DMCA / Copyright Notice and Counter-Notice

Draft pending counsel review — not legal advice, not in force until approved by the owner

This procedure is a working draft. The notice and counter-notice elements follow 17 U.S.C. §512; the agent identity is a placeholder until counsel confirms the registration details: none are invented here. Reviewed by: (pending) · Reviewed on: (pending).

1. Sending a copyright notice

If you believe content handled through the services infringes your copyright, send a notice to security@tcp.systems (the same mailbox as security reports; correspondence is retained for three years under the retention policy, row 10). Include the elements of 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3):

• a physical or electronic signature of a person authorised to act on behalf of the copyright owner;
• identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed;
• identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with enough detail for the operator to find it;
• your contact details;
• a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is unauthorised, and a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are authorised to act for the copyright owner; and
• the designated agent’s details once registered: [[REGISTERED-ENTITY]], [[ADDRESS]].

2. Counter-notice

If material you posted was removed and you believe the removal was mistaken, you may send a counter-notice under 17 U.S.C. §512(g) to the same mailbox, including: your signature; identification of the material and where it appeared; a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the removal was a mistake; your name, address and phone number; and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the relevant federal district court.

3. What happens next

Repeated notices and counter-notices become part of the abuse record for the accounts involved. This page does not describe a notice-and-takedown workflow run that has not yet been exercised; the first live exercise is tracked in the operator’s go-to-market plan (P0-10, GTM-SUITE-PLAN-2026-11-04.md).
