Submit a takedown notice

If you believe a piece of content produced by JARAI Studio infringes your intellectual property, your right of publicity, your privacy, or constitutes defamation, you can submit a takedown notice. JARAI honours valid notices under the EU Digital Services Act (DSA), the UK Online Safety Act, and the US DMCA.

🎬 How to submit a takedown notice

Prefer to read? Open the step-by-step transcript

1. Identify the content (URL or identifier) you’re reporting.
2. State the right infringed (copyright, publicity/likeness, privacy, or defamation) and your relationship to it.
3. Provide your contact details and a good-faith statement.
4. Submit — JARAI acknowledges receipt promptly and assesses valid notices within 14 days.

How quickly we act

We acknowledge receipt promptly. We then assess valid notices and act within 14 days — either taking the disputed content down (if the claim is upheld) or rejecting the notice with reasons (if it is not). Urgent notices involving non-consensual intimate imagery or child safety are escalated immediately and handled far faster than this window. You can counter-notice if you disagree with our decision.

How to submit

Email legal@jarai.studio with the information below. Put “Takedown notice” and the notice type in the subject line, and include everything in the list — a notice missing an element is not rejected, but we will have to ask you for it before we can act.

Required information

1. Your name (full legal name; pseudonyms not accepted)
2. Your contact email
3. Your organisation (if applicable — e.g., the company that holds the rights)
4. Notice type — pick one:
   • Copyright (you own the original work)
   • Right of publicity (the content depicts you / a person you represent without consent)
   • Privacy (the content discloses personal information unlawfully)
   • Defamation (the content contains false statements about you)
   • Other illegal content (CSAM, terrorism, etc. — these go to the highest-priority queue)
5. URL of the disputed content — direct link to the deliverable or the platform where you found it
6. Description of the content — what specifically is on it (e.g., “image at timestamp 0:12 of the video”)
7. Description of the infringement — why you believe it’s a violation
8. Ownership evidence — for copyright: link to your original work, registration certificate, or other proof
9. Good-faith statement — “I have a good-faith belief that the use of the material described above is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.”
10. Signature — your typed name confirming the above

What happens next

Time	What happens
On submission	We acknowledge receipt (a form submission gets a case reference you can track)
Within 14 days	We review the notice and either uphold (withdraw the content) or reject (explain why)
After upheld	We mark the deliverable Withdrawn, so JARAI will not distribute it again, and notify the account that owns it, with its counter-notice rights. The decision withdraws the content rather than deleting its files. Copies already published on third-party platforms are the operator/customer’s responsibility to retract — JARAI doesn’t have credentials to those platforms.
After upheld	The notice + decision is logged in our audit trail (kept for 6 years from the decision)

False notices

Submitting a knowingly false takedown notice may expose you to civil liability under perjury statutes (DMCA §512(f) for US-based notices, equivalent provisions under EU/UK law). Please only submit notices you sincerely believe are valid.

Counter-notice (if you’re the operator / customer)

If you believe a takedown was wrongly upheld against content you legitimately had the right to publish:

1. Email legal@jarai.studio with the original case number (the counter-notice procedure is also set out in section 6 of the Takedown Procedure)
2. Include your evidence of lawful use (license, release form, fair use justification, etc.)
3. We’ll re-review within 14 days and either restore the content or maintain the takedown with reasons

Other supervisory channels

For privacy-specific disputes (not IP), you can also go to a regulator.

You can complain to the data protection authority for the country you live in. Every jurisdiction with data protection law designates one, and you may approach yours directly — you do not have to come through us first.

To find yours:

• In the EEA — the European Data Protection Board publishes a directory of every national authority.
• In the UK — the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
• Anywhere else — search for your country's data protection authority, privacy commissioner or information commissioner. Most publish an online complaints form.
