DMCA & Copyright Policy

At Bite Drift, we respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect our users to do the same. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), Title 17, United States Code, Section 512(c), copyright owners or authorized agents may submit valid takedown requests to our designated DMCA Agent.

As an online platform, we operate under the DMCA’s “safe harbor” provisions, which protect us from liability for copyright infringement claims when we act in compliance with the law.
