DMCA Policy

Last updated January 25, 2026

Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Policy

Harmono ("Company," "we," "us," "our") respects the intellectual property rights of others and complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. § 512. This policy describes how we handle copyright infringement claims and our procedures for addressing alleged violations of copyrighted materials on our platform.

1. Copyright Policy

We prohibit the posting, uploading, distribution, or transmission of any content that infringes upon the copyrights, trademarks, patents, or other intellectual property rights of any third party. Users who violate copyright or intellectual property rights may face account termination or removal of infringing content. We encourage users to respect intellectual property rights and only share content for which they have the necessary permissions or rights.

2. DMCA Notice of Copyright Infringement

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been infringed upon through our platform, you may submit a written copyright infringement notice to our Designated Copyright Agent. To be effective, your notice must be in writing and must include all of the following information:

• Your full legal name and signature (physical or electronic)

• A detailed description of the copyrighted work(s) that you claim have been infringed

• Specific identification of the material on our platform that is claimed to be infringing, including URLs, file names, or other precise information

• Your complete contact information, including mailing address, telephone number, and email address

• A statement confirming that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner

• A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, their agent, or applicable law

• The following statement, made under penalty of perjury: "I declare, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notice is accurate and that I am authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed."

Your notice must comply with applicable law and must contain sufficient detail for us to locate and evaluate the allegedly infringing material.

3. Submission Procedures

Submit your DMCA notice to our Designated Copyright Agent via email:

Designated Copyright Agent Email: contact@mono.app

Upon receipt of a properly formatted DMCA notice, we will conduct a good-faith investigation. We will respond expeditiously and typically within a reasonable timeframe, which may be less than ten (10) business days depending on the circumstances. Incomplete notices or notices that fail to comply with DMCA requirements may be rejected.

4. Our Response to DMCA Notices

Upon receiving a valid DMCA infringement notice, we will:

• Promptly investigate the allegation

• Remove, disable access to, or restrict the allegedly infringing material pending resolution

We will take action expeditiously but maintain the right to conduct a thorough review to ensure compliance with applicable law and to prevent wrongful removal of non-infringing content.

5. Counter-Notification Procedures

If your material has been removed or access has been disabled, you may submit a written counter-notification asserting that you believe the material was removed in error or that you have the right to use the material. Your counter-notification must include:

• Your full legal name and your physical or electronic signature

• Specific identification of the material that was removed or disabled, and where it was located before removal

• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake, misidentification, or misuse of the DMCA process

• Your complete contact information, including telephone number, email address and mailing address

• A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if outside the U.S., that you consent to jurisdiction in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California)

• A statement that you will accept service of process via email from the person who provided the original DMCA notice or that person's authorized agent

Your counter-notification must be submitted to the same copyright agent contact information listed above.

6. Reinstatement of Content

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will:

• Provide the original copyright claimant with a copy of your counter-notification

• Wait at least ten (10) days before restoring the material

• Restore the material within ten (10) to fourteen (14) days unless the copyright claimant files legal action seeking a court order to prevent reinstatement

You acknowledge that by submitting a counter-notification, you are subjecting yourself to liability for damages, including costs and reasonable attorney's fees, if you misrepresent that the material was removed in error.

7. Fair Use and Authorized Use

We recognize that not all uses of copyrighted material constitute infringement. Fair use under 17 U.S.C. § 107, including commentary, criticism, teaching, scholarship, parody, and news reporting, may permit use of copyrighted material without authorization. Additionally, you may have an explicit license, permission, or authorization to use copyrighted material. When submitting a counter-notification or if you believe material has been wrongfully removed, you may assert fair use or valid authorization.

8. Repeat Infringer Policy

We enforce a policy of terminating accounts for repeat copyright infringers. Users who have engaged in multiple substantiated copyright infringements may have their accounts suspended or permanently terminated. Additionally, we reserve the right to terminate the accounts of any user who repeatedly submits false or misleading DMCA notices. We will maintain records of substantiated infringement claims and will apply this policy consistently.

9. Verification and False Claims

We reserve the right to request additional verification or information from copyright claimants before taking action. We also reserve the right to investigate and take legal action against any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing or was removed in error. False DMCA notices may result in liability for damages, attorney's fees, and costs.

10. No Waiver of Rights

Nothing in this policy constitutes a waiver of any rights available under the DMCA, the Copyright Act, or any other applicable law. We reserve all rights and remedies available by law or equity, including the right to pursue claims against users who submit false or fraudulent notices.

11. Limitations on Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from the removal, restoration, or alleged infringement of material on our platform, including but not limited to loss of profits, goodwill, use, or data.

12. Governing Law and Disputes

This DMCA Policy is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the United States, without regard to conflicts of law principles. Any dispute arising from this policy shall be resolved exclusively in the Federal District Court located in the Northern District of California, or such other venue as may be required by law, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts.
