DMCA / Copyright Statement

Copyright Overview

At Yardlands, we honor the rights of creators and expect our community to do the same. Our Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and Copyright Policy lay out the steps for addressing claims of copyright infringement in compliance with applicable laws.

Intellectual Property

All content, including text, images, logos, and other materials on the Yardlands platform, is owned by Yardlands or used with the required permissions. Unauthorized copying, modification, or distribution of this material is prohibited. We reserve all rights that are not specifically granted.

Reporting Infringement

If you believe your copyrighted work has been copied or used improperly, please contact us immediately with a detailed report. Include specifics about the work, its location on our site, your contact information, and a sworn statement asserting your belief that the usage is unauthorized.

Response to Notices

Yardlands reviews all legitimate DMCA requests and will respond according to established procedures, which may include removing or restricting access to the infringing content. We may also notify the individual accused of infringement, allowing them to submit a counter-notice if appropriate.

Counter-Notification Procedure

If you believe your content was wrongfully removed and does not infringe on copyrights, you may issue a counter-notification. This should include identification of the removed content, a declaration under penalty of perjury regarding the mistake, and your consent to the jurisdiction where you reside. Upon verification, Yardlands may restore the content.

Limitation of Liability

Yardlands is not liable for copyright violations by third parties who share or post content via external services. While we strive to remove infringing content upon proper notification, we cannot ensure the complete monitoring of all submissions.

Effective Date

This Copyright and DMCA Policy was last updated in February 2025 and will remain in effect until modified.
