DMCA & copyright
Movy is an index. Files are not stored on our server, so a single takedown here removes the entry, not every copy on the web.
What Movy hosts
Movy hosts page markup and metadata only. Film and episode files are served by third-party sources and displayed through an embedded player. Posters and synopses are supplied by TMDB. Movy is not affiliated with the studios, networks or sources.
Filing a notice
Send a written notice to hello@movy.help with the subject “DMCA notice”. To be actionable under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), it should include:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or authorised agent.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed.
- The exact Movy URL(s) of the allegedly infringing pages.
- Your name, address, telephone number and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorised by the owner, its agent or the law.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are the owner or authorised to act on the owner's behalf.
What happens next
Valid notices are reviewed and, where the claim is clear, the specific page is removed or the embed is detached, usually within several business days. Because the catalogue is generated from an external source, take-downs are applied to the specific title page rather than the whole source.
Counter-notice
If a title was removed in error, send a counter-notice with the same contact details, the removed URL and a statement consenting to jurisdiction. The page can be restored if the claimant does not pursue the matter.
