DMCA POLICY

Anime Fiber respects the intellectual property rights of others and complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). This policy outlines how we handle copyright concerns, particularly in relation to designs and artwork featured on our website, and how you can file a complaint if you believe your rights have been infringed.

1. Copyright Ownership & Fair Use

When someone creates an original work fixed in a tangible medium, they automatically own the copyright to that work. This includes:

• Visual art, written works, and designs

• Audiovisual content, sound recordings, and software

• Merchandise and apparel graphics

We recognize that copyright law allows for certain “fair use” applications, including commentary, criticism, parody, and satire. Some designs on our platform may incorporate recognizable elements under these exceptions.

2. Independent Artist Contributions

Anime Fiber features original, transformative works submitted by independent artists. These artists confirm that:

• Their work is original, parodic, or commentary-based

• Their designs comply with fair use and do not violate third-party intellectual property rights

Anime Fiber does not claim affiliation with any copyrighted works referenced through parody or transformative commentary. We expect all submissions to honor the rights of original creators.

3. Reporting Copyright Infringement

If you believe your copyrighted work has been used on our site without authorization, please notify us with a DMCA-compliant notice that includes:

• Your name, address, telephone number, and email

• A description of the copyrighted work allegedly infringed

• The exact URL or location of the allegedly infringing material

• A statement that you believe, in good faith, that the use is not authorized

• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf

• Your physical or electronic signature

Please complete and submit your DMCA notice using the form provided below.

We will review the notice promptly. If the notice is valid, we may disable or remove the allegedly infringing content. We will also attempt to contact the artist or user who submitted the content.

4. Counter-Notification Procedure

If your material was removed in error or due to misidentification, you may file a counter-notification. Your counter-notice must include:

• Identification of the material that was removed and its original location

• A statement under penalty of perjury that the material was removed by mistake or misidentification

• Your name, address, and contact information

• Consent to jurisdiction in your local U.S. Federal Court (or any applicable jurisdiction)

• Your physical or electronic signature

We will evaluate your submission and, unless the original claimant files a court action, we may restore the material within 10–14 business days.

5. Repeat Infringement Policy

We reserve the right to suspend or permanently disable the accounts of users or artists who are found to be repeat infringers of intellectual property rights.

6. Policy Updates

This policy may be updated occasionally to reflect changes in legal requirements or our internal procedures. Please check back regularly to ensure you remain informed.
