limits your separate right to submit a statutory counter-notification under Section 4, which runs independently of the ten-business-day period above.
