DMCA Copyright Notification

Last Updated: April 2014

Readable fully respects the intellectual property of others. Whilst we believe that transcription of videos by users falls under 'Fair Use', a provision deeply embedded into the core fabric of copyright law, we respect the wishes of copyright holders if they prefer not to have their videos transcribed and translated by our community of users.

Readable will promptly remove any transcripts from the Readable website in accordance with the Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA) if properly notified that the materials infringe a third party's copyright. 

How Copyright Holders can file a DMCA Notice to Remove Copyrighted Content

If you believe that your work has been used in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide us a written notice containing the following information: 

  • Your name, address, telephone number and email address
  • A description of where on the Readable website the material that you claim is infringing may be found, sufficient for Readable to locate the material (e.g., the URL).
  • A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the copyrighted work is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  • A statement by you 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 copyright owner's behalf.
  • Your electronic or physical signature.
