Draft updated October 1, 2026. Effective date: pending adoption. Designated-agent registration and the public agent details below still require completion; this draft does not establish DMCA safe-harbor protection.
Reporting a concern
Digifender LLC operates Whumpo. Report suspected infringement or other hosted-content abuse to legal@digifender.com, including the relevant URL and enough detail to locate the material. Do not attach suspected child sexual abuse material, nonconsensual intimate images, credentials or unnecessary personal information. Other policy violations can be reported without claiming copyright ownership; see the Acceptable Use Policy.

Copyright notices
If you own a copyright or are authorized to act for its owner, a notice under 17 USC 512(c)(3) should include:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the copyrighted work, or a representative list if multiple works at one online site are involved.
- Identification and precise location of the allegedly infringing material, including URLs sufficient for us to find it.
- Your name and contact information, including address, telephone number and email where available.
- A statement of your good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the rights owner, its agent or the law.
- A statement that the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act for the owner of the allegedly infringed exclusive right.
Consider applicable licenses, exceptions and fair use before submitting a notice. Knowingly making a material misrepresentation can expose you to liability. We may request missing information. A notice is an allegation, not a judicial determination.
Counter-notices
If your material was removed for alleged copyright infringement and you believe there was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice that includes your signature; identification of the removed material and its former location; a statement under penalty of perjury of your good-faith belief in the mistake or misidentification; and your name, address and telephone number.
It must also state that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the district where your address is located, or, if outside the United States, any judicial district in which Digifender LLC may be found, and that you accept service of process from the original notifying party or its agent.
Handling reports
We will review notices and act expeditiously on valid infringement notices as applicable. Where appropriate, we will notify the affected account holder and provide a copy of the notice. A valid counter-notice is forwarded to the original complainant. Under the statutory procedure, material may be restored not less than 10 and not more than 14 business days after receipt of the counter-notice unless our designated agent receives notice that the complainant has filed an action seeking a court order restraining the disputed activity. A separate lawful policy basis can keep content unavailable.
Notices and counter-notices may be shared with the affected parties and advisers, so submit only necessary information. We will terminate repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances and accommodate qualifying standard technical measures. We also may act on apparent infringement or other unlawful material independently of a formal notice. Registration alone does not establish compliance with all safe-harbor conditions.
The US Copyright Office's Section 512 guidance describes the notice process and designated-agent requirements. This policy does not replace advice from your own lawyer about a particular claim.
