How to report copyright infringement on OptimusClips.

Last updated: 3 May 2026

OptimusClips Ltd ("we", "us") respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users of the Services to do the same. We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") and applicable UK and EU copyright law.

1. Designated Copyright Agent

We have registered a Designated Copyright Agent with the U.S. Copyright Office in accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(2). Send DMCA takedown notices and counter- notifications to:

Maxwell Melia (Designated Copyright Agent)

OptimusClips Ltd

39 Oldbury Court Road

Bristol BS16 2JF

United Kingdom

Email: support@optimusclips.com

Phone: +44 7425 23149

You can also verify our agent registration in the public U.S. Copyright Office directory at copyright.gov/dmca-directory.

2. How to Submit a Takedown Notice

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

  1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorised to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or, if multiple works, a representative list).
  3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, with information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material — typically a direct URL to the clip on our Services.
  4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, including your full name, address, telephone number, and email address.
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorised to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Misrepresentation warning: 17 U.S.C. § 512(f) makes it unlawful to knowingly materially misrepresent that material is infringing. Senders of bad-faith notices may be liable for damages, costs, and attorneys' fees.

3. What Happens Next

On receipt of a complete notice, we will:

  • Remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material expeditiously, typically within 24–48 hours.
  • Notify the user who uploaded or generated the material that we have removed it.
  • Provide that user with a copy of your notice (including your contact details) so they can submit a counter-notification if they choose.
  • Terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.

4. Counter-Notification

If you believe content you uploaded was removed in error or as a result of a misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification to our Designated Agent at the address above. Your counter-notification must comply with 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3) and include:

  1. Your physical or electronic signature.
  2. Identification of the material that has been removed and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed.
  3. 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 or misidentification.
  4. Your full name, address, telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if outside the U.S., for any judicial district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the original complainant or their agent.

After receiving a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the original complainant. We may restore the removed material 10 to 14 business days after we receive the counter-notification unless the original complainant notifies us that they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the user.

5. Repeat Infringer Policy

In accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(i)(1)(A), we will, in appropriate circumstances, terminate the accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers.

6. UK and EU Notices

For users and rightsholders outside the United States, we accept notices that meet the requirements of the UK Electronic Commerce (EC Directive) Regulations 2002 (Regulation 19) or analogous EU member-state implementations of Directive 2000/31/EC and the EU Copyright Directive (2019/790). The contact details above and the process described in Sections 2–4 apply equally; the additional U.S.-specific jurisdictional consent in Section 4 is not required for non-U.S. counter-notices.
