What we can remove
kinkfilter is a search index. It stores metadata — titles, tags, performer names, and preview-image URLs — describing videos hosted by third parties. We do not host the underlying video files, and removing an entry from this index does not remove the video from the site that hosts it. To have the material itself taken down, send your notice to the hosting site as well.
What we can and will do promptly is remove the index entry, its metadata, and any preview reference, so the material is no longer findable or embeddable through kinkfilter.
Designated agent
Send notices to the designated agent for kinkfilter: dmca@kinkfilter.com.
What a valid notice must contain
Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), your notice must include all of the following. An incomplete notice may delay removal:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner, or a person authorised to act on their behalf.
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.
- Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it — for these pages, the full kinkfilter URL or the video’s viewkey.
- Your contact information: address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on their behalf.
Counter-notice
If you believe your material was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to the same address. Under § 512(g)(3) it must include your signature, identification of the removed material and its prior location, a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the removal was a mistake, and your name, address and telephone number, together with consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. federal district court for your address (or, if outside the United States, any district in which we may be found).
Repeat infringers and misrepresentation
We terminate index coverage of sources that are the subject of repeated, valid infringement notices. Note also that under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f) a person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees.
Not a copyright issue?
If you appear in indexed material and want it gone — for any reason, or no reason — you do not need a copyright claim. Use our content removal policy instead. It is faster and we do not ask you to justify the request.
