Repeat Infringers Policy

cookieclickeronline.io maintains a policy of removing content and, in appropriate circumstances, blocking users who repeatedly infringe copyright, including through comments or other user-submitted content. We may also, at our discretion, remove content from or restrict access for users who may be infringing or otherwise violating the intellectual property rights of others.

False Claims and Misrepresentations

Under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing, or that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be subject to liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees.

Warning: Filing a false DMCA notice may result in legal consequences. Only submit a DMCA notice if you have a good faith belief that the content is infringing your copyright.
