DMCA Policy

Effective: September 5, 2026 · Last updated: September 5, 2026

MyIPShow is a one-person site, built and run by me, Pavel Ahmed, in Kushtia, Bangladesh. This DMCA Policy explains how to report content on this site that you believe infringes your copyright, what your notice needs to include, and how I respond. It is here so that a genuine copyright concern reaches me directly and gets resolved, without the site ever being used to host someone else's work.

What Does This DMCA Policy Cover?

This policy covers any content published by MyIPShow that you believe reproduces or substantially reproduces work you own the copyright to. That includes text in articles, diagrams, original SVG illustrations, page design elements, and any image hosted on the site.

It does not cover the following, because none of them are works published by MyIPShow in the first place:

• IP geolocation data — produced live by third-party providers, not stored or published by this site.
• DNS records — retrieved from public name servers at the moment of a query.
• robots.txt files — fetched from the target website, not authored here.
• User agent strings, ping results, speed test numbers — generated by your own browser and connection.
• Third-party names and trademarks — used for identification and comparison, not as original content.

How Do You File a DMCA Notice?

Email the notice to myipshowofficial@gmail.com with the subject line "DMCA Notice — [the URL of the infringing page]". Please send it as a direct email rather than through the contact form, so the required information is not truncated.

A template you can copy and fill in is provided below. Notices that contain every element in the checklist get actioned fastest.

To: myipshowofficial@gmail.com
Subject: DMCA Notice - [URL of the infringing page on myipshow.com]

I am the owner of the copyrighted work described below, and I believe in good faith
that the use of the material described below is not authorised by me, my agent, or
the law.

1. The copyrighted work:
   [Describe the original work, with a URL where I can see it.]

2. The infringing material on MyIPShow:
   [Exact URL on myipshow.com where the material appears.]

3. My contact details:
   Full name:
   Email:
   Phone (optional):
   Mailing address:

4. Good faith statement:
   I have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorised by the
   copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

5. Accuracy and authority statement:
   I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notice is
   accurate and that I am the copyright owner or authorised to act on the owner's
   behalf.

6. Signature:
   [Typed or electronic signature]

Date: [YYYY-MM-DD]

What Must Your Notice Include?

To be actioned under this policy and under the DMCA, your notice needs all of the following. If any element is missing, I will email back asking for it rather than acting on an incomplete notice.

• Identification of the copyrighted work — what you own, with a URL or a clear description if the work is offline.
• Identification of the infringing material — the exact URL on myipshow.com, not just the domain.
• Your contact information — full legal name, email address, and a phone number or mailing address.
• A good faith statement — that you believe the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
• An accuracy statement — under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are the owner or authorised to act for the owner.
• Your signature — a typed or electronic signature is sufficient.

Before you send a notice, consider whether your use case is actually a copyright claim or something else — a trademark complaint, a privacy concern, or a dispute over factual accuracy. Those go through the Contact page and are handled differently.

How Does MyIPShow Respond?

Every notice is read personally, usually within 24 to 72 hours. Depending on what the notice covers:

• Valid notice, content is infringing — the content is removed or replaced with a properly attributed version within a few days. You will get an email confirming the action.
• Valid notice, content is fair use or licensed — I reply explaining why the use is permitted, with the reasoning and any licence attached.
• Incomplete notice — I reply asking for the missing elements so the notice can be processed correctly.
• Mistaken or abusive notice — I reply declining the request and explaining the basis. Frivolous notices may be documented.

Content is not removed merely because a notice was received. Action is taken when the notice holds up under the required elements, which is also how the process is designed to work.

What About Counter-Notifications?

If content you submitted to this site is removed in response to a DMCA notice and you believe the removal was a mistake, you can send a counter-notification to myipshowofficial@gmail.com with the subject line "DMCA Counter-Notification". A valid counter-notification must include:

• Identification of the removed content and the location it was at before removal.
• Your full name, address, and phone number.
• A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of a court where MyIPShow operates, or where you live if outside that area.
• A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief the content was removed by mistake or misidentification.
• Your physical or electronic signature.

Because MyIPShow does not host user-uploaded content — there are no accounts, no uploads, and no user posts — counter-notifications in practice apply only to disputes over original content published by the site itself, which are usually resolved by direct email before reaching this stage.

What Is the Repeat Infringer Policy?

MyIPShow does not host user-generated content, so there is no repeat-infringer list of users to maintain. What the site does maintain is a commitment not to publish infringing content in the first place: articles are written from primary sources, images are either generated by the site or openly licensed, and any quoted material is short, attributed, and used for comment or explanation. If the same rights holder reports multiple issues, those reports are prioritised, and any pattern in the site's own publishing is corrected at the source rather than patched one URL at a time.

What About Fair Use and Trademarks?

Some material on this site quotes or references third-party work for the purpose of explanation, comparison, or comment. That use is intended to fall within fair use or the equivalent local exception. Examples include short quotes from technical documentation, references to RFC numbers and titles, and discussion of how third-party services behave.

Trademarks and product names mentioned on the site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification only. Their use does not imply any affiliation with, sponsorship by, or endorsement from the trademark holder, and does not make any claim of ownership. If a trademark use on this site is inaccurate or misleading, tell me through the Contact page and it will be corrected.

What Happens If a Notice Is False?

Sending a DMCA notice that contains material misrepresentations can expose the sender to legal liability under the DMCA in the United States and equivalent provisions in other jurisdictions. That includes damages, costs, and attorney's fees incurred by the party wrongly targeted. If you are unsure whether a specific use infringes, consult a qualified legal professional before sending a notice. This page explains the process; it is not legal advice.

How Does This Policy Change?

If the process for filing notices changes — a new contact address, a different response timeline, or a new legal requirement — this page is updated and the "Last updated" date at the top changes. Historic versions are not archived, but the effective date of the current version is always visible.
