DMCA Policy and Designated Agent

Last Updated: August 25, 2025

Swarmify respects intellectual property rights and expects users to do the same. This page explains how to send a notice of claimed infringement under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. §512) and how to send a counter-notification if your material was removed by mistake or misidentification.

1) Designated DMCA Agent

The following is Swarmify’s Designated Agent to receive notifications of claimed infringement:

DMCA Agent, Swarmify Video LLC
Email: dmca [at] swarmify.com
Telephone: +1 321 [dash] 345 [dash] 8560
Address: 7901 4th St N #17077, St. Petersburg, FL, 33702, USA

2) How to file a DMCA takedown notice

To request removal or disabling of access to material you believe infringes your copyright, send a written notice to the Designated Agent that includes all of the following (per 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3)):

  1. Your physical or electronic signature.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or a representative list if multiple works at a single online location are covered by one notification.
  3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit Swarmify to locate the material (e.g., URLs, specific timestamps for video content, account identifiers).
  4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit Swarmify to contact you, such as your name, postal address, telephone number, and email address.
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. “I hereby state that I am the owner, or an agent authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of the copyright(s) that is/are allegedly infringed.”

Submitting incomplete notices may delay processing. Email is preferred. We may share the notice (including your contact information) with the user who posted the material and with third parties such as Lumen Database.

3) Repeat infringer policy

Per 17 U.S.C. §512(i), Swarmify will, in appropriate circumstances and in its discretion, terminate accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers, which may include users who have received multiple valid DMCA notices. We may also remove or disable access to allegedly infringing material and take other reasonable steps to prevent further infringement.

4) Counter-notification

If your material was removed or access was disabled and you believe it was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notification to the Designated Agent that includes:

  1. Your physical or electronic signature.
  2. Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access was disabled (e.g., precise URL).
  3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
  4. Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if outside the United States, for any judicial district in which Swarmify may be found) and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notification or an agent of such person.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we may forward it to the original complainant. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against you within the period specified by law, we may restore the material.

5) Misrepresentations

Under 17 U.S.C. §512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing, or that it was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees.
