DMCA POLICY

1. Introduction

At TrendyGlobalTees, we respect intellectual property rights and comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). As a Print-On-Demand (POD) business, we provide a platform where designs are created and printed on demand. While we strive to ensure compliance with copyright laws, we rely on users and designers to upload only original or licensed content.

If you believe that a product or design on our website infringes your copyright, you may submit a DMCA takedown request as outlined below.

2. Copyright Infringement Notification

If you are the copyright owner (or an authorized representative) and believe that your intellectual property has been used without permission, you may file a DMCA takedown request.

Your DMCA Notice Must Include:

  • Your full legal name and contact information (email, phone number, and mailing address).
  • A description of the copyrighted work that has allegedly been infringed.
  • The exact URL(s) of the infringing product(s) on our website.
  • A statement confirming that you have a good faith belief that the material is being used without authorization.
  • A statement under penalty of perjury that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf.
  • Your physical or electronic signature.

How to Submit a DMCA Notice

Please send your DMCA takedown request to:
Email: [email protected]
Subject: DMCA Takedown Request

Once we receive a valid DMCA notice, we will:

  1. Temporarily remove the reported content from our website.
  2. Notify the seller or designer responsible for the content.
  3. Allow the seller or designer to submit a counter-notification if they believe the takedown was in error.

3. Counter-Notification (For Sellers/Designers)

If you are a seller or designer whose content was removed due to a DMCA request and you believe the takedown was incorrect, you may file a counter-notification.

Your Counter-Notification Must Include:

  • Your full name, mailing address, and contact details (email, phone number).
  • A description of the removed content and the URL where it was previously available.
  • A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed due to mistake or misidentification.
  • Your consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court in your location (or where our business operates).
  • Your physical or electronic signature.

How to Submit a Counter-Notification

Email: [email protected]
Subject: DMCA Counter-Notification

Upon receiving a valid counter-notification, we may:

  1. Restore the content unless the original complainant files a lawsuit within 10–14 business days.
  2. Notify the complainant that a counter-notification has been filed.

4. Responsibilities of Sellers & Designers

As a POD marketplace, we do not pre-screen every design uploaded by sellers. Therefore, we expect all designers and sellers to:
✔ Upload only original content or properly licensed artwork.
✔ Not use copyrighted images, logos, or trademarks without permission.
✔ Ensure they have the rights to sell and reproduce any design uploaded to our platform.

Any seller found repeatedly violating copyright laws may face:

  • Content removal
  • Account suspension or termination
  • Legal consequences if copyright infringement is proven

5. Limitation of Liability

TrendyGlobalTees is a Print-On-Demand platform, meaning we act as an intermediary between independent designers and customers. We are not responsible for copyright violations committed by sellers but take all DMCA complaints seriously and act upon them promptly.

We are not liable for any financial losses, reputational damages, or legal disputes resulting from content uploaded by third parties.
