Effective Date: November 25, 2025
1. Overview and Statutory Compliance
YourPornTube (“Platform,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) maintains full compliance with the Notice and Takedown requirements set forth in Title 17, United States Code, Section 512 of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”). This comprehensive federal statute establishes procedures for addressing claims of copyright infringement occurring on internet platforms.
This Platform qualifies as a “Service Provider” as that term is defined under 17 U.S.C. § 512(k)(1)(B), which encompasses providers of online services or network access, or operators of facilities therefor. As a qualifying Service Provider, we are entitled to the protections and limitations on liability commonly referred to as “safe harbor” provisions, contingent upon our adherence to the statutory requirements and expeditious response to properly submitted infringement notifications.
2. Designated Copyright Agent
In accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(2), we have designated an agent to receive notifications of claimed copyright infringement (the “Designated Agent”). All DMCA notices, counter-notifications, and related copyright correspondence must be directed to our Designated Agent at the contact information provided in this policy.
3. Filing a Notice of Claimed Copyright Infringement
If you are a copyright owner, or an agent authorized to act on behalf of a copyright owner, and you believe in good faith that material available on our Platform infringes your copyright, you may submit a notification pursuant to the DMCA by providing our Designated Agent with the following information in writing:

5.1 Restoration of Content
Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the original complainant who filed the DMCA notice. If the complainant does not file a court action seeking an injunction against the alleged infringement within ten (10) business days, we may restore the removed material in accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(2)(C).
6. Repeat Infringer Policy
In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable laws, we have adopted and implemented a policy providing for the termination, in appropriate circumstances, of accounts or access privileges of users who are repeat copyright infringers.
6.1 Definition of Repeat Infringer
A “repeat infringer” is a user who has been the subject of multiple valid DMCA takedown notices and for whom we have removed or disabled access to allegedly infringing material on multiple occasions. The determination of whether a user qualifies as a repeat infringer is made at our sole discretion, taking into account all relevant factors.
6.2 Account Termination
We reserve the right to terminate user accounts, deny access to the Platform, and remove all content uploaded by users determined to be repeat infringers. Such termination may occur without prior notice at our sole discretion. Users whose accounts are terminated for repeat infringement are prohibited from creating new accounts or accessing the Platform through alternative means.
7. Limitation of Liability
By complying with the DMCA safe harbor provisions, we limit our liability for copyright infringement claims arising from user-generated content. We do not pre-screen, review, approve, or endorse content uploaded by users, and we disclaim any liability for copyright infringement by our users to the maximum extent permitted by law.
8. False or Fraudulent Claims
We take the integrity of the DMCA process seriously. Submitting false, fraudulent, or bad faith copyright claims is a violation of federal law and may subject the claimant to damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by the alleged infringer, by us, or by any copyright owner or copyright owner’s authorized licensee who is injured by such misrepresentation.
We reserve the right to seek damages and attorneys’ fees against any party who submits a notification or counter-notification in violation of the law.
9. Non-DMCA Intellectual Property Complaints
This policy addresses copyright infringement claims under the DMCA. For other intellectual property concerns, including trademark infringement, right of publicity violations, or patent disputes, please contact us at [email protected] with detailed information about your claim.
10. International Users
While the DMCA is United States federal law, we respect intellectual property rights worldwide. Copyright owners from jurisdictions outside the United States may submit infringement notifications using the procedures outlined in this policy. We will process such notices in accordance with applicable law and our internal policies.
11. Modifications to This Policy
We reserve the right to modify, amend, alter, or supplement this DMCA Policy at any time and for any reason at our sole discretion. Changes to this policy will be effective immediately upon posting to the Platform. All users should regularly review this policy to stay informed of any updates or changes.
Continued use of the Platform following any modifications to this policy constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. If you do not agree with any changes, you must discontinue use of the Platform.
12. Contact Information for DMCA Notices
All DMCA notices, counter-notifications, and related correspondence should be directed to our Designated Agent:
Email: [email protected]
Subject Line: DMCA Notice – Copyright Claim
Please ensure all required information is included in your notice to facilitate prompt processing.
