DMCA policy

Rubmp hosts user-submitted listings, reviews and photos. We respect the intellectual property rights of others and respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512).

Reporting copyright infringement

If you believe content on this site infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our copyright agent that includes all of the following:

  1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed.
  3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with enough information for us to locate it (the listing or review URL).
  4. Your contact information: name, address, telephone number and email.
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  6. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act for the owner.

Where to send it

Email (preferred): [email protected]

What happens next

On receipt of a complete notice we will remove or disable access to the identified material promptly, make a reasonable attempt to notify the user who posted it, and record the notice. Users whose content is repeatedly the subject of valid infringement notices will have their accounts terminated.

Counter-notification

If your content was removed and you believe that was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice containing: your physical or electronic signature; identification of the removed material and where it appeared; a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake or misidentification; your name, address and telephone number; and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address (or, if outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found) and will accept service of process from the person who filed the original notice.

Unless the original claimant files a court action, removed material may be restored 10–14 business days after we receive a valid counter-notice.

Misrepresentation

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), anyone who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that it was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees.
