Takedown / DMCA

How to report copyright infringement, impersonation, or stolen work.

The fast path

Email admin@vibcod.dev with the subject line takedown request and include:

  1. The exact URL on vibcod.dev that you want removed (e.g. https://vibcod.dev/projects/example-slug).
  2. What's being infringed (your project, your screenshots, your code, your trademark, your name being used as a fake builder, etc.) and why.
  3. A link to the original work, if applicable.
  4. Your name, your role (rights holder / authorised agent), and how to contact you.
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use isn't authorised, and that the information in the notice is accurate.
  6. An electronic signature (typed name is fine).

If you're acting under the US DMCA specifically, mention that — we'll treat the notice as a DMCA notice for safe-harbour purposes.

What happens next

  • We acknowledge within 48 hours.
  • We act on valid notices within 7 days — usually faster. The listing comes down or is hidden pending review.
  • The submitter is notified that a takedown was filed and given a chance to respond.
  • If the submitter files a counter-notice, we'll forward it to you and weigh both sides before deciding.

Counter-notice

If your project was taken down and you believe it was a mistake (mistaken identity, fair use, you're the actual rights holder), email us with the project URL, your contact info, and your explanation. We'll re-review.

Bad-faith notices

We push back on takedown notices that look like competitive sabotage, trademark bullying, or attempts to suppress criticism. Misrepresenting yourself or your rights in a takedown notice can create liability for the sender under applicable law.

Other content concerns

For non-copyright issues — privacy violations, harassment, fraud, illegal content — same email address, same timeline. See also our privacy page and terms.
