DMCA Copyright Infringement Policy

In compliance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 512 (the "DMCA"), Turf has implemented the following notice-and-takedown procedures to address allegations of copyright infringement on the Platform.

Designated DMCA Agent

Turf's designated agent for receiving notifications of claimed copyright infringement, as required under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(2), is:

DMCA Designated Agent

Service Provider: Marcelo Stocco Lyra Ranieri (operator of "Turf")

Designated Agent: Marcelo Stocco Lyra Ranieri

Address: 6801 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33141, USA

Email: team@turfyeah.com (subject line: "DMCA Notice")

Registered with the U.S. Copyright Office DMCA Designated Agent Directory (filed March 3, 2026; searchable at dmca.copyright.gov).

Notice Requirements

To be effective under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), a notification of claimed infringement must be a written communication that includes substantially the following:

  1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or a representative list if multiple works are covered by a single notification;
  3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient to permit the service provider to locate the material (including specific URLs);
  4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit the service provider to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and email;
  5. A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
  6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Counter-Notification Procedure

If a user believes that content was removed by mistake or misidentification, they may submit a counter-notification to the Designated Agent. Pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(g), the counter-notification must contain:

  • The user's physical or electronic signature;
  • Identification of the removed material and its location before removal;
  • A statement under penalty of perjury that the material was removed by mistake or misidentification; and
  • The user's name, address, telephone number, and consent to jurisdiction of the relevant federal court.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, Turf will forward it to the original claimant. If no federal court action is filed within 14 business days, the content will be restored.

Repeat Infringer Policy

In accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(i), Turf has adopted a policy providing for the termination of user accounts determined to be repeat infringers. A repeat infringer is any user who has been the subject of three (3) or more valid DMCA takedown notices. Turf reserves the right to permanently terminate such accounts.

Goodwill Takedown

Any rights holder, authorized representative, or licensee may report an image used by Turf as a Circle Card illustration or landing page visual asset by contacting the Platform at team@turfyeah.com with a description of the content and the basis for the request. No formal legal process, court order, or DMCA notice is required.

Upon receipt of a goodwill report, we will review the identified image and, where appropriate, remove or disable access to it. Voluntary removal under this channel does not constitute an admission of infringement or any other violation of law.

Governing Law

This Policy is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Any dispute will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Delaware.
