Copyright and DMCA Policy

How we handle copyright

We respect other people’s work and expect the same from everybody who uses this site. If you believe something here infringes a copyright you own, or one you are authorised to act for, you can ask us to take it down.

We follow the notice and counter-notice process set out in the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the DMCA), and we deal with notices from anywhere else in the same way.

What this covers

This covers material on cronuszens.com: the scripts on the shelf, Club posts and the comments under them, and anything else this site serves. If what you are concerned about is in our Discord server, tell us and we will deal with it there, or report it to Discord directly.

A copyright notice is only for copyright. A script that does not work, a trade mark, a question about a purchase or a disagreement with another member is not one, and should go to biz@cronuszens.com or our Discord server instead. Our content-policy says how to report anything else.

How to send a notice

The simplest way is submit-a-notice, which asks for everything a notice needs, in order. You can also email a notice to biz@cronuszens.com, with “DMCA notice” in the subject line.

What a notice has to include

• Your physical or electronic signature, as the copyright owner or as somebody authorised to act for them.
• The copyrighted work you say is being infringed or, if there are several, a representative list of them.
• The material you say is infringing, described well enough for us to find it: the full address of the page, and which script, post, comment or file on it.
• Your name, postal address, telephone number and email address.
• A statement that you believe in good faith that the use you are complaining about is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
• A statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act for them.

If a notice leaves any of this out, we may ask you to complete it before we act on it.

What happens after you send one

We read every notice. If it is complete, we remove the material or stop it being available, and we do that promptly.

Where we can, we tell the person who posted it that it has been taken down and why. We may send them a copy of your notice, including your name and contact details, so that they can reply to it.

If your material was taken down

If you believe something of yours was removed because of a mistake, or because it was wrongly identified, you can send us a counter-notice at biz@cronuszens.com. It has to include:

• Your physical or electronic signature.
• What was removed, and where it appeared before it was removed.
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you believe in good faith the material was removed as the result of a mistake or of being wrongly identified.
• Your name, postal address and telephone number.
• A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district where your address is or, if your address is outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice or their agent.

We pass a complete counter-notice on to the person who sent the original notice. Unless they tell us that they have started court action to keep the material down, we will put it back no sooner than 10 and no later than 14 business days after we received your counter-notice.

Repeat infringers

Where an account is repeatedly the subject of valid notices, we will close it, as our terms-of-sale allow, and that includes any Club membership on it.

Misusing this process

Knowingly saying something false in a notice or a counter-notice can make you liable for the damages it causes, including costs and legal fees. If you are not sure whether a use of your work is infringing, take advice before you send a notice.

We may refuse to act on notices that are plainly sent in bad faith, to harass somebody, to settle a dispute that is not about copyright, or in bulk without any sign that each one was checked.
