DMCA and Rights Requests

1. Scope

This process covers material published on lovesimulator.chat only. Content inside a third-party partner service is outside our control and must be reported to that operator directly.

It covers text, imagery, layout and any embedded asset served from this domain. If you are unsure whether the material is ours or a partner’s, send the notice anyway and we will redirect it.

2. What to include in a notice

A notice we can act on identifies the work, the location and the sender.

• Identification of the copyrighted work or other right you are asserting.
• The exact URL or URLs on this site where the material appears.
• Your name, organisation if relevant, and a working email address.
• A statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the rights holder, its agent or the law.
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are the rights holder or authorised to act for them.
• Your physical or electronic signature.

3. Where to send it

Send notices to support@lovesimulator.chat with "Rights notice" in the subject line. Email is the fastest route and is monitored.

Notices sent through social media, contact forms on unrelated sites or third-party intermediaries may not reach us. Use the address above so the request is logged and tracked.

4. How we handle a notice

We acknowledge receipt, review the claim, and where it is substantiated we remove or disable access to the material. In clear cases this happens without waiting for a counter-notice.

The publisher of this site is also its operator, so there is no queue between the complaint and the person who can act on it.

Where a notice is ambiguous we may ask for clarification before acting. Where it appears to be an attempt to suppress lawful criticism or comparison, we will say so and decline.

Removal is not an admission of infringement. We frequently take material down first and evaluate afterwards, because the cost of a wrongly published image is far higher than the cost of a wrongly removed one.

5. Counter-notice

If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you may send a counter-notice with the same contact details, the URL of the removed material, and a statement under penalty of perjury explaining the basis.

We may restore the material after a reasonable period unless the original complainant pursues the matter further.

Counter-notices are held on the same record as the original claim. If the two parties disagree on the facts, we will keep the material offline until they resolve it between themselves or through a court.

6. Likeness and personality rights

Every character shown on this site is fictional and AI-generated, and no real person is intentionally depicted. If you nevertheless believe an image resembles you or a person you represent, tell us and we will review it.

Likeness complaints are handled with the same urgency as copyright complaints, and we will remove an image while a credible claim is being reviewed.

You do not need to prove ownership of a copyright to make a likeness complaint. A clear description of the image, the URL and why you believe it resembles you is enough to start the review.

7. Non-consensual and unlawful material

We have zero tolerance for non-consensual imagery and for any depiction of minors. Reports of this kind are treated as an emergency, actioned immediately on receipt and escalated where appropriate.

Use support@lovesimulator.chat with "Urgent" in the subject line.

8. Repeat infringers

Where content is contributed by a third party, we terminate the access of anyone who repeatedly submits infringing material.

Because this site is published as static files by its operator rather than by contributors, this provision is precautionary. It applies to any future channel that accepts outside submissions.

9. Abuse of the process

Knowingly false statements in a notice or counter-notice carry legal consequences under the DMCA and equivalent laws, including liability for damages and costs. We keep records of notices received.

Notices sent to suppress a competitor, to remove an unflattering but accurate comparison, or to manufacture a takedown record are treated as abuse and refused in writing.

10. Response times

We aim to acknowledge within a few business days and to resolve straightforward notices shortly afterwards. Complex claims involving several rights holders may take longer, and we will keep you updated.

11. Records

Notices, counter-notices and the actions taken are retained so that a pattern of abuse can be demonstrated if necessary. They are not published.

Records are kept for as long as is useful to defend a claim and are shared only with the parties involved or with a competent authority on a lawful request.
