DMCA Takedown & Counter-Notice Procedure

How to report copyright infringement on Podhoc and how creators can submit a counter-notice.

How to report infringing content

Podhoc respects copyright. If you believe a podcast, comment, or embed-widget render on Podhoc infringes your work, send a notice to legal@podhoc.com with the subject line DMCA Takedown — Podhoc containing:

  1. Your contact information (name, email, postal address, telephone).
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed.
  3. The exact URL of the allegedly infringing material on Podhoc (https://app.podhoc.com/discover/p/<slug> for podcasts, or the comment / embed URL).
  4. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  5. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on the owner’s behalf.
  6. Your physical or electronic signature.

We act on legitimate, complete notices within a reasonable time. Incomplete or abusive notices may be ignored.

Counter-notice

If your content was removed and you believe the removal was a mistake or misidentification, send a counter-notice to legal@podhoc.com with the subject line DMCA Counter-Notice — Podhoc containing:

  1. Your contact information.
  2. Identification of the material removed and its URL prior to removal.
  3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
  4. Consent to the jurisdiction of the courts where you reside (or, if outside the European Union, where Podhoc is headquartered) and acceptance of service of process from the counter-party.
  5. Your physical or electronic signature.

Repeat-infringer policy

Accounts that repeatedly receive valid DMCA notices may be suspended or permanently terminated at Podhoc’s discretion, per the Terms of Use.

Embed-widget revocation

Where infringement occurs via a third-party site embedding a Podhoc podcast, Podhoc may revoke embed access for the offending host independently of removing the source podcast. See Terms of Use §“User-Generated Content (Comments and Embeds)” for the reserved legal right.
