Respect for copyright matters to us, and we respond to proper notices about material on gamertag-generator.org. This page explains how to report material on gamertag-generator.org that you believe infringes your copyright, in line with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. §512).

How to report infringement

Please make sure your notice includes each of these elements, as required by 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3):

1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or of someone authorised to act on the owner's behalf.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work you believe has been infringed, or a representative list if one notice covers several works.
3. Identification of the material on gamertag-generator.org that you claim is infringing, with enough detail for us to find it, ideally the full address of each page.
4. How to reach you: your name, address, telephone number and email.
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
6. A declaration that the information is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorised to act on behalf of the owner.

Where to send it

Notices should go to [email protected]; a subject line such as “DMCA notice” helps us find them quickly. Valid notices are acted on promptly: the material is taken down or made inaccessible, and we confirm this to you. A notice missing any of the elements above may not be actionable, so please check it carefully.

If your material was removed

Anyone whose material was removed by mistake or misidentification may send a counter-notice to the same email address, containing:

• your physical or electronic signature;
• a description of the removed material and the location where it appeared;
• your statement, under penalty of perjury, of a good-faith belief that the material was removed by mistake or misidentification;
• your name, address and telephone number, together with your consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address (or any judicial district where the service provider may be found, if you are outside the United States) and your agreement to accept service of process from the complainant.

Following a valid counter-notice, the material can be put back after 10 to 14 business days, unless we hear that the complainant has started legal proceedings.

Repeat infringers

gamertag-generator.org has no user accounts or uploads, but where it applies, we will, in appropriate circumstances, cut off access for anyone who repeatedly infringes copyright.

False claims

Section 512(f) of the Copyright Act provides that knowingly and materially misrepresenting infringement, or a mistaken removal, can lead to liability for damages, costs and attorneys' fees. If you are unsure whether a use is infringing, for example because it may be fair use, consider seeking legal advice before you send a notice.
