DMCA notice
How rights holders can report infringing material on Neon Vector Arena while understanding our venue information website scope.
Respect for original work
We reference third-party brands for informational venue purposes. If something on this host crosses your rights, use the structured notice path so our team can locate URLs quickly.
Bad-faith spam, automated carpet-bombing, or notices missing required declarations slow everyone down—including players waiting on legitimate fixes.

Neon Vector Arena respects intellectual property rights and responds in good faith to notices of alleged infringement. We are an independent venue information website and do not claim ownership of third-party brands, logos, or media assets.
This page summarizes how rights holders may contact us. It is not legal advice. If you are unsure whether a use is infringing, consult qualified counsel in your jurisdiction.
1. Legal frameworks we follow
We aim to comply with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) safe-harbor principles where applicable, and to honor comparable notice-and-takedown regimes in other countries when a request is clear, complete, and maps to local law. Because we are a local venue operator, complex cross-border disputes may require additional time to coordinate.
2. What kinds of issues belong in a DMCA notice
Appropriate notices typically involve copyrighted text we did not write, photographs or illustrations we do not license, or verbatim reproductions of protected documentation. They generally do not include: short quotations with attribution used for commentary, factual compatibility tables, or trademark disputes unrelated to copyright (those may need a separate process).
If your concern is that we mention a brand or trademark for informational venue purposes, that may be nominative fair use rather than infringement. We still review each notice carefully.
3. Filing a notice of alleged copyright infringement
If you believe material on this site infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our designated agent containing:
- A physical or electronic signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed—or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works.
- Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (full URLs are strongly preferred).
- Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an email address.
- A statement that you 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.
- A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
Incomplete notices may be rejected or delayed. Automated bulk notices that target unrelated URLs slow down responses for all parties.
4. Designated agent and response timing
Email [email protected] with the subject line “DMCA Notice.” Include the checklist above. If postal correspondence is required, request a mailing address in your email; we will provide one when appropriate.
Our team works across business hours in Serrekunda. We aim to acknowledge receipt within a reasonable window and to remove or disable access to clearly infringing material after verification, but we cannot guarantee law-firm turnaround speeds.
5. Counter-notifications
If you believe material was removed or disabled because of a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notification containing your signature, identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, 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, your name and contact information, consent to jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for your judicial district (if in the U.S.), and a statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original notice.
We will follow applicable statutory timelines for restoration or further action where U.S. law governs the dispute.
6. Repeat infringers and community features
If we launch accounts, comments, or uploads, we may adopt a repeat-infringer policy consistent with DMCA safe-harbor expectations. That could include warnings, suspensions, or bans tied to verified abuse.
7. Trademark and publicity (non-copyright) concerns
Copyright and trademark are different bodies of law. If your issue is purely trademark-related (for example, a belief that our layout implies manufacturer sponsorship), explain the facts with specificity. We will correct genuinely misleading labeling when verified.
8. Advertising creatives and user-generated ads
Third-party ad networks may serve creatives we do not pre-approve at the human level. If an advertisement infringes your rights, report it through the ad network’s tools and notify us so we can escalate with the vendor when possible.
9. False notices and abuse
Knowingly misrepresenting that material is infringing—or that material was removed by mistake—can carry legal consequences under applicable law. Do not use DMCA notices to silence lawful guest commentary.
