xhopen.xyz (the “Site”) qualifies as a “service provider” under 17 U.S.C. §512(k)(1) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) and seeks to benefit from the safe-harbor protections available to service providers under that law. We respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect our users to do the same. This Notice and Takedown Policy explains how copyright owners can report claimed infringement and how affected users can respond.
1. Notice of Claimed Infringement
If you believe your copyrighted work has been used on the Site in a way that infringes your rights, please send our Designated Copyright Agent a notice that includes:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf;
- A description of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed;
- A description of where the allegedly infringing material is located on the Site (ideally including the specific URL(s));
- Your name, address, telephone number, and email address;
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
- A statement, made 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.
Send your notice to our Designated Copyright Agent at: Email: darkero.xyz@gmail.com
Please use this address only for copyright/DMCA notices. Other inquiries sent to this address may not receive a response.
Misuse of this process: Knowingly submitting a false or misleading DMCA notice or counter-notice can result in legal liability, including damages, costs, and attorneys’ fees under 17 U.S.C. §512(f). This procedure applies only to copyright infringement claims by rights holders or their authorized agents — not to other complaints or legal claims. We may investigate and take action against anyone who misuses this process. Please confirm you meet the legal requirements above before submitting a notice.
2. Takedown Procedure
Upon receiving a compliant notice, we will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to the material identified, consistent with 17 U.S.C. §512, and will notify the user who posted the material. We reserve the right to remove or disable access to any content at any time, including where the circumstances make infringement reasonably apparent, even absent a fully compliant notice.
It is our policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are found to be repeat infringers.
If a notice is deficient under §512 but reasonably identifies the infringing material and its location, we may attempt to contact the sender to help them bring the notice into compliance.
After material is removed, the affected user may submit a counter-notification as described below. If a valid counter-notification is received and no court action is filed by the original complainant, we will typically restore the material within 10–14 business days of receiving the counter-notification.
We may update this policy from time to time; please check back periodically for changes.
3. Counter-Notification Procedure
If you believe material you posted was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification under 17 U.S.C. §512(g)(2)–(3). Any information you provide must be accurate; you may be liable for damages if you misrepresent facts in a counter-notification.
Your counter-notification must include:
- A specific description of the material that was removed or disabled;
- A description of where the material appeared on the Site before removal (ideally including the specific URL(s));
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification. You may use the following language: “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good-faith belief that the referenced material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.”
- Your name, physical address, telephone number, and email address; and
- A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if you are outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notice, or their agent.
Send your signed counter-notification to our Designated Copyright Agent at: Email: darkero.xyz@gmail.com
Please use this address only for copyright/DMCA matters.
After we receive a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the party who submitted the original notice. Unless that party notifies us that they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the allegedly infringing activity, we will typically restore or cease disabling the material within 10–14 business days of receiving the counter-notification.
4. Notices Involving Other Service Providers’ Users
If the party you believe is infringing your copyright is itself a service provider under 17 U.S.C. §512(k)(1) hosting third-party content, please send your notice directly to that service provider’s own designated DMCA agent rather than to us.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may modify, update, or add to this policy at any time. Please check this page periodically to stay informed of any changes.
6. Scope of This Contact
Our Designated Copyright Agent handles copyright/DMCA matters only. Customer service questions, billing/payment issues, and account cancellation requests sent to this address will not receive a response — please direct those to our general support contact instead.
