DMCA / Copyright Policy

PDF7 respects the rights of copyright owners and operates in accordance with the DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act). This page explains how to send us a notice of alleged copyright infringement.

1. PDF7 Does Not Store Files

Important note: PDF7.org does not store or host files uploaded by users. Uploaded files are kept only in temporary memory during the operation and are removed from the system the moment it finishes. Copyright-infringing content is therefore not "hosted" on PDF7 servers.

However, if someone is misusing PDF7 to process copyrighted content belonging to others, you can submit a notice through this page.

2. How to Submit a Notice

To submit a DMCA notice, you need to send an email or contact-form message containing the following information:

• Identification of the copyrighted work (title, owner, registration details if any)
• A URL or description indicating the location of the allegedly infringing material
• Your contact information: full name, postal address, phone, email
• The statement: "I 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."
• The statement: "I declare under penalty of perjury that the information in my notice is accurate and that I am authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner."
• A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or authorized agent

3. Where to Send the Notice

You can send your DMCA notices through our contact page with the subject "Copyright Complaint". Notices are typically reviewed within 24-48 hours.

4. Counter-Notification

If you have been adversely affected by a takedown notice and believe it was wrongful, you may submit a counter-notification. Counter-notifications must also contain the information above.

5. Repeat Infringers

PDF7 reserves the right to limit or block service access for users who engage in repeated copyright infringement. This may be IP-based or account-based (if applicable).

6. False Claims

DMCA notices are part of a legal process. Those who make false claims may be liable for damages and penalties under US federal law and other relevant legislation.
