DMCA & Copyright
Protecting intellectual property on our platform
Report Copyright Infringement
If you believe your copyrighted work has been used without permission on the KidsBuild platform, you can submit a DMCA takedown request.
Rights Holder IP Protection Program
KidsBuild offers a dedicated program for verified rights holders (brands, studios, publishers) to proactively protect their intellectual property.
Program Benefits:
- IP Registry: Register your logos, characters, and trademarks for automated detection
- API Access: Submit reports programmatically and integrate with your existing IP protection tools
- Faster Response: Reports from verified rights holders are auto-verified and processed within hours
- Dashboard: Track report status, view analytics, and manage your protected assets
How the DMCA Process Works
- Submit a Takedown Request: Use our form or API to submit a DMCA-compliant takedown notice with required information.
- Review & Action: We review your request and, if valid, remove or disable access to the infringing content within 24-48 hours.
- Developer Notification: We notify the developer whose content was removed and provide them an opportunity to file a counter-notice.
- Counter-Notice Window: The developer has 72 hours to file a counter-notice if they believe the removal was in error.
- Resolution: If no counter-notice is filed, the content remains removed. If a counter-notice is filed, you have 14 days to file a lawsuit before we restore access.
Using External IP Protection Services
KidsBuild integrates with popular IP protection services. If you use one of these services, they can submit reports directly via our API:
- DMCA.com
- Red Points
- Brand Shield
- Other services with standard webhook support
Contact your IP protection provider to enable KidsBuild integration, or email ip@kidsbuild.com for webhook documentation.
Counter-Notice (For Developers)
If your app was removed due to a DMCA takedown and you believe this was in error, you can file a counter-notice. This requires:
- Your identification and contact information
- Identification of the removed material
- A statement under penalty of perjury that removal was a mistake
- Consent to jurisdiction
- Your physical or electronic signature
You can submit a counter-notice through your developer dashboard or by emailing dmca@kidsbuild.com.
Repeat Infringer Policy
In accordance with the DMCA, KidsBuild maintains a policy of terminating accounts of users who are repeat infringers. Users who receive multiple valid DMCA notices may have their accounts permanently suspended and be prohibited from using the platform.
