DMCA / REPORT

1 · Our policy on copyright

RetroPlayland respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects our community to do the same. We comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512), the European Union Copyright Directive (Directive (EU) 2019/790), and the EU Digital Services Act (DSA, Regulation (EU) 2022/2065).

Our library is composed of homebrew, freeware, shareware, abandonware, and games released under permissive licenses. We do not knowingly host any title without permission or legal basis. If you are a rights holder and believe your work is appearing on our service without authorization, we will respond within 48 hours and remove valid claims within 7 days at the latest.

2 · How to file a DMCA takedown notice

To submit a notice of claimed infringement, email dmca@retroplayland.com with all of the following information:

1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (title, year, registration if available).
3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing — the exact URL(s) on retroplayland.com.
4. Your contact information: full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address.
5. A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner.

You may also use the contact form at retroplayland.com/contact selecting "Legal / DMCA" as the topic.

3 · Counter-notice procedure

If you believe your content was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may file a counter-notice. Send to dmca@retroplayland.com with:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material that was removed and the location where it appeared.
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief the material was removed by mistake.
4. Your name, address, phone number, and consent to jurisdiction in the federal district court for your address.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notice, we will restore the material within 10–14 business days unless the original complainant files a court action.

4 · Repeat infringers

It is our policy to terminate accounts of subscribers and account holders who are repeat infringers. Three substantiated DMCA notices against a single account in any 12-month period will result in permanent termination of that account.

5 · False claims & abuse

Filing a fraudulent DMCA notice may result in liability for damages, including costs and attorney fees. Under Section 512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing shall be liable for damages incurred by the alleged infringer.

If you receive a DMCA notice you believe is fraudulent, please file a counter-notice and contact us at dmca@retroplayland.com. We document every notice and counter-notice and have a no-tolerance policy for DMCA abuse.
