Reporting Copyright Infringement

We value the creative community and the contributors who help explain automotive care through photos, guides, and videos.

Response to DMCA Notices

Once we receive a valid DMCA notice, our team will review it carefully and take appropriate action in compliance with copyright law. This may include removing or disabling access to the material in question, contacting the user who provided the content, or requesting further clarification from both parties. Our goal is to handle each case fairly and promptly.

  • We verify that the notice meets DMCA requirements and is complete.
  • If necessary, the allegedly infringing material will be removed or restricted temporarily.
  • We notify the content uploader and provide an opportunity for response.
  • All steps, correspondence, and evidence are documented for proper records.

Repeat Infringement Policy
