DMCA Policy

DMCA Policy

Kindi is committed to respecting the intellectual property rights of others. As a design blog, we understand the importance of original creative works. This DMCA Policy explains how Kindi addresses copyright infringement claims under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

Reporting Copyright Infringement

Copyright holders or their agents may submit a notice of alleged infringement to Kindi. Upon receiving a valid DMCA notice, Kindi will promptly investigate the claim. We will remove or disable access to the material identified as infringing.

To file a DMCA takedown notice, please include the following elements:

  • A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.
  • Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed. This includes specific URLs or other identifying information.
  • Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing and its location on the kindi.org.uk website. Please provide precise URLs.
  • Sufficient contact information for the complaining party, including an address, telephone number, and email address.
  • A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  • A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Counter-Notification Process

If your content was removed due to a copyright infringement notice, you may submit a counter-notification. This allows you to dispute the claim of infringement. Kindi will then follow the DMCA procedure regarding counter-notifications.

To file a counter-notification, please provide the following:

  • Your physical or electronic signature.
  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location where the material appeared before it was removed or disabled.
  • 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 of the material to be removed or disabled.
  • Your name, address, and telephone number.
  • A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside of the United Kingdom, for any judicial district in which Kindi may be found. You must also state that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notification.

After receiving a valid counter-notification, Kindi will forward a copy to the original complaining party. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the content provider, the removed material may be replaced or access restored within 10 to 14 business days.

All DMCA notices and counter-notifications should be sent to Kindi’s designated Copyright Agent. Please use the following email address for all intellectual property claims:
