Copyright & Repeat-Infringer Policy

Version 1 · Effective date: October 26, 2026

Aloop respects copyright. The videos, photographs, and descriptions on Aloop are uploaded by the people who list items. We do not create that material, and we act when we are told it infringes someone's rights.

This policy forms part of our Terms of Service — see section 12A.

1. Reporting copyright infringement

Service provider: Tarnish Inc., 418 Broadway #12344, Albany, NY 12207

If you believe material on Aloop infringes your copyright, send a notice to our designated agent:

Copyright Agent, Tarnish Inc.
418 Broadway #12344
Albany, NY 12207
+1-929-529-7717
reports@aloop.jewelry

You can also send your notice through our report form, which asks for each of the six things below. A notice sent through the form reaches our designated agent and is handled exactly like one sent by email.

To be effective under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), your notice must include:

A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or someone authorized to act for them.
Identification of the copyrighted work you say has been infringed.
Identification of the material you say is infringing, with enough detail for us to find it — a link to the listing is best.
Your address, telephone number, and email address.
A statement that you have a good faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and — under penalty of perjury — that you are authorized to act for the copyright owner.

Sending a notice has consequences. Under § 512(f), anyone who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing may be liable for damages, including costs and legal fees.

2. What we do when we receive a notice

We disable access to the material. The listing stops being publicly viewable, and we tell the person who uploaded it what we did and why, including a copy of the notice.

3. Counter-notification

If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you may send a counter-notification to the same address. It must include your signature; identification of the material and where it appeared; a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification; and your name, address, and telephone number, together with a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for your district (or, if you are outside the United States, for any district in which we may be found) and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the notice.

If we receive a valid counter-notification, we will forward it to the person who sent the original notice and tell them we will restore the material in 10 business days. If they do not tell us within that period that they have filed an action seeking a court order to restrain you, we will restore the material — not less than 10 and not more than 14 business days after we received your counter-notification.

Restoration concerns the copyright removal only. If the material also breaks another of our rules or the law — for example, it lists a stolen item, exposes someone's private information, or is unsafe — we may keep restricting it on that ground, and we tell you which ground applies. We also decide separately, and do not rely on this process, whether we have the rights we need before using any material in advertising Aloop creates.

Sending a counter-notification also has consequences. § 512(f) applies to material misrepresentations in a counter-notification in the same way it applies to a notice.

4. Repeat infringers

We terminate the accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances. This is our policy and we follow it.

How it works. Every copyright notice we act on is recorded against the account that uploaded the material. We treat an account as a repeat infringer when it has been the subject of more than one notice we acted on, and the pattern indicates the account is repeatedly posting material it does not have the right to post. In deciding, we consider how many notices there have been and how far apart, whether the material was restored after a counter-notification, whether the same rights owner or several are involved, and whether the account has been told before.

A notice that is withdrawn does not count against an account. Material restored after a counter-notification does not count on its own, but we still weigh it with the other circumstances above.

What termination means. Depending on the circumstances we may warn the account, restrict its ability to list, suspend it, or permanently close it. For a clear repeat infringer, or for an account that shows it is deliberately infringing, we close the account permanently — and we may do that on a first notice where the infringement is blatant.

We may also act on what we see ourselves, without waiting for a notice.

5. Trademark and other rights

Notices about trademark or other intellectual property rights go to the same address, or through the report form. The DMCA counter-notification process above applies to copyright, and other claims are handled case by case.

6. Changes

We may update this policy as section 20 of our Terms of Service describes. The current version is always the one on this page. Material we remove under this policy is also taken out of Aloop's marketing.
