DMCA Notice

Criminal Case is committed to respecting and protecting intellectual property rights. If you believe that any element within the game — including visuals, dialogue, characters, narrative content, interface assets or other materials — violates your copyright, you may submit a DMCA-style notice for an internal investigation. All claims are reviewed carefully and impartially, with special attention to the originality of the content and the context in which it is used. Our goal is to maintain a fair environment where creative work is treated responsibly and disputes are resolved transparently.

1. Information to include in a notice

  • Your full name and a reliable method for us to contact you regarding the outcome of the review. This ensures that any clarifications, follow-up questions or updates can be communicated promptly.
  • A detailed description of the copyrighted work that you believe has been infringed. The more specific your explanation, the faster our team can compare the disputed material with the original.
  • A clear and unambiguous description of the exact content within the game that you believe infringes your rights. If relevant, include scene context, character names, narrative segments or visual elements that may help identify the issue accurately.
  • A formal statement confirming that you hold a good-faith belief that the disputed use of the material is not authorised by the copyright owner, an assigned representative or the law. This helps prevent false or accidental claims.
  • A second statement confirming that the information in your notice is accurate to the best of your knowledge, and that you are the copyright owner or are legally authorised to act on their behalf. This affirmation is required for a proper internal review.

2. How notices are reviewed

Once your notice is submitted, it undergoes a structured internal assessment similar to an investigative procedure within the game. Our team compares the disputed material against the copyrighted work, examines the context of usage and evaluates whether the content falls under permitted use, original creation, unintentional similarity or potential infringement. In complex situations, additional analysis or clarification may be required.

If the claim is validated, the disputed content may be removed, altered or restricted to prevent further use. If no infringement is found, the content remains unchanged and the decision is documented for future reference. Every notice is handled with care to ensure that both creators and players are protected, and that all materials used in Criminal Case meet ethical, legal and creative standards.
