(You may create a legal@ email later if you want a separate channel, but this is perfectly valid now.)

3. What Happens After You Submit a Notice

Once we receive a valid DMCA notice:

  • The allegedly infringing material may be removed or access may be disabled.

  • We will notify the user (if applicable) that their content has been removed or limited.

4. Counter-Notice Procedure

If you believe your content was removed in error or misidentification, you may submit a DMCA counter-notice that includes:

  1. Identification of the removed content and its prior location.

  2. A statement under penalty of perjury that you believe the material was removed due to mistake or misidentification.

  3. Your consent to U.S. federal court jurisdiction in your district.

  4. Your name, address, phone number, and your signature.

MySpellSong.com reserves the right to terminate access for users who repeatedly violate copyright law.

6. Good-Faith Note From the Creator

MySpell is an independent, artist-owned project.

We welcome commentary, reactions, and transformative fair-use discussion — but unauthorized re-uploads, edits, or derivative works that misrepresent or replicate the film will be removed.
