Nimbus respects copyright. If content hosted on getnimbus.net infringes your copyright, you can submit a takedown notice that meets the elements of 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3), and we will act on it.
Where to send a notice
Open a ticket in our Discord and tag it #dmca. Tickets reach the same
humans who triage support, and they're routed to the operator who can
act on the notice. If Discord is unavailable, email the address listed
on our Support & Replacements page with the subject line
DMCA Notice — Nimbus.
Required elements
A takedown notice has to include all six of the following or we won't be able to act on it:
- Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed. If you're claiming infringement of multiple works on one site, a representative list is fine.
- Identification of the infringing material with enough specificity that we can find and remove it. A direct URL is preferred.
- Your contact information — full name, postal address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.
- Your physical or electronic signature.
A notice that omits any of these may still get a courtesy response, but it does not trigger the §512(c) takedown obligation.
What we do after a valid notice
When we receive a notice that contains all six elements:
- We remove or disable access to the identified material promptly — typically within 48 hours during normal operating windows, sooner when staff is online.
- We notify the user who posted the material with a copy of the notice (with your contact info redacted unless you ask us to share it).
- We log the takedown for the repeat-infringer policy below.
Counter-notification
If material you posted was removed and you believe the removal was a mistake or misidentification, you can submit a counter-notice. It must include:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the removed material and the location at which it appeared before removal.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address, telephone number, and consent to the jurisdiction of a U.S. federal district court (or, if outside the U.S., to any judicial district in which Nimbus may be found).
- A statement consenting to accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notice.
We will forward your counter-notice to the original notice-submitter. If they do not file suit within 10 business days, we will restore the material within 14 business days of receiving the counter-notice.
Repeat infringer policy
Per §512(i)(1)(A), accounts that accumulate three valid takedown notices within a rolling 12-month window are subject to termination. We make that determination based on the count of unique, valid notices sustained against the account — not on the bare number of complaints received.
Misuse
Filing a misrepresentative DMCA notice can subject you to liability under §512(f). If a notice repeatedly mis-identifies content (e.g., claims ownership of art you can plainly see on the original artist's portfolio), we will refuse it and may publish the refusal.
Contact
For everything else — questions about a notice, the status of a
takedown, or who to escalate to — open a ticket in our Discord and tag
it #dmca.
