DMCA Policy and Copyright Takedown Process
APKTerra.com respects the intellectual property rights of developers, publishers, content creators, copyright owners, and other rights holders.
If you believe that any content available on APKTerra infringes your copyrighted work, you may submit a copyright removal request using the process described below.
Our goal is to review legitimate copyright complaints promptly and, where appropriate, remove or restrict access to material that may infringe the rights of others.
This DMCA Policy explains the information that should be included when submitting a copyright complaint concerning content available on APKTerra.com.
Submit a DMCA Copyright Complaint

Your notice should include the following information:

Clearly identify the individual, company, developer, publisher, or organization that owns the copyrighted material. - Authorized representative information
If you are submitting the request on behalf of the copyright owner, confirm that you are authorized to act on their behalf. - Identification of the copyrighted work
Describe the copyrighted work that you believe has been infringed. If multiple works are involved, you may provide a representative list. - Identification of the allegedly infringing material
Provide the exact URL or URLs on APKTerra.com where the material can be found. Please include enough information for us to locate the content quickly. - Your contact information
Include sufficient contact details so we can communicate with you regarding your complaint, such as:- Full name
- Company or organization, if applicable

- Mailing address, where appropriate

What Happens After We Receive a Copyright Notice?
When APKTerra receives a sufficiently detailed and valid copyright complaint, we may review the reported material and take appropriate action.
Depending on the circumstances, this may include:
- Removing the reported content
- Disabling access to the material
- Updating or correcting attribution
- Reviewing relevant download links
- Contacting the content provider or publisher
- Requesting additional information from the complainant
We aim to handle legitimate copyright complaints as quickly and fairly as reasonably possible.
Submitting a complaint does not automatically guarantee removal. Each request may be reviewed based on the information provided and the circumstances surrounding the reported material.
Counter-Notification
If content has been removed or restricted following a copyright complaint and the affected party believes the material was removed because of a mistake or misidentification, they may contact APKTerra and provide a written counter-notification.
A counter-notification should contain sufficient information to identify the removed material, explain why the removal is believed to have been incorrect, and provide appropriate contact information.
Additional verification may be requested before any content is restored.
False or Misleading Copyright Claims
Please do not submit false, misleading, fraudulent, or knowingly inaccurate copyright complaints.
Under Section 512(f) of the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act, individuals who knowingly and materially misrepresent that content is infringing may potentially be held responsible for resulting damages, costs, or legal fees.
Copyright complaints should therefore only be submitted when the sender genuinely believes they have the legal authority to request removal of the identified material.
