Copyright policy (DMCA)
We respect intellectual property and expect the same from the academies that use Acatudy.
Acatudy hosts content uploaded by academies and their users. We respond to copyright infringement notices under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512) and, for users in the EU, under the Digital Services Act.

How to send an infringement notice
Send the designated agent a written notice that includes:
- Your physical or electronic signature (or that of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner).
- Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed.
- Identification of the infringing material and the URL or enough information to locate it on Acatudy.
- Your contact details: name, address, phone number and email.
- A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.
On receiving a complete notice we will promptly remove or disable access to the material and notify the academy or user who uploaded it. Please note that under section 512(f), anyone who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for damages.
Counter-notice
If you believe your material was removed by mistake or misidentification, you can send the designated agent a counter-notice that includes:
- Your physical or electronic signature.
- Identification of the material that was removed and the location where it appeared before removal.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed by mistake or misidentification.
- Your name, address and phone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your district (or, if you live outside the US, any judicial district in which Acatudy may be found) and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice or their agent.
We will send a copy of the counter-notice to the person who filed the original notice. If within 10 to 14 business days they do not inform us that they have filed an action seeking to restrain the infringement, we may restore the material.
Repeat infringers
Where appropriate, we will terminate the accounts of academies or users who repeatedly infringe copyright. As a general rule, we consider a repeat infringer anyone who accumulates three valid notices without a successful counter-notice, although we may act sooner in serious cases.
Academies' content
Each academy is responsible for the content it publishes. If the material is on an academy's website, you can also contact the academy using the details in its legal notice.
