This Policy explains how CribNosh may handle copyright complaints, takedown requests, flags, counter-notices, appeals, reinstatement decisions, and repeat-infringer enforcement.

This Policy supplements our Terms of Service, Community Guidelines, Privacy Policy, and Moderation, Reporting, and Appeals Policy.

A copyright complaint may relate to content on CribNosh such as:

• videos;
• photos;
• recipes;
• stories;
• comments;
• reviews;
• profile content;
• creator menus;
• branded assets used without permission; or
• other material alleged to infringe copyright.

We may provide a formal copyright or takedown form. A valid complaint may require information such as:

• the claimant's identity and contact details;
• the copyrighted work allegedly infringed;
• the location or URL of the allegedly infringing content;
• a good-faith statement;
• an authority statement where applicable; and
• any legally required declaration or signature.

We may reject, close, or request more information for incomplete, unsupported, abusive, or clearly invalid complaints.

We may also allow users to flag content for possible copyright review. A flag is not automatically treated as a complete formal legal notice.

After review, CribNosh may:

• take no action;
• request additional information;
• limit distribution;
• remove or disable access to content;
• preserve snapshots, metadata, and case records;
• notify relevant users;
• open a formal case file;
• allow counter-notice or appeal where applicable; and
• take repeat-infringer action where justified.

If your content was removed and a counter-notice path is available, we may require:

• your identity and contact information;
• the affected content or case reference;
• a statement that you believe the removal was mistaken or wrongful;
• any legally required jurisdiction or consent statement; and
• any other information reasonably needed to assess the request.

We may reject, close, or request more information for incomplete, unsupported, abusive, or legally defective counter-notices.

Some copyright outcomes may also have an appeal path. Where available:

• deadlines may apply;
• not every case is appealable;
• evidence requirements may apply; and
• we may close repetitive or unsupported appeals.

CribNosh may take escalating action against accounts or users we reasonably believe repeatedly infringe copyright or repeatedly misuse copyright processes.

That action may include:

• warning;
• content removal;
• visibility restriction;
• feature restriction;
• account suspension; or
• permanent account termination.

We may preserve:

• case references;
• complaint submissions;
• counter-notices;
• appeals;
• content snapshots;
• metadata;
• related account records; and
• decision history

for legal, moderation, operational, repeat-violation, or dispute purposes.

Submitting a complaint, counter-notice, or appeal does not guarantee a particular result.

CribNosh may act based on the information available, the applicable law, Platform rules, safety considerations, and our operational processes.

For copyright, takedown, or counter-notice matters, use the relevant CribNosh legal form where available or contact:
