DMCA & Copyright

Send your notice to kuroninja@ckuro.cc with the subject line "DMCA Takedown Notice."

We respond to all valid notices within 48 hours and will act on confirmed infringement within 5 business days. You'll get a confirmation when we act.

To be valid under the DMCA, your notice must contain all of the following. Incomplete notices cannot be acted upon.

• ◈

  Identification of the copyrighted work

  Describe the work you believe has been infringed. A link to your original, a description, or a registration number if you have one. If you're filing for multiple works, a representative list is fine.

• ◈

  Identification of the infringing material

  The exact URL(s) on CKURO.ART where the infringing content appears. "Somewhere on your site" isn't enough. We need the specific listing or page URL.

• ◈

  Your contact information

  Your full legal name, mailing address, phone number, and email address. P.O. boxes are acceptable for mailing address.

• ◈

  Good faith statement

  A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

• ◈

  Accuracy statement

  A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf.

• ◈

  Signature

  Your physical or electronic signature. For email notices, typing your full legal name at the bottom of the notice constitutes an electronic signature.

Had content removed after a DMCA notice? If you think it was a mistake, or you had the right to use the material, you can file a counter-notice.

A valid counter-notice must include:

• ◈Your full legal name, address, phone number, and email
• ◈Identification of the material that was removed and its URL before removal
• ◈A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification
• ◈A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your district (or, if outside the US, any judicial district in which CKURO.ART may be found)
• ◈Your physical or electronic signature

Send counter-notices to the same address: kuroninja@ckuro.cc with subject line "DMCA Counter-Notice."

Once we receive a valid counter-notice, we forward it to the original claimant and restore the content within 10–14 business days — unless the claimant gets a court order to block it.

We have a repeat infringer policy, as required for DMCA safe harbor. Artists who receive multiple valid takedown notices — specifically those who repeatedly upload content they don't own — will have their accounts terminated.

"Repeat infringer" means an artist with two or more confirmed valid DMCA notices within a 12-month period, or a single notice involving deliberate, large-scale copyright theft. Each case is reviewed individually.

Accounts terminated for copyright infringement are permanently banned. No reinstatement.

Email is the fastest and preferred method. Notices sent without the correct subject line may be delayed.
