DMCA and Copyright Policy
Last Updated: August 23, 2026
WASticker - Sticker Maker respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects users to do the same. This policy explains how copyright owners or their authorized representatives may report content that they believe infringes their copyrighted work.
1. User Responsibility
Users are responsible for ensuring that they have the necessary rights or permission to use any photo, image, text, artwork, logo, character, design, or other material they import into or create with the App.
The App must not be used to create, reproduce, export, or share content that infringes copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights belonging to another person or organization. Creating a sticker from content available online does not automatically give the user permission to use, reproduce, distribute, or share that content.
2. Locally Stored User Content
Photos, stickers, sticker packs, drafts, and other projects created or imported by users are stored locally on their devices. The App does not operate a public platform where users upload or publish locally created sticker content for other users to browse.
Because locally stored content is not hosted or controlled by the App developer, the developer generally cannot access, review, remove, or disable content stored only on a user’s device. When a user exports or shares content through WhatsApp or another third-party service, that content is handled by the receiving service and may also be subject to its copyright reporting procedures.
3. Reporting Copyright Infringement
If you believe that copyrighted content provided, displayed, or distributed directly through the App infringes your rights, you may submit a written copyright notice by email.
Your notice should include your full legal name and contact information, as well as an identification of the copyrighted work that you believe has been infringed. If multiple works are involved, you may provide a representative list. Please provide a clear description of the allegedly infringing content, including enough information to locate it within the App. This may include the sticker pack name, template name, category, screenshot, or other identifying details.
You must also include a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or applicable law. Additionally, include a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner, followed by your physical or electronic signature.
Send the completed notice to Email: burakmungan7@gmail.com with the suggested email subject: DMCA Copyright Notice – WASticker - Sticker Maker. Incomplete notices may delay the review process.
4. Review and Response
After receiving a valid copyright notice, the reported material may be reviewed. When appropriate, reasonable action may be taken, including removing or disabling access to the reported content, temporarily restricting the affected content, requesting additional information from the reporting party, notifying the relevant content provider where applicable, or taking other action required by applicable law.
Submitting a notice does not guarantee that content will be removed. Each report may be reviewed based on the information provided, the nature of the content, and applicable law.
5. Counter-Notification
If content that you provided directly to the App has been removed or disabled because of a copyright notice and you believe that the removal resulted from a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification.
A counter-notification should include your full legal name and contact information, along with the identification of the content that was removed or disabled and its previous location within the App. You must include a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief that the content was removed or disabled because of a mistake or misidentification. Furthermore, include a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the appropriate court where required by applicable law and agreeing to accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notice or that person’s agent. Finally, provide your physical or electronic signature.
Send the counter-notification to Email: burakmungan7@gmail.com with the suggested email subject: DMCA Counter-Notification – WASticker - Sticker Maker.
A valid counter-notification may be forwarded to the person who submitted the original copyright notice. The affected content may be restored when permitted by applicable law unless the original reporting party provides notice of legal action within the applicable period.
6. False or Misleading Notices
Copyright notices and counter-notifications are legal communications. A person who knowingly submits false, misleading, or materially inaccurate information may be responsible for resulting damages, costs, or legal consequences.
Before submitting a notice, consider whether the use of the material may be authorized, licensed, or permitted under an exception or limitation to copyright law, such as fair use or fair dealing.
7. Trademark and Other Intellectual Property Reports
This policy primarily addresses copyright complaints. To report an alleged infringement involving a trademark, logo, brand identity, publicity right, privacy right, or another intellectual property right, send an email containing your full name and contact details, identification of the rights you own or represent, details of the content being reported, evidence supporting your claim, and the action you are requesting.
Send the report to Email: burakmungan7@gmail.com with the suggested email subject: Intellectual Property Report – WASticker - Sticker Maker.
8. Repeat Infringement
Where technically applicable and supported by sufficient evidence, access to app-provided content or related services may be restricted in cases involving repeated or serious infringement. Because user-created sticker projects are stored locally and the App does not require a public user account, it may not always be technically possible to identify individual users or remotely remove locally stored content.
9. Changes to This Policy
This DMCA and Copyright Policy may be updated to reflect changes to the App, applicable laws, or copyright reporting procedures. Changes become effective when the revised policy is made available. The “Last Updated” date at the beginning of this policy will be updated accordingly.
