Before you file

• We can act only on content hosted on Circles, identified by its link (for example a post or profile URL).
• Private circles and messages are end-to-end encrypted: we can't see their contents. We can still act on the specific post or account you identify, and the uploader may be identified from the link.
• We may share your notice, including your name and contact details, with the person who posted the content so they can respond.
• Knowingly misrepresenting that material is infringing can make you liable for damages under §512(f).
• The uploader may file a counter-notice. If they do, the content may be restored in 10–14 business days unless you tell us you've filed a court action.
• Accounts with three active copyright strikes within a year are terminated under our repeat-infringer policy.
