DMCA & Copyright Policy

1. Respect for Intellectual Property & Zero-Storage Architecture

SaveForX ("SaveForX", "we", "us", or "our") is dedicated to complying with all applicable copyright and intellectual property laws, including the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 ("DMCA"), codified at 17 U.S.C. § 512.

Crucially, SaveForX operates strictly as a client-directed technical search and format utility. We do NOT host, upload, store, cache, replicate, or index any video, audio, or image media files on our infrastructure. All video and audio streams converted or downloaded via SaveForX are delivered directly from the public content delivery network (CDN) servers operated by X Corp. (formerly Twitter) to the user's local device.

Because our systems do not store or host any infringing media files, we cannot "remove" files from third-party hosting servers. However, we can block specific tweet URLs from being parsed or resolved through our web interface upon receipt of a valid, verifiable legal notification.

2. Our Position as a Tool, Not a Host

SaveForX functions analogously to a web browser or search engine utility: it translates public web URLs and extracts publicly declared media stream endpoints at the explicit command of the user. We do not curate, choose, review, or control the content that users submit for downloading.

The ultimate source and legal host of all media processed through our platform is X Corp. If content is removed, suspended, or made private on X itself, it immediately ceases to be accessible or downloadable through SaveForX.

3. How to Submit a DMCA Takedown Notice (17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3))

If you are a copyright owner or an agent authorized to act on behalf of an owner, and you believe in good faith that a public tweet URL being processed through SaveForX infringes your copyrighted work, you may submit a formal notification pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3).

To ensure swift and proper legal evaluation, your written notice MUST include each of the following required elements:

A. Physical or Electronic Signature: A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

B. Identification of the Copyrighted Work: Clear identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works (including copyright registration numbers or reference URLs where the original work can be verified).

C. Identification of the Material to be Blocked: The exact public URL on X (e.g., https://x.com/username/status/1234567890) that contains the allegedly infringing material, with sufficient detail to enable us to locate and block the link from our parser.

D. Contact Information: Your full legal name, title or relationship to the copyright owner, mailing address, telephone number, and active email address.

E. Good-Faith Statement: A formal statement that: "I have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law (such as fair use)."

F. Penalty of Perjury Accuracy Statement: A formal statement that: "The information in this notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, I declare that I am the copyright owner or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed."

4. Designated Notification Address & Response Timelines

All formal DMCA notifications and copyright inquiries must be directed to our designated email inbox: [email protected].

Please include the phrase "DMCA Takedown Request" in the subject line of your email to guarantee prioritization by our legal review team.

Expected Response Time: Upon receipt of a complete notice satisfying all statutory requirements of 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), we will investigate the matter and take prompt action to block the identified tweet URL from being processed by our system, typically within 24 to 72 business hours.

5. Counter-Notification Process

If you believe that a link or URL was blocked or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification (for example, where you hold proper copyright licensing or a clear fair use defense applies), you may submit a written counter-notification pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(2)-(3).

Your counter-notification must be in writing and include: (a) Your physical or electronic signature; (b) Identification of the material or URL that has been disabled and the location where it previously appeared; (c) A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification; (d) Your name, address, telephone number, and email address; and (e) A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal or competent local court and agreeing to accept service of process from the original claimant.

Submit counter-notifications directly to: [email protected].

6. Reporting Infringing Content Directly to X (Twitter)

Because SaveForX does not host the underlying media, blocking a link on SaveForX only prevents our utility from parsing it; the original video or audio remains publicly viewable and hosted on X's servers.

Therefore, we strongly advise copyright owners to also submit a copyright takedown notice directly to X Corp. To report infringing content to X, please visit the official X Copyright Reporting Form at: https://help.x.com/forms/dmca.

Once X Corp. removes the infringing tweet or disables the media stream on its platform, the content immediately becomes inaccessible across all third-party tools, including SaveForX.

7. Repeat Infringer Policy

In accordance with Section 512(i)(1)(A) of the DMCA, SaveForX maintains a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, access for users or automated actors who are found to be repeat infringers.

Because SaveForX operates without user accounts or stored profiles, we enforce this policy by implementing technical rate limits, firewall rules, and permanent IP address blocks against actors who repeatedly attempt to abuse our infrastructure to distribute or extract infringing content.

8. Misrepresentation Warning (17 U.S.C. § 512(f))

Please be aware that under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly and materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing, or that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be subject to liability for damages, including legal costs and attorneys' fees incurred by the alleged infringer, by the copyright owner, or by SaveForX.

Do not make false claims. If you are unsure whether material available on X infringes your copyright or qualifies for fair use, we strongly recommend consulting an attorney before submitting a notice.

9. Changes to This Policy

We reserve the right to modify, amend, or update this DMCA & Copyright Policy at any time. When updates occur, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of SaveForX following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.
