DMCA Policy

1. Overview

This DMCA Policy applies to the independent informational website known as Capcut Pro APK. This website is not CapCut, ByteDance, an official publisher, an authorized distributor, or a verified security laboratory. Any references to CapCut are used for identification and informational purposes only.

We respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect users, contributors, and visitors to do the same. It is our policy to respond to valid notices of alleged copyright infringement in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 512.

This policy explains how copyright owners may submit a takedown notice, how affected users may submit a counter-notification, and how we handle repeat infringement.

2. Copyright Infringement Policy

We do not knowingly host or promote content that infringes another person’s copyright. If copyrighted material appears on this website without permission, authorization, license, or a legally recognized exception, the copyright owner or authorized agent may request removal or disabling of access.

Upon receiving a valid DMCA notice, we may:

  • Remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material
  • Notify the user or party responsible for the material when appropriate
  • Review the notice for completeness and legal sufficiency
  • Document the notice and any action taken
  • Terminate access for repeat infringers where applicable

The linked APK or any third-party file referenced on this website has not been independently inspected by us. We do not claim that any APK is official, safe, malware-free, ad-free, certified, verified, the latest release, or entitled to premium features. CapCut Pro features require the appropriate membership in the official app.

3. Submitting a DMCA Takedown Notice

A copyright owner or an authorized agent may submit a DMCA takedown notice if they believe that material available on this website infringes their copyright.

To be valid, the notice must include all of the following:

  1. Identification of the copyrighted work

    A clear description of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed. If multiple copyrighted works are involved, a representative list may be provided.

  2. Identification of the allegedly infringing material

    A clear description of the material claimed to be infringing, including enough information for us to locate the material on the website.

  3. A statement of good faith belief

    A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, the owner’s agent, or the law.

  4. A statement of accuracy and authority

    A statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is the copyright owner or is authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

  5. Physical or electronic signature

    A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Incomplete, unclear, or legally insufficient notices may not result in removal until sufficient information is provided.

4. Review and Takedown Procedure

When we receive a valid DMCA takedown notice, we will review the notice and take appropriate action. If the notice meets the requirements of the DMCA, we may remove or disable access to the identified material.

Our takedown process generally includes:

  • Reviewing the notice for required information
  • Identifying the material described in the notice
  • Removing or disabling access to the material when required
  • Notifying the affected user or contributor when appropriate
  • Keeping a record of the notice and response
  • Considering repeat infringement history where applicable

Removal of material does not mean we have made a final legal determination regarding infringement. It means we have responded to a facially valid DMCA notice in accordance with our policy.

5. Counter-Notification Process

If material has been removed or disabled due to a DMCA notice, the affected user or contributor may submit a counter-notification if they believe the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.

A valid counter-notification must include all of the following:

  1. Identification of the removed material

    A clear description of the material that was removed or disabled and the location where it appeared before removal.

  2. Statement under penalty of perjury

    A statement under penalty of perjury that the user has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.

  3. Consent to jurisdiction

    A statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the appropriate federal court for the user’s judicial district, or if outside the United States, consenting to the jurisdiction of a federal court in the United States.

  4. Agreement to accept service of process

    A statement that the user will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original DMCA notice or that person’s agent.

  5. Physical or electronic signature

    A physical or electronic signature of the user submitting the counter-notification.

6. Restoration of Removed Material

After receiving a valid counter-notification, we may forward it to the party who submitted the original DMCA notice.

Material may be restored or access may be re-enabled within the timeframe permitted by the DMCA, typically not less than 10 business days and not more than 14 business days after receipt of a valid counter-notification, unless we receive notice that the original complaining party has filed a legal action seeking a court order to restrain the user from engaging in infringing activity.

We reserve the right not to restore material where restoration would violate applicable law, court order, platform policy, or this website’s terms.

7. Repeat Infringer Policy

We may terminate or restrict access for users or contributors who repeatedly submit or upload infringing material.

Repeat infringement may include:

  • Multiple valid DMCA notices involving the same user or contributor
  • Reposting material that was previously removed due to a valid copyright complaint
  • Attempting to evade copyright enforcement measures
  • Submitting content without authorization after prior warnings

We may apply this policy at our discretion based on the facts and circumstances of each case.

8. Misrepresentations

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly makes a material misrepresentation that content is infringing, or that content was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be liable for damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees.

Anyone submitting a DMCA notice or counter-notification should ensure that their claim is accurate, lawful, and made in good faith.

9. Fair Use and Lawful Use

Some uses of copyrighted material may be permitted by law, including fair use, commentary, criticism, news reporting, education, research, or other legally recognized exceptions.

Before submitting a DMCA notice, copyright owners should consider whether the material at issue may be protected by fair use or another lawful basis.

10. No Affiliation With CapCut or ByteDance

This website is an independent informational site. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, maintained by, or authorized by CapCut, ByteDance, or any official CapCut publisher or distributor.

Nothing on this website should be interpreted as an official statement from CapCut or ByteDance. References to CapCut editing capabilities, such as trimming, splitting, multitrack editing, captions, effects, and background removal, describe general product capabilities that may depend on platform, device, region, or plan.

11. Policy Updates

We may update this DMCA Policy from time to time to reflect legal, operational, or website changes. Updates take effect when posted on this website. Continued use of the website after changes are posted means the updated policy applies.
