8. Copyright Complaints and Counter-Notices
+
+ If you believe that content rendered via blento infringes your copyright, you can notify us by
+ emailing hello@blento.app. Please include:
+
+
+
a description of the copyrighted work you believe has been infringed;
+
the exact URL(s) of the allegedly infringing content on blento;
+
your name, postal address, email, and where available a phone number;
+
+ a good-faith statement that the use of the material is not authorised by the copyright owner,
+ its agent, or the law;
+
+
+ a statement that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner
+ or authorised to act on their behalf;
+
+
your physical or electronic signature.

+
+ How removal works on blento. Because content you create on blento is stored on the
+ user’s own PDS on the AT Protocol network and not hosted by us, our remedy is to stop rendering
+ the identified content or site via blento. The underlying record remains under the user’s control
+ on atproto and may continue to be available through other applications.
+
+
Counter-notice
+
+ If your content was removed or access to it was disabled and you believe this was in error or
+ misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to
+ hello@blento.app containing:
+
+
+
your contact information (name, address, email);
+
identification of the material removed and the URL(s) at which it appeared;
+
+ a statement, made in good faith, that the material was removed as a result of mistake or
+ misidentification;
+
+
your physical or electronic signature.
+
+
+ We will review counter-notices in good faith and respond by email within a reasonable timeframe.
+ This process operates alongside the internal complaint-handling rights available to you under
+ Article 20 of the EU Digital Services Act.
+
+
Repeat infringers
+
+ We may, in appropriate circumstances and at our discretion, refuse service to atmosphere accounts
+ (DIDs or handles) that are repeatedly the subject of substantiated infringement notices, as well
+ as to parties who repeatedly submit unfounded, inaccurate, or abusive notices.
