Copyright and takedown desk
Last updated
KSCR Serials keeps its paperwork in order. If a rights holder believes a page here steps on their work, this desk will act on a properly filed notice.
What the desk can pull
KSCR Serials publishes opening chapters only. That means three categories can be removed or locked on request: the book page itself, the preview chapters attached to it, and the cover image used with it. Say which of the three you mean. If you mean all three, say so.
What a notice needs
A takedown request should carry enough for this desk to match a claim to a file. Send these six items together:
- The work you say is being copied — title and enough detail to identify it.
- The exact URL or URLs on kscr.org where the material sits.
- Your name and contact details, including the email address this desk should reply to.
- A clear statement that you believe the use is not permitted by the rights holder, its agent, or the law.
- A clear statement that the details above are correct and that you own the rights or are authorised to act for the owner.
- Your physical or electronic signature.
Where to send it
One address handles every copyright matter. Put "takedown" in the subject line so it lands with the right editor. Write to:
Copyright desk contact@kscr.org
What happens next
Each notice is read by a person, not a filter. If it holds up, KSCR Serials removes or disables access to the named page, chapters or cover without delay. The desk may ask a follow-up question, but a complete notice will not sit in the queue.
If we got it wrong
A takedown can be reversed. If material was pulled by mistake, send a counter-notice with the same kind of detail: what was removed, the URL it lived at, your contact details, a statement that you believe the removal was an error or a misidentification, and your signature. The desk will review it on the same terms.
When the desk stops replying
Notices that are repetitive, filed against material the sender clearly does not own, or used to harass the desk may be set aside without action. This page is a working policy, not legal advice; if your situation is complicated, bring your own lawyer.
