DMCA Policy

To submit a copyright infringement notice, you must provide a written communication that includes the following information:

• your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address;
• identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notice, a representative list of such works;
• identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to permit Vesta to locate the material, such as artist name, track title, album title, UPC, ISRC, URL, platform, account, or catalog information;
• a statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
• a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner; and
• your physical or electronic signature.

Incomplete, inaccurate, unsupported, abusive, or fraudulent notices may not be processed.

DMCA notices should be sent to Vesta's designated copyright contact at:

The Vesta Music Corporation

[Company mailing address]

Vesta may require additional information before taking action on any notice, especially where the notice involves complex catalog ownership, distributor relationships, label relationships, rights administration, multiple territories, royalty disputes, or other factual issues.

Upon receipt of a facially valid copyright infringement notice, Vesta may, in its sole discretion:

• remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material;
• notify the user, artist, label, distributor, account owner, rights holder, or other party who submitted or controls the content;
• request additional information from either party;
• suspend, restrict, terminate, or withhold access to the relevant content, account, catalog, payout, or services where appropriate;
• forward the notice or relevant information to platforms, partners, payment processors, distributors, or other parties where necessary or appropriate; and
• take any other action Vesta determines is necessary to protect its platform, partners, users, rights holders, and legal interests.

Vesta reserves the right to take action without prior notice where it believes such action is necessary or appropriate.

If you believe that content you submitted was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification to Vesta. A valid counter-notification must include:

• your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address;
• identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the location where the material appeared before it was removed or disabled;
• a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification;
• a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the appropriate court in the jurisdiction in which your address is located, or if your address is outside the United States, the jurisdiction of the courts in which Vesta may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notice or that person's agent; and
• your physical or electronic signature.

If Vesta receives a valid counter-notification, we may forward it to the original complaining party and may restore the removed material in accordance with applicable law, platform rules, partner requirements, and our internal policies.

Vesta reserves the right to suspend, restrict, terminate, or refuse accounts, catalogs, services, payouts, or content associated with users who are determined to be repeat infringers or who repeatedly submit content that is alleged or determined to infringe the rights of others. This may apply to individual artists, labels, distributors, catalog owners, account administrators, and other users.

Any person who knowingly misrepresents that material or activity is infringing, or that material was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be subject to liability under applicable law. Vesta reserves all rights to take action against users who submit false, misleading, abusive, or fraudulent notices or counter-notices.

Vesta's receipt of a notice or counter-notice, and any action taken in response, does not constitute a legal determination regarding infringement, ownership, licensing, validity of rights, payment entitlement, or the merits of any claim or defense. Vesta may act in its discretion to protect its platform, users, partners, payment systems, rights holders, and legal interests.

All DMCA notices and counter-notices should be sent to:
