DMCA and Copyright Policy

Our policy

IPTVLegal is a subscription service for viewers in Canada. We expect our content partners and our users to respect copyright. Content that is shown to subscribers must be offered by an operator that holds the rights to broadcast it. We respond to valid notices of claimed infringement and, where appropriate, remove or disable access to the material identified.

Trademarks, channel names and titles mentioned on this site belong to their respective owners. IPTVLegal is not affiliated with them, and their names are shown for illustration only.

How to send a DMCA notice

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) is a United States law. Many rights holders use its notice format worldwide, and we accept notices in this format. To be effective, your written notice should include:

1. Your physical or electronic signature, or that of a person authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
2. A description of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed, for example the title and owner.
3. A description of the material you want removed and enough detail for us to find it, such as the channel name, program title, date and time, or the page address (URL).
4. Your contact details: name, address, telephone number and email address.
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
6. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.

Send the notice by email with the subject line “DMCA Notice” to .

What happens next

When we receive a complete notice, we review it and, if it is valid, remove or disable access to the material identified. We may forward a copy of the notice, with your contact details, to the person affected so they can respond. Incomplete notices may be returned with a request for more information.

Counter-notice

If you believe material was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send us a written counter-notice that includes:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material that was removed and where it appeared before removal.
3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake or misidentification.
4. Your name, address and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the courts where you live and will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice.

If we receive a valid counter-notice, we may pass it to the person who sent the original notice. We may restore the material unless that person tells us they have started legal action.

Repeat infringers

Access is personal and cannot be resold. We may suspend or close the account of a user who is repeatedly the subject of valid copyright notices, in line with our terms of use.

Rights holders in Canada

Canadian copyright is governed by the Copyright Act, which has its own notice rules. If you are a rights holder in Canada, you may use the same email address to tell us about a claimed infringement. Include the same details: the work, the owner, where the material appears and how to reach you. We will review it in good faith. You can learn more about Canadian copyright on the Canadian Intellectual Property Office website.

False claims

Please make sure your claim is accurate before you send it. Under the DMCA, a person who knowingly misrepresents that material is infringing, or that it was removed by mistake, may be liable for damages. If you are not sure whether something infringes your rights, consider speaking with a lawyer first.
