Copyright Complaints

If you own a copyright, or are authorized to act for someone who does, and you believe material on itchiogamesbox.com infringes it, you can send us a written DMCA notice.

The notice should give us enough detail to locate the material and understand why you consider it infringing.

• Your full name and contact details.
• A description of the copyrighted work you believe has been infringed.
• Details that let us find the material in question, ideally the exact page URL.

Submitting a Notice

Send DMCA notices through our Contact page or by email to [email protected]. Please mark the message clearly as a copyright or DMCA request so it goes to the right review.

Including the exact URL of the disputed material helps us check the complaint faster.

Review of Complaints

Once we receive a complete copyright complaint, we may examine the details and decide what action applicable law calls for.

Depending on the case, we may take down or limit access to the material, get in touch with the party involved, ask for more information or take other suitable steps.

Sending a DMCA notice does not guarantee that material will be removed. We may consider whether the notice contains what the law requires and whether other legal factors apply.

Counter-Notification

If you believe material was taken down or disabled by mistake or because it was misidentified, you may send a counter-notification where applicable law allows.

The counter-notification should set out the grounds for your objection and give us enough information to assess it. Depending on the situation, we may pass it on to the original complainant or take other steps the law requires.

Repeat Infringement

Where appropriate and in line with applicable law, we may limit or end access to the Site for users or parties who repeatedly infringe copyrights or repeatedly supply infringing material.

Third-Party Content

Some material available through the Site may come from third parties or be hosted on outside platforms. When material is hosted entirely by another service, you may also need to send your complaint to that host or platform.

Even so, we may review complaints about pages, links, embedded content or other material shown on itchiogamesbox.com and act where we are able and have a legal basis to do so.

Good-Faith Submissions

Only copyright owners or their authorized representatives with a real basis for a claim should send copyright complaints. Knowingly filing a materially false or misleading notice may carry legal consequences.

Policy Updates

We may change this DMCA Policy from time to time to reflect updates to the Site, our procedures or legal requirements. The most recent version on this page applies from the date it is published.
