Copyright Takedown

Last updated: [date]

Onyx Clip, operated by Haroon Qaiser, an individual based in New York, USA.

Onyx Clip respects the rights of creators. Our users must have the rights to every video they submit. If you believe someone used Onyx Clip to copy your work without permission, send us a notice as described below and we'll act on it quickly. We follow the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).

Good to know: clips made on Onyx Clip are private to the account that made them and are deleted automatically after 7 days. If a clip has been posted somewhere else, such as YouTube or TikTok, you'll also need to contact that platform, because we can't remove posts on other sites.

Where to send a notice

Email: support@onyxclip.com
Designated copyright agent: Haroon Qaiser, support@onyxclip.com

What your notice must include

  • Your physical or electronic signature
  • The copyrighted work you say was infringed
  • The material you want removed and enough detail for us to find it (for example the YouTube link that was submitted, the clip, or the account email, if you know it)
  • Your name, postal address, phone number and email address
  • A statement that you believe in good faith that the use isn't authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law
  • A statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you own the rights or are authorized to act for the owner

What we do

  • We review every complete notice promptly, usually within 2 business days.
  • If it's valid, we remove or disable the material and tell the account owner, including a copy of the notice (we may remove personal details).
  • We may also refuse future videos from the same source, or suspend the account.
  • Repeat infringers: we close the accounts of users who receive repeated valid notices.

If your content was removed by mistake (counter-notice)

If you believe material was removed by mistake or misidentified, send a counter-notice to the same address, including:

  • Your physical or electronic signature
  • What was removed and where it was before it was removed
  • A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you believe in good faith it was removed by mistake or misidentification
  • Your name, postal address and phone number
  • A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address (or, if you're outside the United States, any district where we can be found), and that you'll accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice

We'll forward a valid counter-notice to the person who sent the original notice. Unless they tell us within 10 business days that they've filed a court action, we may restore the material within 10 to 14 business days. Because files are deleted after 7 days, restored material may no longer exist.

Please be accurate

Under the law, anyone who knowingly makes a false claim in a notice or counter-notice can be liable for damages. If you're not sure your rights are infringed (for example because of fair use), consider getting legal advice first.
