DMCA

Effective Date: 10/10/2025

JR NETMEDIA (“we”, “us”, or “our”) provides this DMCA Disclaimer to inform users and copyright owners of our policies and procedures for handling claims of copyright infringement on Appcrazy (the “Site”). We take intellectual property rights seriously. Even though our Site mainly contains our original content and information about apps (with links to official sources), if you believe that any material on our Site infringes your copyright, this page explains how you can notify us and what we will do in response.

What is the DMCA?

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) is a United States law that, among other things, outlines a process for copyright owners to report alleged infringement and request removal of infringing content from websites. Our Site is not U.S.-based, but we voluntarily comply with the DMCA process as a standardized method for addressing such issues globally. We also consider and comply with applicable local laws regarding copyright (in Andorra or other jurisdictions), but the DMCA framework is a common one that many online services use.

Filing a Copyright Infringement Notice

If you are a copyright owner (or authorized representative) and you believe content on Appcrazy infringes your copyright, please send us a DMCA takedown notice with the following information:

  1. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim is infringed. Describe the work in detail (for example, “the photograph titled ‘Sunset in Paris’ taken by me on June 1, 2024” or “text from the article ‘How to Use XYZ App’ published on my blog”). If it’s a registered work, you can include the registration number (not required, but helpful).

  2. Identification of the material on our Site that you believe is infringing. Please provide the specific URL(s) on Appcrazy where the material is located, and describe what portion of the page is infringing. The more precise you are, the easier for us to locate the content. For instance, “The image at [URL] is my copyrighted photo” or “The review on [URL] copies several paragraphs from my guide, specifically the section starting with ‘XYZ...’.”

  3. Your contact information. Include your full name, organization (if applicable), mailing address, telephone number, and email address. We need this to communicate with you about the notice. Keep in mind, under the DMCA, we may forward the entirety of your notice (including your info) to the person who provided the allegedly infringing content or to third parties like the Lumen database that archives such notices. (Lumen is a Harvard University project that catalogs content removal requests.)

  4. A statement of good faith. Example wording: “I have a good faith belief that the use of the copyrighted material described above on Appcrazy is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.” This is basically you affirming you believe this is actually infringement (not fair use or licensed use).

  5. A statement of accuracy and authority. For example: “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner or am authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.” This legally verifies that you are who you say you are and that you aren’t making a false claim intentionally.

  6. Your signature. It can be an electronic signature. You can simply type your full legal name at the end of your notice. If you prefer to send a physical letter (email is strongly preferred), sign it with ink.

Once you have all of this, send your notice to our designated copyright agent. Email is the quickest method:

If you need to use regular mail for some reason, you can send it to:
JR NETMEDIA – DMCA Agent
Carrer dels Avellaners, Ed. Griu, Pis 5 Pta 3, AD200

(Again, email is much faster. Mailing might significantly delay our ability to respond due to international post, etc.)

We recommend using the email template format similar to what’s outlined above, as it ensures you don’t miss anything important. If you’re not sure how to write a DMCA notice, there are many examples online – just make sure to include all the numbered points.

What We Will Do Upon Receipt of a Valid Notice

When we get your DMCA notice, our team will: - Review the Notice: We check that all required info is there and the claim appears bona fide. If something is missing or unclear, we might reach out to you for clarification. - Remove or Disable Access: If we find the allegedly infringing content on our Site, we will remove it or disable access to it. For example, if it’s an image, we may take it down from the page or replace it with a placeholder. If it’s text, we might temporarily remove the text or the page. - Notify the User/Provider (if applicable): If the content in question was, hypothetically, posted by someone other than us (like a user comment or a guest post), we will notify that person that we took the content down due to a DMCA claim. Since our Site doesn’t really have user uploads at the moment, this typically means if it’s our original content that was flagged, our “notification” is more internal (notifying the author or our team). - Prevent Future Issues: We will make note of the complaint to avoid the content simply reappearing. For instance, if our editor was using an image found online, we’ll instruct them not to use it again and perhaps use an alternative that we have rights to. - Follow-up: We may contact you to confirm that we removed the material and to provide any other info, or to get more details if needed.

We try to handle DMCA notices promptly – usually within 24-48 hours of receipt. If there will be a delay (e.g., key staff are unavailable for some reason), we’ll let you know.

Counter-Notification Process

If you are a user of our Site (or the content owner that was removed) and you believe the content we removed in response to a DMCA notice was mistakenly taken down (either because it is not infringing or you have proper authorization to use it), the DMCA provides a way for you to respond. This is called a counter-notification.

Note: Because content on our Site is primarily controlled by us, a counter-notice scenario might be rare. Essentially, it would be us (or a contributor) saying “hey, we believe our use was lawful under fair use or we had a license.” We’ll outline the process regardless.

To file a counter-notification, you must send us a communication that includes: 1. Identification of the material that was removed (or to which access was disabled) and the location where it appeared before removal. E.g., “You removed image X that was at [URL].” 2. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification. 3. Your name, address, and telephone number. 4. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district of your address (if you’re outside the U.S., you’d consent to the jurisdiction of any U.S. federal court where we may be found, which might be a bit theoretical since we’re not U.S.-based, but this is part of the formal requirements). Also say that you will accept service of process from the person who filed the original DMCA notice (or their agent). 5. Your signature (physical or electronic).

Send this to the same contact: [email protected], with the subject “DMCA Counter-Notification.”

Once we receive a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the party who sent the original DMCA claim. At that point, if they want the content to remain off, they need to file a lawsuit seeking a court order to prevent the content from being re-posted. If we don’t receive notice of such a lawsuit within 10 business days after we provide the counter-notice to the original claimant, the DMCA allows us to restore the removed material.

However, keep in mind: - We, as site operators, might choose not to restore content anyway if we feel it’s prudent (especially if it’s our own content and we decide it’s not worth a potential fight). But formally, the option exists. - If you’re considering a counter-notice, ensure that you genuinely have the rights or a strong fair use argument. Counter-notices are not to be taken lightly; you’re essentially declaring the content is non-infringing under penalty of perjury.

Final Remarks

We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain a lawful and respectful platform. We understand that as a content creator or rights holder, seeing your work used without permission can be frustrating. We also understand that sometimes content usage falls into gray areas like fair use, which can be subjective. Our goal is to work with all parties amicably and lawfully.

This DMCA Disclaimer may be updated occasionally to reflect changes in our policies or contact information. Please refer to the most current version when preparing your notice.

If you have any questions about this process or whether you should file a notice, you may want to consult an attorney. We cannot provide you legal advice about copyright, but we can clarify procedural questions about how to submit notices to us.
