DMCA & Copyright Policy
Welcome to the official Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and Intellectual Property Policy page for Jenny-ModMinecraft.com. As a premier independent digital resource dedicated to providing the global Minecraft community with highly detailed modding tutorials, technical troubleshooting, and installation guidelines, we hold a profound, unwavering respect for the intellectual property rights of game developers, software engineers, independent mod creators, digital artists, and gaming journalists across the internet.
While our operational headquarters are located in Anchorage, Alaska, and our content serves a highly diverse global gaming community, the digital nature of web hosting, international internet law, and global search engine compliance dictates that we strictly adhere to universally recognized standards for copyright protection. This comprehensive policy outlines exactly how we comply with international intellectual property frameworks, explicitly including the provisions of the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512).
This legally binding document details the precise procedures for reporting alleged copyright infringement on our digital platform, as well as the exact steps required for submitting a formal counter-notification if you believe your proprietary code, gaming articles, or educational resources were removed in error. By accessing and using our website, you explicitly acknowledge and agree to the legal protocols set forth in this document.
Our Unwavering Commitment to Intellectual Property
We operate with a strict, foundational mandate to ensure that all original content hosted on our domain is lawfully produced, licensed, and utilized. This includes our proprietary Java troubleshooting guides, directory configuration timelines, dynamic layout, and comprehensive written tutorials on sandbox modification mechanics. In turn, we are equally committed to ensuring that our platform does not host, distribute, or promote external content that infringes upon the exclusive rights of third-party copyright holders.
Because our website operates at the intersection of gaming education and third-party software installation, it is absolutely crucial to establish the legal distinction between a game developer’s proprietary assets, an independent modder’s code, and our independent creative expression.
The fundamental mechanics of Minecraft, its character designs, block textures, official artwork, source code, and registered trademarks belong entirely and exclusively to Mojang AB and Microsoft Corporation. We do not claim ownership over any of these corporate assets. Any use of game titles, item names, or imagery on our site is done strictly under the doctrine of “Fair Use” for the sole purpose of educational commentary, news reporting, technical troubleshooting, and instructional guidance.
Similarly, the specific Java code, custom animations, and interactive AI logic found within third-party modifications belong to the independent developers who programmed them. We respect the grueling hours modders put into their craft. However, the creative and technical expression of our educational materials—such as the specific, proprietary written guides created by our editorial team to help users resolve a Forge installation error, our original infographics detailing directory structures, and our specific site architecture—are all protected intellectual property belonging to our platform.
We strictly prohibit the unauthorized scraping, duplication, translation, or commercial reuse of our proprietary text and formatting, and we extend that exact same rigorous protection to the intellectual property rights of others within the modding community. If you are a copyright owner, or an authorized legal agent acting on behalf of one, and you firmly believe in good faith that any material currently hosted on our domain violates your exclusive intellectual property rights, we have established a formal, streamlined, and legally compliant process for you to report these concerns directly to our administrative team for immediate investigation and resolution.
Designated Copyright Agent and Contact Information
To ensure that all legal notices are handled promptly, efficiently, and by the appropriate personnel trained in digital copyright compliance, we have appointed a specific Designated Copyright Agent for all intellectual property matters. All formal DMCA takedown notices and subsequent counter-notifications must be directed to our operational headquarters located in Alaska, United States.
Physical Address Jenny Mod Minecraft Attn: DMCA Designated Copyright Agent 1241 Muldoon Rd Anchorage, Alaska 99504 United States
Location Coordinates Latitude: 61.210622 Longitude: -149.732486
Phone Number (907) 345-0033
Important Note Regarding Processing Times: While we legally accept physical mail at our Anchorage headquarters, we highly recommend submitting your DMCA notices via our official email address to ensure the fastest possible processing time. Physical mail may experience significant processing and routing delays, whereas electronic submissions are logged, verified, and reviewed almost immediately by our administrative and legal team.
Filing a Formal DMCA Takedown Notice
If you believe in good faith that your copyrighted work (including but not limited to proprietary software scripts, Java .jar files, esports educational text, original gaming photography/graphics, or graphical user interface designs) has been reproduced, distributed, or displayed on our domain without your explicit authorization in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, you must submit a formal, written communication to our Designated Copyright Agent.
To be considered legally valid and actionable under international copyright frameworks (specifically 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)), your takedown notice must include all of the following six specific elements. Failure to include any of these required components may result in your request being delayed, paused for clarification, or dismissed entirely due to legal insufficiency.
1. Authorized Physical or Electronic Signature
Your formal notice must include the physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person explicitly authorized by law to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. In digital communications, typing your full legal name at the bottom of an official email is generally accepted as a valid, binding electronic signature.
2. Precise Identification of the Copyrighted Work
You must provide a clear, detailed, and unambiguous description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed. If multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, you may provide a representative list of such works. If the work involves a specific written paragraph explaining a mod loading sequence, a proprietary infographic, or a custom texture file, please provide irrefutable evidence of your original creation or publication (such as a link to your official CurseForge page, GitHub repository, or original blog post). Providing a formal copyright registration number or clear proof of original publication date is highly helpful and significantly expedites the review process.
3. Exact Identification of the Infringing Material
You must provide a clear, exact description of the material that you claim is actively infringing upon your rights and that is to be removed, or access to which is to be disabled. Crucially, you must provide the exact, specific URL(s) (web addresses) on our domain where the allegedly infringing material is currently located. General statements, vague descriptions, or simply directing our technical team to our homepage are legally insufficient. We must be able to locate the exact image, text paragraph, or tutorial snippet in question to take appropriate and surgical legal action.
4. Comprehensive Contact Information
We require adequate and accurate information to permit our Designated Copyright Agent to contact you regarding the status of your complaint and any necessary legal follow-up. This section must include your full legal name, your physical mailing address, your telephone number, and a valid email address where you can be reached during standard business hours.
5. Statement of Good Faith Belief
Your notice must include a clear, definitive statement asserting that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the exact manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its legally appointed agent, or the law (for example, that the use does not qualify as “Fair Use” for educational, critical, or nominative purposes under applicable US IP laws).
Example Statement: “I hereby state that I have a good faith belief that the disputed use of the copyrighted material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.”
6. Statement of Accuracy and Penalty of Perjury
Your takedown notice must conclude with a definitive statement that the information contained in the notification is completely accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the actual copyright owner or are legally authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
Example Statement: “I hereby state that the information in this Notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that I am the owner, or authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of the copyright or of an exclusive right under the copyright that is allegedly infringed.”
How We Process Takedown Notices
Upon receiving a fully compliant takedown notice at our official administrative email address or physical headquarters, we will take the following strict procedural actions to ensure total compliance with international and local intellectual property law:
Initial Review and Verification: Our technical and legal administrative teams will meticulously review the submission to ensure all six required elements are present and that the URLs provided point to active, existing pages on our domain. We will also perform a preliminary review to verify whether the content in question falls under the protection of fair use (e.g., quoting a brief excerpt from an official mod developer’s patch notes to provide context for a troubleshooting guide, versus plagiarizing an entire independent modding blog’s proprietary strategy guide).
Expedited Removal of Content: If the notice is deemed legally valid and the content is verified as protected creative expression, we will act expeditiously to remove, or disable public access to, the specific material that is alleged to be infringing upon your rights. We will sever the code, remove the image, or delete the text directly from our servers.
Notification to the Associated User or Contributor: If the allegedly infringing content was provided by a third-party guest writer, community forum contributor, or external developer, we will take reasonable and prompt steps to notify that individual that the material has been removed or disabled. We will also provide them with a full copy of the takedown notice so they understand the exact legal reason for the removal and the identity of the complaining party.
Filing a Formal Counter-Notification
If you are a contributing developer, guest gaming writer, or user of our platform and you firmly believe that your content, code, or writing was removed (or access to it was disabled) as a result of a mistake, a misidentification, or an invalid and fraudulent copyright claim, you have the legal right to file a formal Counter-Notification.
To be legally effective and initiate the restoration process, your counter-notification must be a formal written communication sent directly to our Designated Copyright Agent and must include all of the following elements:
1. Your Authorized Signature
Your physical or electronic signature (typing your full legal name is acceptable for electronic email submissions).
2. Identification of the Removed Material
A clear and precise identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the specific URL or location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled by our team.
3. Statement Under Penalty of Perjury
A formal statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.
Example Statement: “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good faith belief that the material identified above was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification.”
4. Contact Information and Consent to Legal Jurisdiction
Your full legal name, physical address, telephone number, and email address. You must explicitly state that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which we may be found (which is the District of Alaska). Furthermore, you must explicitly state that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original takedown notification or an authorized agent of such person.
Processing Counter-Notifications and Content Restoration
When our Designated Copyright Agent receives a fully compliant, legally valid counter-notification, we will promptly forward a complete copy of it to the original complaining party. We will officially inform them that we will replace the removed material or cease disabling access to it in ten (10) business days.
In strict adherence to international copyright timelines, we will restore the removed material and restore public access to it between ten (10) and fourteen (14) business days following our receipt of the counter-notice, unless our Designated Copyright Agent first receives formal written notice from the original complaining party that they have filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the user from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on our platform.
Strict Repeat Infringer Policy
In accordance with global intellectual property laws and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we have adopted a strict, uncompromising policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, the access privileges, partnership agreements, or accounts of contributors, guest writers, or publishers who are deemed to be repeat infringers.
We take the protection of creative and technical gaming work incredibly seriously. We will not tolerate the exploitation of our platform for intellectual property theft in the form of plagiarized modding tutorials, pirated graphical assets, or scraped proprietary articles from other gaming communities.
Legal Warning Regarding False or Fraudulent Claims
Please be advised that under Section 512(f) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, any person who knowingly and 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 severe civil liability and held liable for substantial financial damages.
This liability includes all costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by the alleged infringer, by any copyright owner or copyright owner’s authorized licensee, or by us, if we are financially or operationally injured by relying upon such misrepresentation. We strongly advise that you consult with a qualified intellectual property lawyer before submitting a formal Takedown Notice or a Counter-Notification to ensure that you fully understand your legal rights, obligations, and the severe potential consequences of making a false, fraudulent, or poorly researched claim regarding digital media.
