DMCA Copyright Policy

Digital Millennium Copyright Act

Hello there, friend! Welcome to our online space, found at https://drake-merch.shop/ (let’s just call it the “Site” for short). Here in this cyber world, we really value the idea of ownership, especially when it comes to creative stuff. We play by the rules, and one of those important rules is the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). It’s like the superhero of copyright protection in the United States (US). If you’re someone who owns copyrights or speaks for them, and you think something fishy is going on at our Site, you can send us a message through our DMCA Agent, whose info you’ll find below.

Because we’re a part of this digital world, we get to use the “safe harbor” rules of the DMCA. It’s like our shield against claims of copyright problems. But if someone really thinks there’s an issue, they need to tell us in a certain way. Here’s what they should include in their message:

1. Proof that they are the copyright owner or someone they chose to speak for them (signature, either electronic or on paper).
2. Clear info about which part of their creative work they think is being used without permission.
3. Details about the stuff they’re not happy about, including the web address (URL) so we can find it quickly.
4. How we can get in touch with them, like their name, address, email, phone number, and fax (if they still use that).

They also have to swear that they really believe someone is breaking the rules with their stuff and that everything in their message is true. No fibbing allowed!

If someone makes a false claim (and we really hope they don’t), there are penalties for them, like having to pay money and cover legal costs. All these messages should be sent through our Contact page, and sending them online is the fastest way to go.

Oh, and just so you know, if you complain about someone breaking the rules, they might find out who you are. By telling us your complaint, you’re saying it’s okay for them to know.

If Your Stuff Gets Taken Down – Fight Back!

Let’s say you get a message from us saying something of yours was taken down because of a copyright problem. Don’t worry, you can say, “Hold on a minute!” and let us know. Here’s what you need to send us:

1. Your signature, whether it’s on paper or online.
2. A good description of what got taken down and where it was before we removed it.
3. You’ve got to promise, under the threat of punishment if you’re not being honest, that there was a mistake or someone mixed things up.
4. Your name, where you live, and your phone number. You also have to say you’re cool with the court in your area taking care of any arguments, or if you’re not in the US, you’re okay with any court close to us.

Just like before, send this message through our Contact page, and doing it online is quicker.

No More Rule Breakers Allowed!

We’re really serious about following the rules, especially when it comes to copyrights. We keep track of messages from copyright owners about people breaking the rules more than once. If we catch someone doing it again and again, they might lose their account with us. We’re all about fairness.

Things Might Change

We’re not sticking to just one way of doing things. We might change how we deal with copyright problems and how people can tell us about them. It’s a good idea to check back now and then to see if anything has changed.

The Marvels of Intellectual Property

Hey there, fans! We love being connected with you and all the creative minds out there. Our mission is to spread awareness of the fantastic items made by Drake Merch Shop for fans worldwide. We work with talented people from different places, and even though we check their designs before putting them up, we know that sometimes things can go wrong. If you see something on our site that looks like your work, and you can prove it’s yours, we’ll take it down within 24 hours and give you the credit you deserve.

Copyright Law is like a superhero cloak for original ideas turned into real things like art or stories. Trademark Law is there to protect special words, symbols, designs, or logos that show where things come from. And Publicity Rights keep an eye on a person’s name, face, and likeness. That means no one can use someone else’s identity to make money without their okay.

If you think your creative work is being used in a way that’s not cool, tell us at [email protected]. Send a Notice and Takedown Report with:

1. A link to the thing bothering you.
2. Proof that what you made is really yours, like a link to your own website or other proof.
3. Your name and how to contact you.
4. Put “TAKEDOWN REPORT” in the email subject.
