Copyright / Takedown Policy

Report alleged copyright infringement or rights issues for catalog materials. We review good-faith notices and may remove or hold inventory.

Pending counsel review. These documents are operational templates for a digital beat storefront. They are not a substitute for advice from qualified music, privacy, or tax counsel. Live payments stay disabled until rights clearance and counsel sign-off are recorded in the launch runbook.

1. Reporting infringement

If you believe material on Beat Thrift Shop infringes your copyright or related rights, send a written notice to the support / rights contact published on the site once live payments are enabled (or to the operator email used for this deployment).

2. What to include

A complete notice should include:

  • Your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email.
  • Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed.
  • The specific URL, beat title, or booth file at issue.
  • A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized.
  • A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act.
  • Your physical or electronic signature.

3. Our response

We may remove or disable access to the material, place the beat on hold in the catalog ledger, and notify the relevant parties. Repeat or fraudulent notices may be disregarded.

4. Counter-notice

If your material was removed in error, you may send a counter-notice with your contact details, identification of the removed material, a good-faith statement that removal was mistaken, consent to jurisdiction of an appropriate court, and your signature. We may restore material after review where appropriate.
