DMCA and Take Down Policy

Last updated: August 2026

The Earth Shack Software LLC (“we,” “our,” or “us”) respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of our website, storefront, documentation, downloads, and software products to do the same. This DMCA and Takedown Policy explains how we handle notices of alleged copyright infringement and other copyright-related takedown requests.

This policy applies to material made available through our website, product pages, documentation, downloadable software files, related digital materials, and any user-provided material that may be hosted or displayed through our services.

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) provides procedures for certain copyright notices and counter-notifications. Requests involving trademarks, privacy, publicity rights, confidential information, security concerns, or other non-copyright matters may require a different review process and should be submitted through our Contact page.


1. Copyright and Takedown Contact

Copyright notices, takedown requests, and related correspondence may be sent to:

Copyright and Takedown Contact
The Earth Shack Software LLC
Email: support@theearthshacksoftware.com

You may also contact us through our Contact page.

If The Earth Shack Software LLC designates an agent with the U.S. Copyright Office for purposes of the DMCA safe-harbor provisions, the applicable registered agent information will be published and maintained as required by law.


2. Submitting a Copyright or DMCA Notice

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied, displayed, distributed, linked, or otherwise made available through our website, storefront, documentation, downloads, or software products in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please submit a written notice that includes substantially the following information:

  1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notice, a representative list of those works.
  3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, including information reasonably sufficient for us to locate the material.
  4. Your contact information, including your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, the owner’s agent, or the law.
  6. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, where applicable under the DMCA, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Notices that do not contain sufficient information may be delayed or may not be actionable. We may request additional information if reasonably necessary to identify the material or evaluate the request.


3. Our Response to Notices

Upon receiving a copyright notice or takedown request that appears complete and credible, we may investigate the request, remove or disable access to allegedly infringing material, restrict access to affected content, notify an affected user or provider where appropriate, and take other reasonable steps consistent with applicable law.

Some Earth Shack Software products display, link to, retrieve, transform, or summarize information from third-party public data sources, APIs, websites, or services. If a claim concerns material hosted or controlled by a third party, we may direct the complainant to the original source or service provider. Where appropriate, we may also remove a link, attribution, reference, embedded material, or other access point within our own website or software.

We reserve the right to remove, disable, modify, or restrict access to material when we reasonably believe it may infringe the rights of others, violate our policies, create legal risk, or otherwise be inappropriate for our website or Products.


4. Counter-Notifications

If material that you posted, submitted, or provided was removed or disabled as a result of a copyright or DMCA notice, and you believe that removal or disabling resulted from mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written counter-notification.

For a counter-notification intended to invoke the procedures of the DMCA, the submission should include substantially the following:

  1. Your physical or electronic signature.
  2. Identification of the material that was removed or to which access was disabled, and the location where the material appeared before removal or disabling.
  3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
  4. Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
  5. The jurisdictional and service-of-process statements required by applicable DMCA procedures.

Where applicable, if we receive a valid counter-notification, we may forward it to the original complainant and take further action consistent with the DMCA and other applicable law.


5. Misrepresentations and Abuse

Copyright notices and counter-notifications should be submitted carefully and in good faith. Applicable law may impose liability for knowingly making material misrepresentations regarding whether material or activity is infringing or was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification.

We may reject or decline to act on submissions that appear incomplete, inaccurate, abusive, fraudulent, duplicative, or unrelated to copyright infringement.


6. Repeat Infringement

In appropriate circumstances and where applicable to the services we provide, we may disable or terminate access for users, customers, contributors, or account holders who are determined to be repeat infringers. We may also remove or disable access to material associated with repeated or serious infringement concerns.

Many Earth Shack Software products are downloadable software applications rather than hosted user-content platforms. Available actions therefore depend on the nature and location of the material involved, including whether the material is hosted by us, supplied by a user, included in a download, referenced by a Product, linked from our Site, or controlled by an independent third-party source.


7. Third-Party Sources and Materials

Earth Shack Software Products may reference or use third-party data sources, software libraries, websites, APIs, public information, or other external resources. Inclusion of a third-party source does not imply ownership of that source's material by The Earth Shack Software LLC.

Additional attribution and source information is available in our Third-Party Notices & Data Credits.


8. No Waiver of Rights

Nothing in this policy limits our right to request additional information, remove content, decline to remove content, restore content, terminate or restrict access, preserve evidence, respond to legal process, or take any other action available under applicable law, our Terms of Use, our License Agreement / EULA, or our other policies.


9. Policy Updates

We may update this DMCA and Takedown Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent version. Continued use of our website, storefront, downloads, or software products after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy where applicable.
