What’s this policy all about?
At Envato Market, we respect our community and intellectual property, and we expect our users to do the same. This policy explains how we, as the service provider of the Envato Market platform, address allegations of intellectual property infringement against content uploaded to our platform by Authors, and how copyright owners and authorised parties can submit valid notices of intellectual property infringement regarding this content. As allegations of intellectual property infringement are made against the content in the Author’s items, this policy also explains how Authors can respond when a DMCA takedown notice has been issued against their items. This policy forms part of the Envato Market Terms.
What are your options if you think your content is being used without your permission?
- Contact the Author directly
Consider whether you wish to contact the Author (seller of the item) who you think might be breaching your intellectual property rights. There may be a misunderstanding that you and the Author might be able to sort out without resorting to the formal processes outlined below.
- Submit a DMCA takedown notice
If you’re a copyright owner or have the authority to act on behalf of a copyright owner, then you may consider sending us a DMCA takedown notice requesting we take down content uploaded by an Author.
