The Digital Millennium Copyright Act is a United States federal law. It has no binding authority outside U.S. borders unless a country has signed an equivalent treaty and enacted local legislation to enforce it. Our servers operate in European jurisdictions that do not recognize or enforce DMCA takedown notices.
When a DMCA complaint arrives at our abuse desk, we review it for informational purposes but take no automated action. No server suspension, no content removal, no account termination. If the complaint involves a legitimate legal issue under local law, we notify you and provide time to respond. Otherwise, it goes in the bin.
This approach protects archival projects, media libraries, research platforms, and any content that might attract frivolous copyright claims. You build your project on a stable foundation, knowing that a complaint email will not erase months of work overnight.
