IF IT IS A RESTAURANT MENU, THERE IS A FASTER ROUTE AND YOU SHOULD USE IT. Go to /menu-policy. It needs no account, asks you to prove nothing, and the menu comes down the same day. Nothing below is required for a menu, and we would rather you used the short form.
Everything else — a photograph, a storefront description, an icon, a profile picture, a review, or anything else published here that is yours — is covered by this page.
WHAT WE PUBLISH THAT SOMEBODY ELSE MADE Businesses upload their own images and write their own storefront copy. Customers write reviews and upload profile pictures. We read restaurant menus from businesses' own public websites and type them in from the same. We do not knowingly publish anybody else's work without the right to, and where we are told we have, we take it down.
SENDING US A NOTICE Email copyright@driverruns.com. If you would rather send it by post, ask at the same address and we will give you a postal route.
To be a valid notice under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), it needs all six of these:
1. Your physical or electronic signature, as the owner or somebody authorised to act for them.
2. What work you say has been infringed. If it is several, a list is fine. 3. WHERE IT IS ON OUR SITE — a URL, or enough for us to find it without guessing. This is the one people leave out and the one that slows everything down. 4. How to reach you: address, telephone, and email. 5. A statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the owner, its agent, or the law. 6. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and — UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY — that you are the owner or authorised to act for them.
⚠️ A NOTICE IS A LEGAL STATEMENT, NOT A COMPLAINT FORM. Section 512(f) makes somebody who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing liable for the other side's costs and damages. If you are not sure the material is yours, ask us first — we will look, and asking costs you nothing.
WHAT WE DO WITH IT We act promptly: the material comes down or is disabled, and we tell whoever posted it what was removed and why, and pass on your notice so they can answer it.
COUNTER-NOTICE If your material was removed and you believe it was a mistake or a misidentification, send a counter-notice to the same address with:
1. Your signature.
2. What was removed and where it was before it was removed. 3. A statement UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY that you believe in good faith it was removed as a result of a mistake or misidentification. 4. Your name, address and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for the district where you live — or, if you are outside the United States, for any district where we may be found — and that you will accept service from the person who sent the original notice.
We forward it. If the person who sent the notice does not tell us within 10 to 14 business days that they have gone to court to stop you, we may put the material back.
REPEAT INFRINGERS An account that repeatedly posts other people's work is closed. We judge that on the substance rather than by counting notices, because counting notices rewards whoever sends the most of them.
THIS PAGE IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE and we cannot tell you whether something is infringing. If it matters, talk to a lawyer.
