2. HOW WE HANDLE CHARACTER/MUSIC TAKEDOWNS
After we receive a valid character/music takedown request, we may:
-
(for music takedown) remove the music from our site totally
-
(for character takedown) remove and disable creation using that character going forward
Note: (for character takedown) If users already created videos using that character before removal, we may not be able to delete all copies that are already downloaded or posted elsewhere. However, we will take reasonable steps to remove the asset from our platform and prevent future use.
FALSE CLAIMS WARNING
Submitting false takedown requests may have legal consequences. Only submit a request if you are the rights owner or authorized to act for them.
