DMCA & Copyright Policy

1. What this covers

QuickDeveloperTools publishes its own tools, explanations, guides, screenshots and videos. It also shows things that are not ours: embedded videos, the pages and headers our checkers fetch when you give them a URL, and names or logos of third-party services mentioned in results. This policy covers all of it.

2. Sending a notice

Email [email protected] with the subject line Copyright notice. So that we can act on it, a notice should include (these are the elements listed in 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)):

1. your physical or electronic signature, or that of someone authorised to act for the owner;
2. a description of the copyrighted work you say is infringed;
3. the exact URL(s) on QuickDeveloperTools where the material appears — a page address, not just the home page;
4. your name, postal address, telephone number and email address;
5. a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorised by the owner, its agent or the law; and
6. a statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the owner or are authorised to act for the owner.

Notices under other laws — for example India's Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021, or the EU Digital Services Act — are welcome at the same address. The same details help us act on them quickly.

3. What happens next

• We acknowledge a complete notice, normally within 2 business days.
• If the notice is valid, we remove or disable access to the material and tell you when that is done.
• Where we can identify who supplied the material, we let them know and forward a copy of the notice (your contact details included, as the law expects).
• If a notice is missing required details, we will say what is missing rather than ignore it.

4. Counter-notice

If material you supplied was removed and you believe that was a mistake or misidentification, you can send a counter-notice to the same address. It should include (per 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3)):

1. your physical or electronic signature;
2. identification of the material removed and where it appeared before removal;
3. a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief it was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification;
4. your name, address and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the appropriate court and will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice.

We forward a valid counter-notice to the original complainant. Unless they tell us within 10–14 business days that they have started court action, we may restore the material.

5. Repeat infringement

Anyone who repeatedly supplies infringing material — for example through a submission form, a guide contribution or a comment — loses the ability to do so.

6. False claims

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), anyone who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing, or that it was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages. Please consider fair use and similar exceptions before sending a notice, and ask a lawyer if you are unsure.

7. Our own images

Want to use a screenshot, diagram or social card from this site? That is usually fine — the image license explains what you can do without asking and how to credit us.
