Copyright and content complaints
Last updated: 8 September 2026
Woodnote hosts songs that our users choose to share. We respect copyright and we respond to valid notices. This page explains how to report content, who to send it to, and what happens next.
Reporting copyright infringement
To report content you believe infringes your copyright, send a notice to our designated agent below. Under 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3), your notice must include:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner, or a person authorised to act on their behalf.
- Identification of the copyrighted work you say has been infringed.
- Identification of the material you say is infringing, and information reasonably sufficient to let us locate it — please include the full share link.
- Your contact information: address, telephone number, and email address.
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on the owner's behalf.
Please note: under 17 U.S.C. §512(f), you may be liable for damages — including costs and attorneys' fees — if you knowingly materially misrepresent that material is infringing.

What we do when we receive a notice
On receipt of a valid notice we remove or disable access to the material expeditiously. Because shared content on Woodnote expires automatically within 30 days, removal is usually immediate and permanent.
We will acknowledge that we received your notice and tell you what we decided.
Sending a counter-notice
If your content was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to the agent above. Under 17 U.S.C. §512(g)(3) it must include your signature, identification of the material and where it appeared before removal, your name, address and telephone number, a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake or misidentification, and your consent to the jurisdiction of the US federal district court for your district — or, if you are outside the USA, the Eastern District of California.
Because shared content expires within 30 days, restoration may not be possible by the time a counter-notice takes effect.
Repeat infringers
Woodnote has no user accounts, so there is no account for us to terminate. We nevertheless will, in appropriate circumstances, remove content and refuse to serve or accept further uploads from a source we can identify from the technical information available to us at the time, such as the network address used to upload it. We do not keep identifying information about our users beyond what is described in our Privacy Policy.
Reporting other illegal content
To report anything else you believe is unlawful — including a recording of your voice made without your consent, or content that harasses or impersonates you — email [email protected] with the share link and a short description of the problem.
We will acknowledge that we received your report, tell you what we decided, and explain what you can do if you disagree. You do not need an account, and you do not need to be the person who created the content.
