DMCA & Copyright Policy

We respect copyright and respond to valid notices. This page explains how to send one, how to counter it, and what happens to repeat infringers.

1. Our position

Downloader.pics does not host, store, index or republish anyone's images. The tool retrieves files that a third-party website already serves publicly, processes them in the visitor's own browser, and saves them to that visitor's device. We keep no copies. Where an image is misused, the copy exists on the visitor's device or on whatever site they later uploaded it to — not here.

That said, if you believe this service is being used to infringe your copyright, we want to hear about it and we will act on a valid notice.

2. Sending a copyright notice

Send notices to our designated agent:

What your notice must include

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), a valid notice must contain all of the following:

1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorised to act on their behalf.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed — or, for multiple works at one site, a representative list.
3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it — the exact URL is essential.
4. Your contact details: name, postal address, telephone number and email address.
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorised 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 owner or authorised to act on the owner's behalf.

Incomplete notices cannot be actioned. We aim to acknowledge a valid notice within ⟨2–3⟩ business days.

3. Counter-notification

If material of yours was removed or disabled and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you may send a counter-notice under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g) containing:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material removed and the location where it appeared before removal.
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Your name, postal address and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for the district where you live (or, if outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the complaining party.

We may forward a counter-notice to the original complainant. If they do not file a court action seeking to restrain the activity within 10–14 business days, the material may be restored.

4. Repeat infringers

We terminate access for users who are the subject of repeated valid copyright notices, and we may block access without notice where abuse is clear.

5. Misrepresentation

Section 512(f) provides that anyone who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing — or that it was removed by mistake — may be liable for damages, including costs and legal fees. Please be certain before sending a notice.

6. Users: how to stay on the right side of this

• Download only images you own, or ones you have written permission from the rights holder to use.
• A supplier or dropshipping agreement does not automatically grant image rights — check what it actually says.
• "It was publicly visible" is not a licence.
• When in doubt, shoot your own product photography or ask the brand for its official media kit.
