Copyright & DMCA Policy

1. Our Position

Simply-Debrid respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. We respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and with applicable European law.

2. What Simply-Debrid Does and Does Not Do

Understanding this matters, because it determines who can actually remove a file:

• We do not host any files. No user content, media, or archive is stored on our servers.
• We do not index or search for content. There is no catalogue, no search engine, and no directory of material on this site. Nothing can be discovered here.
• We act only on a link a user already possesses, at that user's explicit request, and the resulting direct link expires automatically after 24 hours.

Consequently, removal at source requires a notice to the hosting provider that actually stores the material. A notice to us cannot delete a file we do not hold. We will, however, act on valid notices to the extent the matter is within our control — see section 4.

3. Submitting a Notice of Infringement

To be effective, your notice must be in writing and must include all of the following (17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)):

• A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner, or a person authorised to act on their behalf.
• Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or a representative list if multiple works are covered by a single notice.
• Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with the specific URL and enough information to let us locate it. Notices that identify only a domain, a category, or the Service as a whole cannot be actioned.
• Your name, postal address, telephone number, and email address.
• A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
• A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorised to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Please note that under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f) a person who knowingly and materially misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for damages, including costs and legal fees.

4. How We Respond

We want to be precise about what we can and cannot do, rather than promise removals that are not ours to perform:

• Valid notices are acknowledged promptly, normally within 5 business days.
• We cannot delete the file. It is not on our servers. Only the hosting provider that stores it can remove it, so a notice to them is the effective remedy and we will point you to the right provider where we can identify it.
• Generated links expire automatically within 24 hours of creation, so any link reported to us stops functioning on its own, whether or not a notice is filed.
• Where a notice shows an account is being used to infringe, we may suspend or terminate that account under section 6 and under our Terms of Service.

5. Counter-Notice

Because we do not host or disable content, a counter-notice here concerns account action taken under section 4 or 6. If you believe your account was restricted by mistake or misidentification, send a counter-notice to our designated agent containing:

• Your physical or electronic signature.
• Identification of the account concerned and of the notice that led to the restriction.
• A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the restriction was applied as a result of mistake or misidentification.
• Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of your district (or, if outside the United States, of any district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the party who filed the original notice.

We may reinstate the account in 10 to 14 business days following receipt of a valid counter-notice, unless the original complainant notifies us that they have filed an action seeking a court order.

6. Repeat Infringer Policy

We terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are the subject of repeated, substantiated notices of infringement. Termination for repeat infringement is permanent and carries no refund of any remaining subscription time.

7. Designated Agent

Send notices and counter-notices to:

• Agent: Simply-Debrid — Copyright Agent
• Email: [email protected]

Email is the fastest route and is open to everyone, whether or not you hold an account. If you do have an account, you may instead use our contact form and select Copyright / DMCA as the reason.

Incomplete notices will be returned with an explanation of what is missing rather than silently ignored.
