DMCA Notice & Takedown

A Custom Name respects the rights of artists, designers and other creators. If you believe that a design, image or text shown on acustomname.com uses your copyrighted work without permission, you can ask us to remove it under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).

Sending a takedown notice

Email your notice to support@acustomname.com with the subject line “DMCA Notice”. To let us act quickly, please include:

  1. Your full name and contact details (email address, plus postal address and phone number if you wish).
  2. A description of the copyrighted work you believe is being used.
  3. The exact page link(s) on our site where the material appears.
  4. A statement that you believe in good faith the use is not permitted by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
  5. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are permitted to act for the owner.
  6. Your physical or electronic signature (typing your full name is acceptable).

What we do next

When we receive a complete notice, we remove or disable the listed material, stop offering any product that uses it, and let the person who supplied the material know about the claim where applicable. We will confirm to you by email once this is done.

Counter-notice

If material you provided was removed and you believe this was a mistake or misidentification, you can send a counter-notice to the same email address. It should contain your name and contact details, the link where the material appeared before removal, a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe it was removed by mistake, your consent to the jurisdiction of the appropriate court, and your signature. We may restore the material if the original claimant does not notify us that they have filed a court action.

Repeat infringement

We stop working with customers or suppliers who repeatedly submit material that infringes the rights of others.

False claims

Please be sure the material actually infringes your rights before sending a notice. Under the DMCA, knowingly misrepresenting that material is infringing can make you liable for damages.
