DMCA takedowns

When to use this

FireConvertApp is a file-conversion utility. We don't host a public library of user content — uploads are ephemeral and auto-delete within 60 minutes of conversion. Even so, a takedown notice is appropriate if you believe:

• Our site displays, links to, or hosts material that infringes your copyright (for example, on a marketing page, in sample/preview content, or in cached form).
• Someone is actively using our service to redistribute your copyrighted work.

If the only thing that happened is that someone else converted a file of yours that they downloaded elsewhere, that upload has already expired from our storage — but you can still send a notice and we'll check our logs.

How to file a takedown

Email the notice to radiant.canvaz@gmail.com with the subject line "DMCA Takedown". Put the full notice in the body of the email (not as an attachment, if you can avoid it — it's faster for us to process).

What your notice must include

To be valid under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), your notice must contain substantially the following:

1. Your identification — full legal name, company (if applicable), mailing address, phone number, and email.
2. The work — a clear description of the copyrighted work you say has been infringed. One notice can cover multiple works if you list them.
3. The infringing material — the exact URL(s) or a description specific enough for us to locate it on our service.
4. A good-faith statement — words to the effect of: "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."
5. An accuracy statement — words to the effect of: "The information in this notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, I am the owner, or authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed."
6. Your signature — a physical or electronic signature. Typing your full legal name at the end of the email counts as an electronic signature.

Leaving any of these out slows us down or invalidates the notice — we might ask you for the missing piece before we act.

What happens after you send the notice

1. We acknowledge receipt, usually within 48 hours.
2. If the material is still on our service, we remove or disable access to it promptly.
3. If we can identify the user who uploaded the material, we notify them and forward the notice (minus your phone number, to reduce harassment risk, but including your name and the substantive claim — that's required for them to counter-notice).
4. We keep a log of notices for our records and for our repeat-infringer policy.

Counter-notice

If you believe your content was removed in error — for example, because you own the work, or because your use qualifies as fair use — you can send a counter-notice to the same address, with the subject line "DMCA Counter-Notice". Include:

1. Your full name, mailing address, phone number, and email.
2. Identification of the material that was removed and where it appeared before removal.
3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the US federal district court for the judicial district where your address is located (or, if you're outside the US, any judicial district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the original complainant or their agent.
5. Your signature (electronic is fine).

If we receive a valid counter-notice, we forward it to the original complainant. If they don't file a court action within 10 to 14 business days, we may restore the material.

Repeat-infringer policy

Accounts and IP addresses that receive multiple valid takedown notices may be suspended or permanently blocked from the service, at our discretion and in accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(i).

False claims are not free

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), knowingly misrepresenting that material is infringing (or that it was removed by mistake) can make you liable for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees. Please send notices about material you actually own and honestly believe is being used without permission.
