DMCA Policy – PDF Vino

Effective Date: July 18, 2025
Last Updated: July 18, 2025

At PDF Vino (https://pdfvino.blogspot.com), we take intellectual property rights very seriously. Our platform is committed to complying with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and other applicable intellectual property laws. If you believe that your copyrighted material has been used on our website in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, you may notify us by submitting a valid DMCA Takedown Notice.

This page outlines how we address copyright infringement claims, how to file a takedown notice, and how alleged infringers can respond with a counter-notice if appropriate.

📌 What Is the DMCA?

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) is a U.S. copyright law enacted in 1998 to protect the rights of copyright holders in the digital environment. It provides a formal process for content owners to request the removal of infringing material and protects service providers (like PDF Vino) from liability when they follow DMCA-compliant procedures.

🛡️ Our Commitment to Copyright Protection

We provide tools that allow users to convert, compress, and manage PDFs and images directly in their browsers. Since our platform operates on a self-service model, users upload and manage their own content. However, we do not allow the uploading, sharing, or processing of copyrighted materials without proper authorization from the copyright holder.

If notified properly, we will:

Investigate all good-faith copyright complaints
Remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material
Notify the user responsible for the content
Provide a means for the user to respond via a counter-notice

📤 How to Submit a DMCA Takedown Notice

If you are a copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of one, and you believe that material available through our site infringes your copyright(s), please provide a written notification that includes the following details:

✅ DMCA Takedown Notice Must Include:

Your Contact Information

Suspend or terminate their access to our services
Block their IP address or associated accounts
Report severe or repeat infringements to appropriate authorities

⚖️ Counter Notification (If You Believe Material Was Wrongfully Removed)

If we remove or disable access to content based on a DMCA takedown request and you believe the removal was in error, you have the right to submit a counter-notification.

✅ Counter Notice Must Include:

Your full name, address, phone number, and email
Identification of the content removed and its location before removal
A statement under penalty of perjury that you believe the material was wrongly removed or disabled
A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of your local federal court
Your physical or electronic signature

Send the counter-notice to the same email: dmca@pdfvino.com

Upon receiving a valid counter-notification, we may restore the content unless the original complainant files a legal action within 10–14 business days.

⚙️ How We Process DMCA Complaints

Content Removal: If valid, we remove or disable access to the material.
User Notification: The uploader is informed about the takedown and provided with counter-notice instructions.
Follow-up Actions: Based on the situation, content may be permanently removed or restored.
